Thing is, i've had the standard, i'd like a color that'll match and pop as well. Usually bright colored cars contrast with darker wheels, and more calm colored cars go with bright wheels. I'm just sick of having the standard mill of colors when it comes to wheels on a RR. I've had black/gunmetal/bronze/silver.

ps. i agree green/teal may be xmas year long :P. Any other input?

hmm, here ya go. if you wanna check out colors available theres no better plave than house of color. these are painted shapes to show the final color. you can check all the different types from sealers to striping colors. good luck! p.s. if your realy interested you might want to find a HOK dealer or someone who is an experienced powdercoater. some colors may look great when you picture it in your head but actually on the car might be a different story.

I'd do mine in polished if it wasn't such a pita to keep up with.

To the OP: Are you just painting them or getting them powder coated?
