So i got a little tired of the gun metal graphite colored rims so i went for something a little different. I was a little tired something a little different. what u guys think?

Before:




After:

 

Personally not feeling it... but if you're happy with them, go for it. Just not my shade of purple.

 

no go here either, but if you like it, who gives a sh*& what anyone else thinks. the setup looks good tho. are u lowered on H-techs or s-techs? what size tire are you running?

 

im running nitto gen 215/45 on S-tech tiens

 

i like the shade, but i dont see the shine...

looks almost flat purple, but i like it overall!

 

I think they'd look better on a BSP or a SW, but if you like it then go for it.

 

Nay, but to each their own. Enjoy.

 

Love it. Needs more shiny though.

Edit-

Plans for the center caps?

 

it works. there is a nice color contrast between the silver and purple.

 

I did the same thing but more purpleish awhile back.. What type of paint did u use?? Testors? you should clearcoat it like everyone else says.. Look good..

 

nay

 

X2

 

its different i give you that. but nay for me. but again, its what you think not what we think.

 

im not sure what to do bout the center caps yet cause they keep freaken breaking off. For now im probably just go without them. I herd that the dealer charges like $45 each center cap so idk yet. As for the clear coat ill probably just put on one or two more coats to get a little more shine and better protection.

 

lower it another 1.5 to 2 inches and you might pull them off.

 

crazy rim colors are cool but im not feeling the purple on silver

 

i like always nice to see crazy colored stock rims, although could use a more popping shade

 

yeah i think it'd look better on a BSP
i think the purple would look good on CSM if it was lighter though

 

How hard is it really to DIY paint these rims. I've been quoted at $300 to get them powdercoated but I'd much rather paint them on my own

 

It just seems like the sanding would really be a pain in the A**
