really think soo? its either paint wheels ($80) or get some angel eyes ($185)



The angel eye is $100 more (smash)
 
I REEEEALLY wanted to paint the wheels on my MGM but decided not to. It's just gonna look dirty, especially gunmetal. Resembles brake dust build up color. And black is darker than the paint on the car and I feel doesn't match well. Throws it off.

Well, this is just me, but I'm extra anal about those kinds of things.

Yeah, anyone good at photoshop? Almost looks black there tho, a lighter pic as well? Subbed!!
 
Stay with silver. I don't think the black wheels look good on a black car. The silver stock rims look really nice on the black mica, but if you want to change the wheels, I would say stay with silver.
 
If you are going to paint them either bronze or gunmetal will look great. No black as it seems like most Speed3s here paint them black.
 
here are a couple quick chops

My computer is very dark on the highest brightness. This should help. The other guy's flat blacks are way better
