I would keep it stock If I had a blue car, but IF you really wanna paint them, I would say black.

^ agree..black would be my choice!

***iluvmycsx*** · 07-08-2007, 10:08 PM

black

I personally think black is the best colour to go with, especially if you were sticking to the stock wheels. I think that golden/yellow colour on Brembos is very nice as well, but you need a really aggressive setup to support that colour:
