Powder coating: what color would you choose for your wheels?

[iclicku]

So I'm strongly considering powder coating my 19" wheels. Want to know what you guys think would work well for your respective colors.

For me I would I think gun metal, gloss black, or bronze would work well with micro blue.

Any other recommendations?

@Kia Stinger
Would you be able to take a stock photo and color the wheels like I suggested?

Gun Metal would my preference , for all colors ..............

I think a dark color will not be beneficial. The wheel gets lost with all that darkness around it (tire, fender well, etc). In my opinion the wheel needs to pop, buut in a decent, subtle and elegant way.

You need to paint it a color that will contrast properly with the color of your chasis. Someone with PS abilities will come in very handy to make some renderings of possible colors.
If I were to choose I would go with bronze, but not a dark shade.

Can you give me a good picture of your Stinger from the side? I'll see what I can do...

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

With my limited skills I might have a fair representation of what gunmetal would look like. Black and Bronze, I'm just not experienced enough to make that happen. I did try...

Awesome Sal. Thanks a bunch. That's looking pretty good! Hard to make a decision. I like how the darker colors allow the brakes to pop.

Black would probably look good too - but I'm partial to gunmetal. I think bronze would look better on a car that had a little gold on it - but I may be old fashioned like that...

I went with gloss black yesterday. Gotta put the center caps back on but after I get them painted black

Hey Devang,

Are you planning on dropping your Stinger at any point?

BTW, I’m the guy that quizzed you about your Stinger in the Fullerton Walmart parking lot a couple months ago. I took your advice and joined the forum. Thanks again for entertaining all my questions that day.

Hey man what’s up??? I don’t plan on doing anything else but window tint and wrap the top black. Have you decided on buying one yet?

Definitely going to be buying one, but I’ll be waiting until tax time next year unfortunately. Just making a list of what I want to do at this point. The wait is killing me. Eibach drop, clear bra, and tint are on the must list so far. I was also thinking about the roof wrap too so I’ll be watching out for pix of that when you have it done. I really think you should look into dropping yours with Eibach springs. Just that extra inch makes it look so good, just right.

Every time I see your Stinger on this forum I always end up spending a bit of time looking at it. Good job, I have to 3M/Under Coat/tint/nano coat first before I get to some accessories(did get the Stinger badge for the rear).
