Default what color to powdercoat my stock rims?...

Just like the post says...I have an fm tc with limo tint, smoked tail, lights blue headlights, and dropped on tein s techs. I was just wondering what color you guys think would look the best? I was thinking either a dark gunmetal, gloss black, maybe get a little nuts and do like a tein green color, who knows. Just let me know what you think

IMO, they don't look good when done in a dark color. Especially with a dark car. Just too much "dark" and they don't really seem to go well.

I do think the black or the gunmetal would look good though.

No, definately think he meant powder coating the entire wheel tein green.

I agree with ack, too much dark on dark. If you were to get them powder coated, go with a bright bronze or gold.
