what color to go with

CarlinoSalazar · 08-27-2008, 10:48 PM

hey guys,

I just recently purchased a set of 08 si rims from a fellow member of the forum and i really don't know what to do with them (i dont want to keep them stock..boring). So I was think about painting them a yellow or orange..... but after seeing this picture i was leaning more toward green. what do you guys think?

i just wanted to get peoples opinion on what color i should paint my rims.

The car its going to be going on is a silver ex that is slammed on Sportlines:

Please feel free to post your painted rims so that i can get an idea of what i can go with. thanks.

so far this is what i have...what do you guys think?

You got Si wheels but you have rsx-s wheels. lol.....

***Nhbfa5*** · 08-27-2008, 10:52 PM

Orange or green. If done right they both look sick

CarlinoSalazar · 08-27-2008, 11:16 PM

how about pink??

projectprelude · 08-27-2008, 11:20 PM

keep the rsx wheels and go green with those itd look alot better IMO

Chance · 08-27-2008, 11:24 PM

Keep the rsx wheels the way they are? I think it looks perfect.

CarlinoSalazar · 08-27-2008, 11:37 PM

IM NOT PAINTING THE RSX RIMS........IM PAINTING SI's RIMS

asm 06sedan · 08-27-2008, 11:48 PM

I know, i really took your opinion into consideration.

KameraBoy · 08-28-2008, 02:48 AM

purple or red > green.

***xheartcore_boyx*** · 08-28-2008, 03:55 AM

Candy pink.

CarlinoSalazar · 08-28-2008, 08:17 AM

I've been using Duplicolor paint for all the rims that i have painted, but im wondering if i can use any kind of paint since im using a clearcoat. The reason that im asking is because all the other rims that i have painted have always been simple colors....... but obviously green, pink, and purple are not usual colors for rims

you will get flamed with green rims as well, if thats a concern..

***xheartcore_boyx*** · 08-28-2008, 08:46 AM

your current wheels painted black..and maybe a red lip..will be unique and look damn good..

***ryryninja*** · 08-28-2008, 08:56 AM

Don't T/A the rsx-s wheels please

I think green would look good.

***FLIGL2003*** · 08-28-2008, 09:48 AM

GREEN doooo the GREEN! hehe

***xheartcore_boyx*** · 08-28-2008, 10:09 AM

All these people above me will make fun of you after you are done with the wheels...

I guarantee that.
