White On White??

I was thinking about re-painting my wheels......I just wanted to get some opinions on whether its a no or a go......I have the 03 CL-S rims, but a few of them are a little curb rashed....i figured I would get them sanded down, and re-painted with some money I have saved up. I think my car would look nice with the stock rims painted......at first i was gunna go with black, but i grew out of that one quick and now I'm thinkin white on white......If someone can photoshop a pic of my car with white rims, just so i can get an idea, that'd be greatt.....other than that, opinions are always appreciated!!


Heres some pics :

Dont do it to the stock rims!! I love white on white. If you get 19's with a chrome lip and white center, I think it would look sick. Here's a pic of a 645 I supplied wheels for, Car Repertoire in Providence did the work.

Well everyone has their opinions to it... Most people really like it. I know I'm fan. This was over a year ago, before Rick Ross ever said white on white for the Phantom!!

I love the look of the wheels matching the body, (“rice”… ) looks hot! Especially when the rims are 19” plus! I personally think any import wheels are “rice”, no matter how expensive, lightweight and popular they are… if you see them on any tuner then its defiantly "rice"!

how can every import wheel = rice? then what're you left with?

Foose? Davin?

so what happens when someone else buys the same foose/davin wheel? is that considered rice too?

Definitley not every import wheel is rice.... thats ridiculous. Volk racing isn't rice and that is geared towards imports. Maybe the no name 17" wheel you buy at a tire shop is rice.

I'm pretty sure that most of the fast and furious neon lights and racing stripes adding 10 hp days are gone. Very rarely do I see it anymore, and when you do see a 94 civic with a wing the size of our car, you just have to laugh and shake your head!!

I don't know about being only left with foose and davin if every import wheel is rice. There are 250+ brands of wheels.

OK, so maybe not every import wheel... but, I've seen some posts on here labeling some name brand wheels as "rice"...? Is it because of the style, price, brand...? It just seems like a contradiction when members call something "rice" when they themseleves have "rice" tendencies...

everything that is 'not accepted' on this forum as a general consensus is 'rice'. the term rice has been so hackneyed on here way too many ppl have been using the term whenever they feel something is other than the typical "RJ, +50 offset, and 8" width"; you included. what the fuck is a ride tendency? geezus.
