just paint the inside black, leave the lip
Fail Wagon 12-09-2006 12:22 PM

the whole lip and just paint the spokes? or leave the ~1" vertical lip

If you can find a lighter color gray or silver that would look great. Maybe even white. If you're going to whiteout the corners, with a white car, the lighter look will be real clean. Black wheels are nice, but I feel they are just a trend right now. You may want to consider clearing out the front bumper blinkers, maybe even painting the black strip white. A white on silver car is hot.

I would say black, but I think you would need a lip with flat black. Graphite would also look pretty good.

+1 for black with silver/polished lip to bring out the rim design. the lip will also make the wheels look larger

IMHO, 100% black wheels look boring... and in dark lighting, cars with black wheels look like they floating without wheels. i suppose they are ideal if u want the stealth look and easy maintenance

+2 for black with silver/polished lip.

black wheels look good on white cars, with a polished lip even better. But i voted for gold.

You know what wold be cool? STI pink :banana:

I would definetley go with the '98 RS gold, its a little darker than the gold they put on the STI's now. But it looks better on the wheels that you have on your car. Although, I really think that painting your wheels yourself is a generally bad idea (that is, if you are spray painting). If you really want to get a high quality job and you have the money to spend, then powdercoat your wheels. If you paint them yourself, then you risk missing spots and not doing a thorough job, and the paint will chip.

these are the '98 RS wheels:

I agree there, I say sell the wheels and get some already painted ones.

Kind of hard to vote when I don't see the car or wheel. Were there pics once upon a time?
