Default New Rim Colors

Time for new rubber for my 2000 Black on black beauty. I also picked up some new rims that I am having powder coated and looking for color ideas.

Im thinking about a gloss black cherry red or gloss bronze. Any pics of rims in these colors would be great or any other colors you suggest. Thanks

Don't have pics, but I would go with the bronze if I were you.

I'd take bronze all day over a red wheel

Bronze or gold would look very good on a black car.

Personally I find bronze a little too dark for a wheel, I lean towards the race gold color. Granted wheel style plays a factor as well. Race gold just reminds me of 60’s race cars and who doesn’t like those?
