Alright, so I'm thinking about getting my wheels painted and I have black mica 2010 mazda 3. I was thinking about going with the black theme since I already have blacked emblems and stuff but, I'm not so sure. So colors I'm thinking of painting my wheels are either bronze, matte black, or white. I found a black hatchback with black wheels and I like it: Black car with ... color wheels...... What do you others think about colors?

Personally, I'm not a fan of totally blacked out cars. If I was to get wheels that weren't the traditional painted or brushed aluminum, I'd go for a gun mettle finish versus gold or a painted color.

Let me.grab a pick of my buddies blacked out 6... It looks nice.


Okay here is a quick pick from facebook... it is not up to date, he has matte black hashmarks on it now..

I personally like the blacked out look especially with the wheels for the ones I have seen. But, I'm willing to try something new because it won't look that bad with either bronze or white. It will be a hard decision.

lower it

 

[Rherold9]

Yeah I probably will once if I get my way

 

[hwdp pl]

It'll just look silly at stock height.

 

[Rherold9]

Yup, I'm probably going to get RM 1.25

 

[hwdp pl]

Pussy shit, I'm on 1.75 :tongue:

 

[Rherold9]

I'd buy coilovers but, I don't got the money.

[Rherold9]

Yeah, I know. I need to get money first though haha.

Even at stock height, if you have good wheels it doesnt look bad. I am still riding stock height and I still get plenty of compliments, so honestly you don't have to rush to get things done!

If you aren't going to track /auto-x the car... CO's are a waste of $

Yeah, I know. I'm going to wait and see what happens for the holidays. I want the wheels painted for sure ASAP not too worried about a drop right at this moment.

Well, put it this way.... ANY REAL coilover setup will cost you in the upwards of 2K anyways. If you don't track / autocross your car, then you are in the same league as the Honda fanboi's that just want their car to be slammed Yo. If you want a "drop" then get a nice spring/strut setup. Most CO's need to be revalved/rebuilt over time (20K) with track use... Maybe 50K non track use. And these numbers are coming from experience.... Not from reading someone else's uneducated install.

Don't insult my intelligence

Attempt to pick apart my opinions.

Just stating my opinion.... It's your $. Do what you want.
