PowderCoated stock 16" Rims

[babbster]

I have a 2001 with the stock 16's. The car is navy blue with 5% tint and tinted tails and black mclaren grill with black sidemarkers. My uncle owns a powdercoating business and I thought powedercoated black stock 16's may look nice, kinda like a trooper car? Any opinions?

probably look good, but not stylish. Just get some black 18's of ebay for like 400$

16" wheels are small enough. The black would make them look like 13s.

I wasnt going to be doing it necessarily for looks and being stylish just thought it would be different, I would much rather have some clean 19's or 20's but this would be free practically.

I would do it in another color like Hyper black or something.

Black is played out.

color match the dark blue and do a black lip.

+1 on the two tone. Pektel - I like where your heads at

 

[JWerner2]

I have always liked the gold look like on the Subaru's but in my opinion a blue wheel would look more like it belongs on a new hot wheel or one of those Honda's with the JDM elitist decal on the fender.

 

[pektel]

Think so? I think it would look hot. Yeah an electric blue would look like you described jwerner, but the navy blue clear coated, black lip, finish matched... that's sexy.

 

[JWerner2]

- the decal and yeah its not a blue car but you can see my point.

To each his own, Im sure people will say the gold is not that nice but I love the look of gold on white or silver cars.

 

[pektel]

well, his car is navy blue though. I think it makes a different statement when color matching the body color on the wheels, then just throwing blue wheels on a white car. Don't you think?

 

[JWerner2]

You are correct. Still I just cant see having blue wheels regardless of the color of the car.

Like I said to each his own. Amusing, we rarely disagree

 

[pektel]

yeah, I guess we'll just agree to disagree on this one

i am not gonna lie, my fav lincoln is the 1961 Lincoln Continental, someday i want to get a four door drop like JKF's ss-100-x and i want it sky blue with matching blue and crome wheels. HOT!

What about black with a silver lip to set it apart from the tire?
