Which color to paint my wheels?

[nikolaus.conrad]

I'm thinking about doing Huffer's $8 paint job on my stock Outback wheels, but I'm having difficulty figuring out which color would look the best on my wagon. My Outback is white with gray trim, I'm deciding between gold/bronze and metallic black/dark gray. Opinions and comments are very much appreciated =] Thank you

Its a Subaru. Go gold. The darker gray (if sorta color matched to the bottom of the car) wouldn't be bad.

I was thinking gold but I wasn't sure because of the gray trim. Maybe a photoshop job will help a bit :smt023

This is my 2AM photoshop job, I missed a couple of spots but it should do the trick. Although, I'd like my wheels a bit darker than this.

I think that bronze or black would be your best bet.

I painted one wheel bronze/gold and I didn't like it :( I'll post a picture later tonight to show you.

This is what my wheels looked like with the color I chose. I'm not a fan of it in this light, but in bright sun they turned gold.

Anthracite or gunmetal would work well. Or just refurb the silver.

Gold FTW - definitely a Subaru thing.

If it was Gold-gold I would do it, and I imagine this colour looks great on just a plain white car but I didn't like it on mine, I think the gray trim clashes with it. So I got silver spray paint and painted them silver again. It looks fantastic! Like brand new wheels!
