Default What color rims for Onyx Blue xB

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.

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.

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.

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.

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:

or this color is even better:

hhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

I think the bronze wheels with the blue would look really sharp.

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.

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.

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.

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.
