what color to go with

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?

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
