Question Your Thoughts please

how do you guys feel about people that color match or close to color match wheels to the color of the car? i've been thinking about this lately and not sure if it's cheesy or could it look real good? Your thoughts? That is my car in my avatar, so base it off that.

Ask for a photochop.

For me, it depends on what color your car is and how you do it.

I've seen HOT black-on-black and white-on-white TLs but at the same time, they can be gaudy

Post a pic of your car on an angle (close to the angle on the wheel above) and I'll chop it for you.

I doubt it they will be that bright compared to his car. maybe if you darken them a little since the wheels in the pic are kind of in a shade so it seems

about 30 minutes usually. It depends on the angle of the wheel and the angle of the car. They have to be somewhat close or it won't look realistic.
