What should I do with these.....

Just picked up another set of SS/TC rims.

I'm planning on powder-coating them, but cannot decide on the color.
Currently my are rims plasti-dipped and they look sweet in flat black.

What do you guys think?

hmmmmm
that may not be a bad idea.
it'd be kind of hard to find rims that are lighter than tc's though.

i'll be selling the pair that are on the car now after the new pair are powdercoated.

gun metal to match the brembos!

i wish i could find a set of SS/TC wheels.

i could have done any color but i decided to go black! which it does look good and goes well with the color of our cars. i may do mine a bronze,gold or gun metal. still havent decided yet. such a tough decision lol
