Default Painting Rims

This car



These Rims





If you can have the black rims on the S.O. and then have matching Orange rims on the S.O. aswell... So I can see whether I want to paint my stock rims orange or black... Thank you in advance.

That paint scheme is pretty tacky IMO. But, suit yourself



and in black:

I just wanted to see how the stocks would look painted in my color and how the blacks would fit with the S.O... I don't think the orange looks half bad though if it matched more the color of the car... Thanks for the p.s. now I have an idea what to go with if I decide to keep my stocks... I just want something different, since the color of the car isn't enough lol

Honestly, the stock wheels look the best not painted.

If I were you I would just save up for some aftermarket ones that you really like rather than spend money painting the stockers, which would kill their resale value if you did end up getting another set.

That is true... I just saw Brain's idea and I liked it so I wanted to see how it looked... I've also seen another S.O. around south florida with orange rims with no chrome on it also looked nice... I just want to find some nice 5 spoke rims that would fit the Z nice.

I hear ya. You're down in miami- I know VQ Motoring and USRimSupply are based out of Miami, they may be able to help you find some affordable wheels.

Maybe if the silver parts of it were anodized deep crystal red it would look better.
