Imo stick with silver. Black on black is way overdone, and some contrast always looks better imo

I've been diggin' on that tealish blue color I've been seeing around lately. Although the silver is classic.

I have some RPF1's and always wanted to do something crazy to em...But then always change my mind and keep em classic silver haha...One of these days...Honestly it's a great looking rim already, I'm sure any color you choose will look good. Show some pics when you figure it out!

please dont powdercoat them as it makes your wheels weaker. if you goto a good paint shop and tell them to paint them and add 6 coats of clear. that will be plenty durable and not make the wheel any weaker because of the heat process used to powdercoat.

im planning on getting these wheels and painting them a slightly darker silver. they dont look good in black imo.

If they powdercoat them like aluminum that is not true.

Black on silver is dope. That's why I'm running that color scheme

But if you want to change it up, you should go with a lighter color that will let all the spokes and the step lip stand out. I'd say blue...but you have to remember that it might clash with the stock red brembos.
