Default what color should i powder coat my wheels?

Decided that im gonna roll on my miata wheels this summer for a while. But i want to get them powder coated. I was thinking a flat or glossy black with a Polished or red lip. opinions wanted. BTW the wheels weight 9lbs.



Would they look good powder coated black and have a red lip like these. also where can i find paint that has that same color?

painting a lip on a wheel with no lip is downright retarded. also no you can not get that same color because those wheels are anodized not painted. just paint them white like hibbs said
