i'm getting elantra wheels (same as the 2nd gen tibby) from my friend for a great deal...

anyways...what color should i paint them/powder coat them (still trying to decide which one i wanna do)

i was thinking either a Gloss Black...Semi Gloss Black....Satin Black...or a Dark Bronze color...

keep in mind my car is the dark "savannah green" color.

Well, I've ordered my bronze rims, and am waiting for them to arrive VERY soon.

This is what bronze and green looks like:



Not the greatest Chop, but it goes VERY well together.
BE ORIGINAL!!

yeah i mean i think bronze and green will go good together...but then i figure if i get my window's tinted then i'll have too many colors on the outside... so i'm thinking either a gloss black or semi gloss would be best...but bronze is definately still an option


and no...no gunmetall sorry.

EDIT: i'm getting them for 200 with good tires from Beach_03 ...i think that's his name on the Elantra XD board...

he lives right by me and i told him when he gets rims to hook me up...well he got rims and he's hookin me up.

They are not totally black (because of the lighting in the pic).
if I went totally black, you would'nt see them because of the lack of light on that section of the car, ... but there ya go man.

**Even put in some "lens flare" , hehe laugh.gif
