Gunmetal or Black EVO 9 Rims on WHITE 2G??

[GSX-911]

As title questions, what do you guys think ?? ON a white 98 GSX All stock appearance.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Photoshop some on, and I'll tell you my opinion..

 

[gho5tone]

Gunmetal. Black is played out unless you're going for black rims with white lip.

Why don't you go with what you think looks better? It's not our car.

I have some EVO 9 wheels as well and I'm about to powdercoat mine. I'm having a tough time deciding as well. I want that black chrome color IF I can. Almost compared to that duplicolor graphite gray.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Gunmetal.

I got mine done I high gloss black. I felt it would go with my panda theme. I just got the tires yesterday hope to have them on the car tonight. I'll post a few pics if you want.

I'm in the same boat as you. I just got mine sand blasted and can't decide between bronze or gunmetal especially since my gsx is white and when the sun hits it turns bluish.

Go with gunmetal, black rims only look good if it has a painted lip.

Doubleot, wheels look nice (silver wheel weight draws some attention though). Also what size tire you running on those?

I'm getting a set of those soon and was gonna try and run a 245, do you think those will have a rubbing issue. How do yours fit. Also sorry OP for throwing all my ?s in your thread.
BNasty your opinion on this ? matters also since your car seems a little lower that Doubleot and i plan to be slammed.

 

[Doubleot]

245's would definitely rub If you wanted to "slam" your car. I've only got about 1/8" of clearance between the knuckles front and rear.

 

[dsmspick]

gunmetal.

 

[Mschooley]

Gunmetal for sure

 

[NaturalTravesty]

Bronze or gold!

 

[Kait]

bronze or gold!

yes!

 

[Sirius Spyder]

I'm not a fan of the flat black. I'd say go with the gun metal unless you try to make a white and black color scheme for your car.

 

[400hp93talon]

Either way OP it will look pretty damn good!
