Looking to powder coat my stock wheels soon... but having a damned hard time choosing a color... choose your favorite.

def not white....go with the Darker Silver/Charcoal...

Normally i would say Gold but Due to the flat surface of the spokes i don't think it would look all that great.

I dont know why, but I never really got into the gold STI wheels.. they just look tacky IMO. I chose graphite/gunmetal.

I still think the blue speedminded did in the photoshop looked sweet. I've never seen that before either.

eh, I disagree. Gold all the way. It looks hot.

or go crazy JDM and paint them Red


but white is a bad choice for wheels. They get dirty real fast, and it doesn't flow that nice on the eyes.

I would go with one of the first two colors.

The gold looks too much like the generic suby rallycar/STI look with the blue/gold wheels.

But it's a Mitsu, not a Subaru so I wouldn't do gold.

I vote for gunmetal on a blue car.
