I like gunmetal with green, but thats just me

w0rdie · 09-24-2002, 07:43 PM

It doesn't contrast enough with gunmetal-- imo.

SADWAP97 · 09-24-2002, 07:51 PM

silver.

red98lude · 09-24-2002, 08:22 PM

I'd stick with silver wheels

gunmetal be different

azninside · 09-25-2002, 09:23 AM

silver...white'd look bad

ShadowSonic · 09-25-2002, 10:13 AM

You can go silver with a chrome lip or polished? that would look pretty cool deep dish.

Bronze looks great on EGP preludes....

id get bronze

azninside · 09-25-2002, 10:48 AM

hey, what's the difference between silver, polished an chrome? I take it chrome (hella shiny/reflective) silver (not as reflective) an polished is like a mix in between....is this correct? could you please explain the real differences between the looks.

for instance, I was thinkin of buying RH CP-035's if I don't get C5's, but they don't have silver, only white, gold an polished....do the polished look more like silver or more like chrome?

Silver is a bit dull, polished its like your prelude stock rims.. same goes for polished lips smooth and shiny, chrome its the ultime shine looks good but dont dent it or rust will attack

go silver if you want to not be in a "Fad" and have a look that is always in style(polished/machined whatever you want to say,but not painted silver), go bronze to be different,and gunmetal to be in style right now

that's why I like silver...you hit the nail on the head....the others are just a fad. they'll look good at certain times or on certain cars, but then they start to look bad/played out an you go back to silver

w0rdie · 09-25-2002, 03:30 PM

Yea they have a point-- silver is tried and true.

big blue h22 · 09-25-2002, 11:52 PM

def. dont go white on EGP, go gunmetal with polished lip, thats bad a**, but if u dont like gunmetal, go with silver, that'd look tite

check out Ro_Ja formula 5s in gunmetal with polished lip. These rims aren't cheap though.
