Default i want peoples opinion on this!

i was thinking about removing the center sections of my volk GT-7's out and having them powder coated matte black/semi gloss. i have not seen this before on GT-7'S. also in addition to that i will be installing some zigen open face red anodized lug nuts ontop of that. the fact is i am getting sick of these rims! i want to change it up a bit. a ultra yellow z is hard to find rims for IMO that look good. what would you recommend? sometimes i hate the F"ing color of my z for this reason.

i think they look sick how they are. the center matches with the lip for a nice touch, maybe photochop it and see how you like it???

i love the volk CE28n's ,RE30's or even the beloved TE37's. but those rim's in all matte black on my z IMO would look getto! maybe with a yellow stripe on the lip they would look acceptable! i would just hate to make a expensive mistake. here is a crappy photo chop i did with the wheel's all black. what do you think? looks like **** IMO. DONT MIND THE OTHER STUPID **** I DID ON THE PIC.

I would defiantly do it. The photo chop looks tight. It's 100% better.

Leave as is. It looks great. Very clean. The only think I could see would be POSSIBLY doing just the center section black. The outer rim portion needs the silver for balance.

It's a sweet ride. Appreciate it.

hmmm interesting. tell me how the powder coating goes i've heard that it can be a pita getting the wheels to look right not color but making sure the coating sticks well on the all the corners edges of the face design. Of course i'm not trying to scare you or anything.

Goodluck with the wheels!
