got one side polished
Sunday, April 04, 2010 12:18 PM
finally got the passenger side of the car polished! thinking about painting the other two on the driver side white just to see how it looks. i havent painted these wheels white yet, and a few ppl have said they'd think they would look good white. so tuesday im going to paint the two driver side wheels white and i'll upload some pictures of them. for now this is the driver side polished! the last picture is edited on photobucket.

I say no for the white wheels... it will totally kill the contrast you have on your car now...

If anything I'd go with black with polished lip, but I like how the polished looks, simple and clean.

I think it would look killer with white spokes and a polished lip. The car looks friggen awesome the way it is now but I don't think white spokes would hurt the look of it at all!

I would spray the spokes with the Gunmetal Metalcast so the spokes look like a black chrome....

Correction on my thoughts...i agree with this more...the spokes white would not be so bad...but black with a polished lip would be sexy!

My wheels are black with a polished lip, and even I think they are played out :p

Stick with the polished look. It really compliments your car.

I think that's just a hott wheel and has looked good every color they've been. That being said I love the polished! But I do love white on white and am excited to see that!

Need a Tissue? time to stick to the subject from now on...
my order of preference:
1. keep them polished
2. Gunmetal with a lip
3. Gunmetal
4. Black with a lip
5. White with a lip
6. White

they would all look pretty sick though so just do whatever color you had lurking in your head bro!

I'd say polished, or gunmetal with a lip. But sexy as is nonetheless

thanks for the input guys. i might not have specified on how i was going to apply the white. yes im going to leave the polished lip and just paint the spokes white. i have already had them gunmetal and black is close enough to gunmetal so im not going back with anything dark! i like something bright that pops and stands out! i really want like a bright yellowish/gold but its hard to find the specific color i want. not sure yet but i might paint the two driver side wheels white with polish lip this week. if i do i'll add pictures and see what you guys think! i kinda like the idea of black spokes white lip, maybe i'll test it out and see how it like it!

and i have already had white on white. that was hot 8 years ago. but now its just normal to see it! yes i know my car is not a honda but every since i went to import alliance i've loved the polished look!

I love them polished. The thing is, they are a very very good looking design IMO, so the color isn't the BIGGEST factor. Another idea I had pop into my head while reading through the replies is this: What about doing the insides of the spokes whatever color, keeping the lip and spoke faces polished up nicely and doing a good clear coat over the whole wheel? Want to compliment the white? do the inside of the spokes white. Want to compliment the black accents and add contrast? Do the insides black. But whatever you do, I say the lip and face of the wheels look awesome polished.


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

I was thinking this same thing. I think polished spoke faces and lip would look killer on that car with the inside accented with white.
