[tsoob]

[ihavelift]

baller spec

straight JDM right thurr

[rollaholic]

pink can look sweet so long as the car its on is tough as $&#$%.

but in this case we have a celica

im voting white also

[wishihadaTE27]

White.
Anything fluro is a sing of bad taste.

Stick to the classic colours, white,silver,gunmetal,bronze or black. And on red car best suited would be white, silver and black (maybe gun metal depending on shade and shape).

Haha since when did you become the yard stick for good taste sergei ?

Fluro is just a sign of DIFFERENT taste - just because its not yours doesnt make it bad

That m3 slammed on the green BBS's looks $&#$% dope IMO.

I think the colour is all dependant on the wheel ur putting it on. Im a big fan of matt bronze and it pretty much goes with anything, it gives the car a much more agressive look. White wheels just get way too dirty too quick it might look good but doesnt look good for long, just ask IH8TEC. Could we get a picture of the wheels?

[®usty]

getting the powdercoating done now. will post pics once finished in my progress thread.

this thread has done its job, so can be closed.

[Bling]

Well it is opinion, but for some reason my taste coincides with people who design the cars, You don't see a factory car with flouro wheels, that are not even same gamut as the car. Plus time I have wasted in art school when I was a lot younger set me with some sense what looks "right". But I could argue all day, and still there are people who like these:

or these

And they would be convinced that is pinnacle of good taste, and looks very good.

Some people are just as good as magpies at picking good taste.

Its a creamy yellow. Charcoal is just the standard black paint on the wheels faded / crap condition Am considering going a random colour just for "WTF" responses

Well considering a good percentage of factory cars look f**king boring that does kind of say a lot. Not everyone likes boring. Personalising a car to your own tastes is a good thing (usually ). Be it fluro wheels or anything else helps give a car a certain stance / personality. my 5c

[sergei]

Yes, I agree, it adds personality. Just like painting A/C vents in bright yellow.

[Bling]

Yeah, and some people like that kinda thing, no need to hate on it just because. Just be happy to know they aren't your vents

[sergei]

There is no hate, just ridicule .
Although I must admit that over the years I changed my taste towards more of what you call "boring". Car designers put a lot of time in the design to hopefully make it not age so fast. Many of them failed (of course most of cars are ugly as sin). But some of them got it right. I caught myself on reverting thing to factory looks after spending $$$ on silly stuff (eg lowering springs, coloured light bulbs, etc.). Also replacing coloured vents, chromies, getting rid of gauges and other crap that people put in family cars, to increase the value of a car as part of my (previous) job changed my perspective on mods in general.
When I think of mods, I ask myself following questions:
1) How much it will devalue my car
2) What is the performance gain/($ spent+ $ value lost)
4) Will it make me look like an asshat? (eg loud exhaust)
3) How much is it going to cost to revert it back
