I'm thinking about getting my c2's spokes painted to match the car and leave the lip polished. Curious of peoples opinions and if anyone else has done this. If so any suggestions. I already talked to a powdercoating place and they said that they weren't capable of masking the lip. I was also thinking of having the lip polished or chrome plated first. anybody had that done?

C2's IMO would be hard to paint...but if you got the $$$ do it.

moneys not the issue, is that gonna look gay with the spokes white?

baka_t

It mite. I'm not really a fan of painted wheels unless they are hyper black or gunmetal.

I love the black rims with the polished lip, but unfortunately my car is white and it would look really gay with black rims.

Just looked at your www, and your car is clean I like it the way it is. I would put money into getting a kit or painting your bottom lips to match the color of your car. Btw, what size rims are those?

dhauter

19's

I'm thinking about getting a lip, or that billet grille that was posted here a couple of days ago.

I think I'm gonna have to go 19"s. I'd invest in a lip and have them paint your side and rear lips.

dhauter

I want a lip but I want it to look like Katana's. All molded so it looks like its one piece. go for the 19's. only size for the first gens.

Yup, I got 18"s and not really happy with them. Looks as if I'm gonna have to go 19"s.

dhauter

any pics?

baka_t

I have pics but my server is down and the site that covered the hawaii meet is down too. I'll try upload pics tomorrow. I have RH evo c5's.

baka_t

I only could find this one pic.

dhauter

Drop looks good, 19's would fills the wells more. Like the c5's.

baka_t

The drop is not bad. I'm still waiting for the final look with my kit on before I make my final decision on getting new rims. I have some better pics the car looks better in those pics.

dhauter

I really wish I would have waited to buy a black cl. oh well

SooDARK

dude black rims on a white CL would be tight as fuck!

baka_t

Black with a polished lip would look good IMO. I've seen many white cars with gunmetal or black wheels. It matches and looks nice.
