what's up with colored wheels?

[Doppelgänger]

Shit, I painted some wheels I had on my Miata gold back in 01 when there weren't that many people running around with gold (and by gold, I mean like the STi gold...not ghetto gold). Then I did the red GT3s on my car (which was pearl white) in early 03 before that got all popular.

It's all about makign the car look "right". Normally I don't care for the black/polished lip, but I have a set that looks "right" with the car...but I constantly see shit on thoer cars that looks like ass.

As long as the wheel (& tire) has the "right" fitment then sometimes the style and color doesn't matter...as long as it doesn't clash with the scheme of the car anyways. Your black/polished lips wheels fit perfect on the Miata!

I've been painting wheels black since '94 lol! Not just on go-karts or the spokes black on bicycles either lol! I was around 14 or 15 when I painted the white wheels on our '69 Chevy dually black. Also painted one un-prepped stock wheel on my Z32 300zx graphite in '99 or 00 just to see how it would look then wiped it all off because I just wanted to get different wheels instead lol! I wanted O.Z. Mito Modulars with a graphite center and polished lip on my dark blue z32 so bad...yeah that never happened lol!
