Anthracite or Copper?
Was looking to buy some rims and came across a nice set from Enkei and want to get everyones opinion on what color I should get?? Now my original choice was the Anthracite (Darkish Grey Color) which are very nice but then I saw the Copper colored ones and thought those werent too bad.... My cars Black Sand Pearl if that helps, I just dont want to make it look like im trying to rip off the WRX look
Personally, I really don't like colored rims at all, even black look cheap unless they're polished lip, and close up, even from afar they look like cheap wannabe rims (although black rims with a polished lip look good on black cars...)
and I think the whole brown/copper/gold rim thing is a fad, or hope it is, that will go away very quickly. They look like rusted rims when the car's in motion and it matches NOTHING on any car I've seen it on.
Anthracite is the color on my brother-in-law's Acura TL and it looks a tad, tad lighter color as Flint Mica without the paint particles in it, and I think it looks really good. I think it would look a little out of place on a black car though.... Would fit a Flint Mica car perfectly
My personal opinion on rims would be a very nice polished rim, or on a black car a black rim with a polished lip (although played out) or very, VERY conservative chrome rims, not "hubcaps connected to tires"
MMMmmmm yummy... Anthracite Supra... (sorry for the size)
