View Full Version : What color rims for Onyx Blue xB
showpaojoe 08-28-2003, 09:08 PM I haven't been to any of those scion gatherings and have yet to see a scion with rims. What color would complement the dark blue? I was think either silver with polished lip, chrome, or even hyper black with polished lip. What do you guys recommend.
randode 08-28-2003, 09:48 PM chrome!
eric_m 08-28-2003, 10:02 PM chrome or polished aluminum would look awesome with blue. black would be ok, but kind of different. i like the AMG mercedes dark blue with the black and blue wheels. looks really nice.
its_ikon 08-28-2003, 10:07 PM i am not a big fan of chrome so it depends on what you want your car to look like. i would go with a silver or gunmetal.
eric_m 08-28-2003, 10:11 PM just go with silver. they look good with any color.
see?

randode 08-28-2003, 10:42 PM erics sarcasm is really hard to spot. is he joking, or just being a dik?
:)
eric_m 08-28-2003, 10:54 PM nah. i like that corolla. sam did a great job on it. it's super clean. i'm never intentionally mean to anyone. hopefully sam will understand that. if he put like 15" wide tires on the back it would look so awesome. i think it's possible, too. look how wide those fenders are. so awesome.
ScionJohn 08-28-2003, 11:08 PM Go with silver with polished lip! Just like Work Wheels from Japan! Good color choice!
Djuan 08-28-2003, 11:34 PM Is there a theme your going for ??? And dont forget white, looks nice too...

showpaojoe 08-29-2003, 11:29 PM Those wheels look good. I just wanna find some wheels that will make mine really stand out. But I don't want it to look like all weird like some cars do when they have chrome wheels but they look like you can easily kick thru the cheap looking centers. You know what I mean, some chrome wheels are just too flashy and end upo looking ____ty on any car. But then I like the black on polished lip look but am only concerned with if it is too clashing. I had blue neons and it looked cheap so I put on white ones, I just want everything to look harmonious with the dark blue xB.
i think you should rock something unique...
like the new K-car Sparco NS-III in the beautiful blue/pol lip!

here's what they look like in a full picture in gold w/ pol lip:

actually.....
blue cars w/ gold/bronze wheels absolutely ROCK!
screw chrome!
think outside your box!
or you could rock these beauties:

hhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!
kikimaja 08-29-2003, 11:49 PM I think the bronze wheels with the blue would look really sharp.
Meejay 08-30-2003, 12:05 AM I think the blue onyx xB would look HOT with gold spoke 17" wheels with stock offset and width. Just make sure that everything is blacked out. No chrome!
Also, with that combo the gold fingerprint accessory logo would look good.
showpaojoe 08-30-2003, 12:12 AM Nice, what do you mean be everything blacked out? The wheels without polished lip? cuz wouldn't that make the car look too dark, might as well drive around without hubs.
Djuan 08-30-2003, 12:53 AM N600 nice selection I like those ! Especially in bronze on blue, that would be tight, fat tires in a 15" !!!
its_ikon 09-02-2003, 07:52 PM nah. i like that corolla. sam did a great job on it. it's super clean. i'm never intentionally mean to anyone. hopefully sam will understand that. if he put like 15" wide tires on the back it would look so awesome. i think it's possible, too. look how wide those fenders are. so awesome.
it is just too bad that you are taking old pics. those rims are so trashed and messed up that they don't even look right in the pictures anymore. i have some rims picked out that are high end tuner wheels that will fill the gap really good. i just need to finish my interior to get the rims.
showpaojoe 09-02-2003, 09:19 PM How do you put up a picture? When I use the "Img" buttom, it doesn't let me paste a picture so I right click and copy the pics shortcut to insert a hyperlink then "/Img". But when I preview I get one of those little boxes with an x in it.
I just wanna show what wheels I'm looking at for the blue scion and get some of your feedback.

showpaojoe 09-03-2003, 07:38 PM This is what I was looking at
Axis Se7en Mod
http://www.spyeng.com/spy/MOD.jpg
or
Lowenhart BR5
http://mmstn04.sac2.fastsearch.net/40960b2b00000e9200000be500000e5c
What do you think, too much or just right?
showpaojoe 09-03-2003, 07:40 PM Oh ya, thanks Mr Scion. For some reason it didn't work for me without the http:// part.
hatchbox 09-03-2003, 07:43 PM i think for onyx blue, you should get something polished or white rims.
gunmetal, hyperblack rims look better on black, white, thundercloud xB's
Mr_scion 09-03-2003, 08:00 PM i like the lowenharts br5 the axis r nice but there is someone on theis site that has them so be diffrent
showpaojoe 09-03-2003, 08:04 PM Yup, that's the whole point of having a scion xb. Otherwise I'd be driving a civic like my cousin.
debris 10-06-2003, 07:06 PM i have powder coated rims on my blue ride ...looks clean....i like a nice clean look. no bling bling for me...but to those who do more power to you and rock on wit yo bad self.
bB2NER 09-06-2005, 08:49 PM White with a polished lip would look HOT on the BOP.
sexyscionlover 09-06-2005, 08:54 PM wow... prize for MOST DEAD THREAD goes to Jethro_b!
haha. wow. sorry but this is OLD. Joe is no longer on the site. I talked to him last week through AIM. he ended up going with bright orange rims. That wasnt an option back in 03 for him i dont think, but it is now :rofl:
scott
bB2NER 09-06-2005, 09:00 PM It somehow came up so I read it and put in my 2 cents. I had no freakin idea how old it was. WOW your right! I feel dumb now!LOL
QuestionMark 09-10-2005, 07:48 AM Here's my box... thinking about selling the wheels though.

QuestionMark - Very nice my friend, I would keep them if I were you :wink:
I am also dumping these rims though, just want something new.
