What color should i paint my GSX rims..????

[Spyder1]

I have a black DSM and i just got sum almost Mint gsx rims barely used. I"m thinking to paint them Gold or just leaving them alone since the're so mint. But I don't know what to do..??? I"ve seen a few gold Gsx rims on black and white dsms and they look hot...! What should i do..?? Can any of you guys post sum pics of your gold gsx rims...? thanks for any replys....

Gold or Bronze would look hot, especially on a Black or white car, although many times it depends on a certain person's taste, but I like gold or bronze so i say go for it.

Yup, I vote for bronze.

A buddy of mine has an 06 WRX and he just painted the OE wheels bronze (original color was silver). It MADE the car. It looks 10 times better now.

Bronze wheels look great with almost any color car. Especially Red, Electric Blue, and black.

glossy gold =D

Wow...that's true about the bronze.... I never seen anyone paint gsx's bronze. Does anyone out there have a pic of there bronze Gsx's..?????.. I guess rite now i'm probably leaning more on the Gold look...but i'll would really like to check out someone's bronze setup, maybe i'll change my mind....thanks for the advice...

I would think the Gold scheme would work? Maybe some black.

def go gold or bronze, but on rims that are of value like these, i would recommend powder coating....it's usually not that expensive and will last and look as good as the original...

www.columbiacoatings.com
www.eastwoodco.com

these places should have the powder
make sure to clear powder them as well for glossiness and longevity....i had my gst rims powdered and they looks great, check out the sites, you'll be suprised on what powder is available and how amazing it looks, i know i'm hooked.

Check my gallery bronze is the way to go.

+! on Bronze.

 

[iceman21221]

Gold has a clean brighter look were the bronze has more of a darker dirty look.

Bronze for a black car and gold for a white car.
The powder coating is alot more durable then painting.

 

[jaamz777]

black.

 

[Gary 420A RS]

Gold!

 

[Spyder1]

Whatever color you want. That's the point of this whole hobby, doing what YOU want.

Here is my 1gb with some GSX wheels that I got for $175 they were mint silver as well, I sprayed them, and they came out great, but powdercoating is 10X better, now I have a new BLACK 1gb with Silver GST wheels that will be POWDERCOATED dark bronze.

My car will look similar to this, just on GST wheels instead of those SI looking replicas .

Paint them blue.

 

[calreef18]

Gold or black imo, and if you want something different you could always go crazy with an anodized blue or pink look to stand out.

 

[No_Skillz]

RAINBOW!!!

 

[greengoblin]

Bronze

 

[onegeenewbie]

Bright orange.

 

[Eclipse98Spyder]
