    Hey guys.. looking into some input... I saw the members car who painted his wheels gold and i love them.. but would they look good on Rally Red?


    What are everyones suggestions for wheels on this bad boy.. be it aftermarket, color, or powdercoating/anodizing stock rims ?

    The dealership down here sells the rally red with aftermarket rims (gold color). And they look ok. But IMO, gold and the red reminds me of a christmas car. lol. that's just my opinion.

    *EDIT:

    You can't go wrong with gun-metal

    I agree, gun-metal grey is pretty nice looking.

    But, then again, the stock rims look pretty nice too.. they have a nice contrast with the red, letting them stand out without being overly shiney (I dont like crome, lol)

    Maybe a polished alum rim with red or black highlights would look nice too.

    I think a gunmetal finish with red pinstripe around the dish would look really sick on a Rally Red.

    ya i like that car.. but i just want more "wheel" i seriosuly like the wheels on the GTS stock... thinking of just powder coating.. i dunno though.. i don't want it to be too much or too much "bling" because then people might mistake me for a honda.. that wouldn't be good lol

    well you know, if you like the stock wheels on the GTS, you can always just save money and buy some duplicolor spray paint and just color 'em yourself.

    There are TONS of threads all over forums with steps of how to do it... i've read them a few times and it seems simple.. just like painting anything else kinda... primer few coats etc. ask someone else for exact procedures though cause im not 100% sure lol. seems like an easy and cheap task though.
