I want to change the color of my wheels...
 
I think gold would look insanely beautiful but i do like me a dark set of gunmetal also. Heres some photoshops i worked up using a photo of another VR like mine:

Nobody is stopping you. Powdercoat or spraypaint. Do it.

the gold looks like the JDM mazdaspeed wheels.

black always looks good too.

either way you go I give you a +1

takata green FTW lol jk.....but would be different and christmas-e

I think it would look better with different wheels are tires. To me that looks like its on wagon wheels, with the large spoke wheels and skinny tires. I think it needs a set of 6UL's and 50 tires.

205/50 on the bronze 6ULs would be sweet (except lowered as well, lol 4x4):

They definitely look better on some cars and worse on others.

leatherface24 03-23-2009 09:24 AM

i agree. i just dont think they look that good with the NB's. NA's can rock em hardcore though IMO. I think Im going to do the gold wheels

Nothing will look good until you loose the 4x4 ride height.

try it again darker, like bronze

gompers 03-23-2009 10:03 AM

it would look 10x better if you just get some more tire on that thing/lower it a tad more.

Once you do that, then look at the color ;p

SmartDrug 03-23-2009 10:28 AM

The black wheels are the hotness on that car. Not digging the new tails though.

Buddy Bodean 03-23-2009 10:30 AM

Yep, black. And I agree, not feeling the tails either. Maybe is they were the same color as the car...

leatherface24 03-23-2009 10:37 AM

updated the first post

disturbedfan121 03-23-2009 10:42 AM

all 3 look good....could you do like a lime green almost, just slighty darker? for shits and giggles?

Machismo 03-23-2009 10:45 AM

I'm liking the bronze....but I am biased. He He....
Looks classy.
Black would also be choice color, and help with the size of those rims.
Darker always seems to look smaller (but you know this) ;)

leatherface24 03-23-2009 10:58 AM

i tried a slightly lighter bronze which i think looks loads better

leatherface24 03-23-2009 11:14 AM
