Which wheel color?

[MR.6690]

Having a tough time deciding which color to paint my wheels. I was thinking black, white or gold but I am open to suggestion. They're all primed and ready to go.


Here is one with just a little bit of white paint (got curious), and the base primer coat.

i dont like how they look in black.. it usually does not come out pretty looking. Id say silver or gold.

[decke48]

i would go with white or silver

Gold! :eek:

[MR.6690]

does the Dupli-Color Gold rattle can come out lookin pretty good? I'm leaning towards gold but I'm really interested to see what white would look like.

Nice boots. I do my painting in jandals. :lol:

I'm thinking gold would be the best since the lower section of the car is already gold. Not sure if white would work with it.....

Looks like we have the same color scheme Subaru so I'm very curious on your results.

The lower cladding isn't really gold though. It's more of a slate color.

The lower cladding isn't really gold though. It's more of a slate color. Agreed, almost a champagne color. I think white wouldn't look right with that two-tone paint on those Outbacks, but the gold may still go okay with the cladding since they are similar.

Gunmetal may also be a close match to the two tone.

[shizznats]

definitely soemthing dark.. so black or gunmetal gets my vote.

and you should also get a new front tire.. that ones not lookin so good.

I picked up a can of silver enamal.



we'll see how it turns out

Here is what the finished wheels in silver would look like:

The sun makes them look a little lighter in spots than they actually are.


I really wanted to try gold but I couldn't find any decent paint. The only gold I did find was right next to the "chrome" paint and I figured that would look horrendous.

Is your car black or blue?

[MR.6690]

blue. I wish it was black sooooo bad. Those all black GTs (I think) are beautiful.

I think the white and silver look tits on your color combination. But I think white wheels are underrated and I am a bit partial. Having said that, I have to clean my wheels atleast every 3 days to keep them pearly white. They gather brake dust pretty quick. But at the end of the day the look is subtle and unique enough that I love it.

Looking at your top pic, the white I think goes with your blue and whatever the martha stewarts up there decided the color was, quite well. Check out my car (in my sig) to get an idea of a dark car with white wheels.
