Wheel Choice for shortbus
Looking at a different set of wheels eh? Trunk looks nice by the way. I think those centerline wheels would look awsome black or gunmetal. Funny thing is that I was looking into centerline wheels today too.
I THINK. if u have a carbon fiber trunk. u need to go with black wheels. now im a big fan of silver with polished lip. but i think u have a sleeper looking kind of car going. so i say go black
I'm so torn between what to do, now that i have the cf trunk, it would complete the set-up to paint my wheels black, but also i do like the centerline wheels, only if they came in black or gunmetal, ahh what to do!
Tape off and paint your rims like in that picture above. I am really interested in what that would look like. Keep the sides of the spokes and in the dishs gunmetal, and paint the face of the rim a gloss black. That would probably look awsome, but you never know till someone tries it.
I would powdercoat the centerlines, but thats a bit much for my wheel budget, you can get the centerlines for 716$ shipped, and powder coating by a shop is about 300 for all four, iam not trying to spend over 725 or so for wheels.

LOL yes, merc, your choice takes the cake, i just ordered my cf hood, so the black/yellow theme will be completed too, iam thinking of taking the painting of the wheels into my own hands.
Hey shortbus, I was just looking on Tire Rack tonight and I noticed they got some more wheels in the dreaded 5-110. I dont know if you have a specific brand in mind but I see they have ASA-JH8's on there. I have a yellow SS S/C myself and I have been trying to find a decent black wheel. You can check them out though...just tryin to help...hey it's an option.
