Default What You Guys Think?



^^ im looking to have my wheels refinished for the winter ^^

i have a couple of choices of [/B]powdercoat[B] for the center piece. i plan on leaving the actual outer rim to be a shiny chrome silver finish

#1:
that is painted gold, not powdercoat, and polished/chromed lip

#2:
that is "black chrome", its black but depending on how light hits it it changes from black to chromish black

#3:
that is "silver chrome"

#4:
that is "gold chrome". its a bit dark for my taste, still waiting for a response if it can come in a lighter color


as of right now, im leaning towards a complete "silver chrome" finish for the entire wheel, OR go "silver chrome" lip with "gold chrome" face. if i dont go with the gold chrome, ill go gold paint for the center piece




so what do you guys think?

Chrome wheels on a sports car are the sole property of guys with combovers that want to "mod" their Corvettes.

Honestly I would go with something black or a dark color. I think that would look best
with yellow IMO.

Yeah chrome looks horrible imo. Only like chrome sometimes on old school muscle cars.
Go with a dark wheel as someone else suggested. Black or gun metal I think.
