I probably shouldnt have voted....I bought his painted stock rims (painted exactly like above), and I love them. I think the blue lip really sets them off. I get compliments on the car all the time.
Ive noticed after a couple thousand miles that Im getting rock chips, Id suggest gettimgh them powder coated if possible. I believe that will give you a more durable finish!
I bought mine painted black and they looked a bit crap. Was the finish more than the colour. Had them restored back to original now and I am much happier.
It,s your ride,do with it what makes you happy! sometimes things in pictures don't look as well as they do in real life. Im a silver wheel man myself but have friends that have black...even purple rims
TBH, not my cup of tea. The pin-stripe, "time-attack" rim style has been done to death over the last few years, and is starting to look a bit tired now IMO.
I agree with sixspeed, been done to death now. Also i think you'd really struggle with resale and be forced to restore them to silver. And how would that make photos with Matt's car, your car and my car look? Bad, i reckon!
i like them, go for it who cares if its be done before, if you like it thats all that matters, end of the day its a paint job that can be changed later
