oh man...am i the only guy who pretty much HATES black rims? I have only seen a few cars with black rims that actually look good. Most of the times it just looks like they lost their hupcaps and looks stupid. I am a big fan of polised rims and gunmetal. And yes, gunmetal on yellow is awesome!

i like the first ones with the second ones color.... Theres alot of nice color combinations but theres alot of bad ones too. Like silver with white wheels!? and some bright ass orange with orange wheels i really think people shouldnt match the color of their wheels with the color of their car unless its like black with gunmetal so yea..... im shutting up:o

My friend Matt stopped buy to show me his car last week because he just had his kit put on. He has a silver Prelude. And he bought himself some new gunmetal rims. I hated gunmetal until I saw his car. So hot w/those rims and that color. I love white rims too. My favorite I think would be the SI blue w/white rims.

Heh, yeah you did. I didn't even see that. I love that color. The color of my room is pretty damn close to that. I was so serious about wanting to paint my Accord that but I knew that I would not be keeping it for a long time so I didn't. It would have been cool but in the long run it would would have just been a huge waste of money.

people hate everything until they find that one love...

for me, it was a blue 2002 type-r(RSX) with gunmetal wheels. i saw it at a japanese grocery store in seattle(owajimaya).

then at the same parking lot, i saw a white WRX with black wheels/polished lip.

THAT'S when it hit me...and that was a 3 weeks ago.

I used to love chrome back in the day. And now I really don't like seeing it on anything else but luxury vehicles.
