Which look best?

So I photoshopped some wheels on my car real quick and was just wondering the opinion from others.

Not the best job, but I don't care

Eh none of em.

i know the Gray silver on the F Pro won't stand out enough for your car.

SSR GT3 is an ungodly heavy wheel and quite pricey.

The G-games color is very dark, more like dark dark gray.

I definitely believe that out of the pics you have there the GT3 provides the best contrast and will enhance the vehicle.

You seen my car. I tried to do a similar thing with my Blue, but plain silver actually didn't balance out the color of the car.

I think you should go with something that is a bright color of some sort. You were along the right lines with the 57pro RMC finish.

I'm super anti Bling, but the proof was in the pudding. We just happened to try this color on the 8 and were like dayum, it actually looked the best.

I tried Silver wheels, Black wheels, gunmetal wheels, and finally the BBF finish.

Of course this is just all opinion, and of course is subjective to each person's taste.

Laters, Rishie

I just spent a good deal on coilovers because I thought a nice set of coilovers would be ideal before I got wheels. I did another photoshop on my car and I think I found new wheels

those rims are nice but both of those cars have body kits and make the wheels stand out more cuz the car looks more squared... but i think that any rims u get should be white polished or chrome 2 look good with ur paint.. dark colors wouldnt look 2 good.. just my opinion =/

deep dish 5 spokes. good choice. thank god.

Your paint is nice and bright. No need to mix it up with dark. Keep it nice and silver like the stockers and it will look fantastic.

I was bored so I shopped the same wheels onto the car. So far I'm pretty interested in these. I took Rishie's advice saying that the polished look will bring the color of my paint out the most. These are high polished wheels, not really good quality on my photoshop job didn't put any time into it. The wheels came out blurred, probably too much transforms but in the sunlight they are a "bling" finish but are not chromed. I'd get 18x9's and 18x10's with 255/35/18 and 285/30/18

I have the Veilside AndrewV that is for sale. I think they will look great on your car.
They are 18"x9" and 18"x10"



You can look at the link on the bottom for the sale thread!
