I'd agree that silver looks good.
i think his rims have gold accents? maybe he want to get rid of the gold?
not typically a fan of gold accented wheels, but i have gold rims, completely different style though..
did not think of that just get rid of the gold sweet thanks Rabbit.
Don't paint anything gold. doesn't go with the car. Just get a can of duplicolor spray paint in your car's color. Paint everything with that. Then everything will match and look 1000009000000000X better. I forget what the orange used on the Aveo's was called.Quote:

yes it is. And the Gold clashes too much.
I would say the same, gold is not a good match with orange but since there is just a bit of gold on it I think they are ok... Painting rims is a big deal, first, ur dealing with Aluminum and is hard for paint to stick to it, U can buy wheel paint at Autozone, today can paint is very good quality, having it painted in a shop would be better, having it powder coated would be best as it is the hardest finish, ur other option would be selling those rims and use the money towards another set that is the color u want.
If I ever paint my rims, it's gonna be body color. It looks better than just grabbing a vaguely similar color (like orange and gold for an example) and hoping they don't clash. To me, if the rims are painted and they don't match the car's color, it looks REALLY sloppy. My Monte Carlo is completely stock but came with body color painted aluminum rims.
thats what I'll do paint the gold silver. less work yes I'm lazy. :)
just paint the gold the orange body color.Quote:
