What color to redo my wheels (also need some Photo Shop help!)
well I finally bent a rim and am about to get it fixed. I figure i'll just redo all 4 wheels as they all have minor scuffs and such so I'm going to repaint them too.
I'm toying w/ a few colors, flat black, glossy black, a richer bronze, or gold. I'm kind of leaning towards a richer bronze (more goldy then what I have now), what do you guys think?

yea, i think if I went black i'd do flat over glossy. All my friends are pushing black, except one who wants bronze, and I put his judgement over everyone elses that's inside my life outside of the internet.

I kind of like orange
I may just redo my girls 3 piece SSR's black w/ a polished lip, they are just super soft wheels and don't know if I wanna deal w/ them
polished lip wouldn't work on my wheels cause there isn't a lip

The Vette wheels don't have a real "lip" either, it's just that outer stepped part.
I was gonna say the orange matched your front ambers that you refuse to change.

orange > * although it'll be hard to manipulate that color maybe? if it's a lil off it'll look like ass..
blue would look nice if you had a white car =)
it'll take guts to have rims that aren't black, red, white, gunmetal or silver though =)
