Im slowly getting parts from my old TA ready to sell, and next on the list are the rims. They are the 85 WS6 wheels with the polished lip and originally came with gold centers from the recaro package. Since I have more time than money I am going to completely restore them before I sell them to earn a little more for go-fast parts on the new car, but I'm not sure what color to paint the centers which would appeal to more people.

What color do you guys think would look best on the centers of this wheel?

a) the dark gold color thats on there now
b) black
c) the lighter gold that came originally (same color as gold GTA wheels)
d) silver

Thanks for the help, and if anybody has been wanting a nicely refinished set of this style wheel shoot me a pm and I'll let you know when I get them done.

 

i would leave the centers color matched.

one thing that would be more work, but mightlook trick...


i don't like it now that i have photochoped it.... but i was not about to do all that work and not share

 

not quite sure about that, but A for effort. I'm not trying to do anything unique here to set my car apart, Im just asking what color you guys think is the most appealing on this style wheel so I have a better chance of them selling.

 

Stock gold.

 

they do not look to bad, so just leave them like that and if they dont sell then do the work, that way someone can choose what color they would like them.

 

I've always thought they looked the best gold personally, I was just trying to see what everybody else was liking. The color of the wheel in the picture is one that I had redone (I only got through 2 of them before the car was totalled). So I guess I will keep the darker gold and just finish the other two the same way. Thanks for the opinions guys.

 

just get a small bird decal and put them on the center caps. a black one would look real cool on the gold caps

 

Black

 

Just strip them and that way the buyer can paint them whatever color he/she wants.
