Default What can I do?

My car now has these rims on it (bought it this way)


Do you think I can trade these for anything decent? Or would painting it gunmetal make it better? I need suggestions, cause these rims make my car look ghay.

Try also providing an overall picture of your car so we can see the rims on the car. Might also try Appearance/Cosmetic, they might have some useful suggestions.

You could paint everything but the lip black. You could aslo paint everthing black and keep the face of the spokes shiny. Just my 0.02

Cheers.

Looks are a matter of personal preference. If you don't like the way they look, then get wheels whose looks you like, or do whatever you need to them to make them look the way you like. Nobody here is going to know what you like as well as you do.

They are not worthless. Be creative and do something to them that you think you would like. Almost everyone hates my rims and I doubt I could sell them for more than a cup of coffee but I love them and that's all that counts.

Cheers.

You gotta do what makes you happy man, what wheels are you interesetd in?? 2001 Civic 15" steelies? I doubt anyone would want to trade for a smaller rim. lol
maybe if somone had the same size steelies, for your aluminum rims. if those are 14" rims, you could aks to trade somone for 14" steelies and EX hubcaps which look better.

You got the USDM bling on your ride, you got the reliable all-seasons Michelins on your ride, why you complianing for man? lol j/k great tires actually.

Honestly I think you should save your energy and money painting these rims, they still gonna look USDM.
