I personally like them the way they are. I'm a big fan of gold on white.

the question always boggles my mind. why do you care what we think? what color do you want them to be??

I'm thinking white, black, or gold

I think the gold would look good with the white

Woah! How do you get things to stick to your ceiling like that? You in the southern hemisphere?

If you don't plan to go all out on the prep and paint then leave them gold. rims painted black poorly look utterly turrible. gold on white is classic

plastidip to try out different colors.

Just because you think something looks cool doesn't mean you should do it. I've seen lots of people talked out of doing stupid things to their cars or bikes because they asked a forum first. Nothing wrong with getting the opinion of people whose ideas you've liked.

 

Personally, I think the gold looks good on white cars. If you're going to get something painted, do your mirrors, door handles, and trim. That will do a lot more for the overall look of your car.

Seams unanimous to me about the gold on white, it will look great on your wagon.

Hahahaha. Centrifugal force. His house is actually a sooped up ferris wheel.

i say go fuschia! or deep purple!

Lol. Well I sprained my wrist at work so waiting for it to heal before I can install rims. And I'm going to wait to get new tires and just do a straight swap. Keeping them gold color and just going to power wash them to get the brake dust off

Go buy some duplicolor gold from the parts store and give them a fresh coat. Call it a day.

I would say somewhere around 3 inches lower then stock, maybe 4. I didn't measure before but I'm low enough now that I can't fit my hand between the fenders and the wheel. My fingers just barely fit to my second knuckle. Be prepared to learn what roads you can and can't drive on anymore as well if you go this low. There are places around town I completely avoid cause I know I'm going to scrape. But it handles good and it isn't back breaking stiff and I like how it looks.

im almost as low (back needs to go farther down on mine i think), and ive found many speed bumps i cant go over without scraping as well. i also have to make provisions for putting it on ramps, alignment racks, lifts and stuff like that.

Yup. I have to drive on to blocks in order to get a jack under my car. The price you pay I guess. I don't mind it

I probably won't go that low. I'm figuring about 2 inches or so.
