color help

http://www.5zigenusa.com/w_fn01rc.html

please take a look I need some opinions on which color should I get my rims. it will be going on my redish brown bug.

was thinking the hyper black is a little to flashy
so leaning towards matte black
but the bronze may go well with the brownish tint to my car

what do you think?

Given some of the chrome still aboard, I like "Black Polish" first, "Bronze" a close second, and "Hyper Black" a more distant third. Then again, I've never been a big fan of all-black wheels even though it's very "now."

I would say the black ones with the polished lip. The reason being flat black wheels have no depth or character to them at all, no matter what. At least with the gloss black on a polished lip the wheel will stick out at bit more. Dark colored rims seem to only look good if you have big shiny/flashy brakes behind them. What are you doing for brakes?

My vote.

rip,

nice choice of rims, right now I'm using a Rota Toxxin 17x7 +42 offset rims with 4x114.3 bolt patterns, but as soon as I have the right amount of money, I'll go for a 5Zigen GN+ Pro Racer with the same offset but different pcd I'll go for the 5x114.3.

Here's my 1302-S


Here's the 5Zigen GN+ Pro Racer rims.


P.S. Pls. post a pic. after you install it ok? tnx.

no problem about the pics but may take a bit I hope by the end of summer to get it put together.

BTW went with the bronze, for some thing different. Looks nice if you ask me.

Thanks for the opinions
Rip
