The big question has come on what color should I paint my rims... I have dodge avenger rims on the car which are 17's. My body is dark green and the whole top of my car is black since I got 5% tint done today. So now I am needing a good color in which to paint my rims until I get real rims. I was thinking about taping them off and putting a couple coats of white on then some clear... after prepping of course but tell me what you think. My friend said I should hook them up in black.

Heres a picture of my car with its rims...

I am wanting to paint them due to some flaking paint on them already.

i would probably go black, no offense but those arent the greatest looking wheels for a talon and the white would just make it stand out to much, besides black will hide the imperfections in the wheel and white will inhanse them
 
Definately black. Black is pretty much a universally good color for rims. At least in my opinion. Some exceptions though LOL [= Good luck.
 
Actually I think a really nice dark bronze would be a nice match for his car.. IONO, Maybe its just me but I like bronze wheels over black. Black is too "average" now and days.
 
I like a bronze every once in awhile too, but like turbizzle said, those rims dont look the greatest on a talon so it would make them stand out more. Now if Ramphix actually likes the wheels.....well then he wouldnt have to worry about not standing out.
