finally got around to having the nx rims put on. took a lot of wheel and tire swapping, but it came through alright. now i need to powdercoat them because they're all scratched up from a previous wreck. what color shall i choose?

Pic is kinda dark but I say go with black!! :D :cool:
People keep asking me where I got mine Powder coated but I just used good ol' Ceramic engine paint.
$3.99 vs "too much dinero".

see i'd do that, but i don't want to deal with peeling and flaking down the road via my probably crappy job i'd do on the wheels. ;)

is there an exact color for gunmetal? i mean, i've seen way too many variations of it. it's just a dark grey, correct? i may have the rims powdercoated to match the grey bottum on my car.

White on White looks cool! I know a guy who has a white Classic with white B14 wheels and it looks tight!!!

i agree, except that white wheels are a major pain in the rear to keep clean. they LOVE brake dust to show up, and when i drive through stop and go traffic every day, i'd have to clean them every day.
maybe i'll go with black for that very reason. ;)
