Default What Color of Rims?,

I have some raching hart rims i got from a friend for real cheap, some little 15's, they're a step up from my 14 inch steelies. =]

im wondering what color i should paint these, itll be a diy paint job at home. My car is a 1993 honda civic SI. Its lowered on skunk2 coilovers (havent got around to gettin aftermarket shocks yet, need another paycheck) and has 15% tint all around. Wondering if i should paint the rims black, or gold. If i go gold, ill be gettin some black lug nuts.

Any input?

These rims are temporary but ive wanted to do a DIY paintjob for a while. Plan to get some 16's later.

Input please =]

nah. car isnt in great condition. Its a project car, got it for 1800, swapped a b16a into it.

Its a work in progress, doing a DIY paintjob to white later, this rims will probably be gone by that point, going black w/ chrome lip later, nothing too fancy.

just wonderin which would look better with black car, tinted windows, im thinkin gold.

why are you going to even bother painting the wheels if they will be gone by the time you get the car painted...just rock your steelies or the racing harts as they are.
