Default Varrsteon ES1...color options...HELP choose.

Im looking at these rims, 20x11 rear and 19x9.5 front. I dont like either of the color choices so Im going to be taking them to a shop to get painted.
I swiped the picture from darksideG35 since the car color is the same and the rims will be too. Im not to concerned about the lip kit and headlight mods making a difference in look.
Already ordered my springs that will get me a little lower then his is sitting...I hope.

Im leaning towards bronze or gold but theres something about other colors off the yellow/orange pallet that are a little appealing. Im not really interested in going black since that seems to be the most common and its really not my taste.

Let me know what you guys think

yes sir ...been a long time man. Been with my GF 3 years and I told her Id get back seats for a little more convenience and to make the car a little more useful. Took me 8 weeks to find the right car, besides the color, which I can get over, it was the perfect price.

Plus it keeps me from wanting to put a Z where my old one was. I can stay with suspension, rims, and some bolt ons and be happy.

thanks man ...Im going to scour the private sale section of many forums before I buy but yeah the pic Vex posted is nice.

Iv always loved a high contrast form body color though and I definitely wont be putting that much a drop on my car. Chattanooga rides are complete ***...and Im comparing to Orlando roads. Its like theres a curb to enter any strip mall, gas station...anything.

I have issues with the machined lips as well, I love polished so that may also change my mind.

Material they are made from aside, they are just such a good price for 19x9.5 and 19x11s, especially with a step lip...I may actually go 20s in the rear, from all the pics Iv seen 19s seem like 18s would on the Z.

Then again I may look for a set of used gold sf challenges or work TS1's
