So i picked up a Cobalt about a month ago because i wrote off my Cavalier. Well it was still the dead of winter so the winter rims had to go on. I noticed when i pulled off my wheels that the paint was actually bubbling. So i decided to get them powdercoated. The face is gloss black and the inserts are hot candy blue. The pics do no justice for the blue. It looks sooo good when the light hits it. I want to paint my calipers but dont know what color. Any suggestions? Anything else that needs to be done? I'm open for comments. Soon to come are projector headlights with hid's, led taillights and an OTTP stage 2 is on it's way. What do you guys think?

Looks nice man

I like the rims, but not on that car. Too much blue. If the car were black and you had those rims and painted the mirrors blue, that would look sweet

Just didn't want to go solid black like everyone else does. So far they have seemed to draw a lot of attention haha

I think it looks great...Would like to see a rolling shot of the car so I can see how the wheels look then.

I don't know what to recommend for the calipers, maybe just black?

Thanks guys. I had to pick the color off the internet because my buddy didn't have the blue i wanted so i'm pretty happy how close it matches. 007Clobaltls i was thinking the same thing haha. I'll take a rolling pic this week as soon as the rain stops. I was thinking black calipers too.

Yup. Do the calipers black so they blend into the background. The blue on the wheels is enough color.

reminds me of the 90's and Barretta Z26's. No offense.

Lol well an SS/SC wheel is damn close to a Barretta Z26 wheel. My neighbor has one haha. But i've never seen a two tone barretta rim?

Well not two-tone, but the rim color matching the color of the car is 90's - especially with GM (think camaro rs wheels and baretta z26).

The paint job does look good though.

I give you props on doing it right instead of rattle canning it.

Ahhh get what you mean. Well the blue is actually like a chrome blue. The pics don't do the color much justice. But thanks on the props haha
