Which color centers for my new CCW Classics?!

[RTz]

Polished.

 

Never been a fan of black wheels. They are typically featureless as soon as you take a few steps back... the black 'wheel' looks the same as the black 'holes'.

this one is a no brainer, polished ftw!

Paint the entire lip/barrel red and only the center flat black. A lot like this but red...

i want to change mine to the red ring.

Polished is the only way to go

Black centers all the way, BTW PM sent about old wheels.

something like this... quickie photoshop...

 

[g00kb0i]

try flat red or the paint red, and not anodizing red...

I personally like the black with a chrome lip, I feel it makes the wheels look a little wider, they dont draw away from the rest of the car.

 

With full chrome wheels, I feel that it draws your eyes to the wheels and away from the rest of the car. But with the black center and the chrome lip, it copliments the car, but does not distract from the car itself.

anodized red powdercoat

consider painting the entire wheel red, and then covering the sides of the spoked portions and painting the face black, that way it retains the black colour and looks like a full black wheel. But it will not make look like a regular black wheel with "holes" like steelie, which I can agree with ron tyler on.

 

This way, you get the black colour, with some colourful depth to compliment the colour of the car, with which you've done a fine job on accenting already.

 

and keep the chrome trim rings on the tail light panel. I dont see them looking as good painted black, as someone mentioned. especially if you keep the wheels and the misc emblems and bits on the car chromed.

 

Have you considered a hyper-black chrome? or even a bronze? i Like bronze black and red. looks gangster!

Black centre with polished lip... That's a killer combo!

that last picture looks awesome, heaps better than the thin red line around the bolts.

 

however i'd keep them polished for a few months atleast until you were certain you wanted to go down one of the other paths (of which i'd go black centres red lip if its not a daily driver, purely because it would get to much attention as a daily )

[Careless]

black center, red lip looks too much like a toy car in this case if you blur your eyes. part of the reason why black would look weird is because as ron stated, it looks good from about 10 feet, but also because in the sunlight, the black on the wheels will not match the black on the plastic parts of the car.

[ktm]

Polished for the same reasons Ron mentioned.

Justin im gonna just be honest and tell you i dont like any of your previous selections. I dont know why, they just dont look right to me. I think if you keep a bare polished rim/lip and go with a graphite color for the inside, you cant go wrong.

that graphite center wouldnt match and go with his car at all, at least i dont think so...
