Opinion...

My wife wants me to paint the wheels this color. I did this on the back porch last night, lighting was bad so its just a rough idea of what she wants....

Re: Opinion...

Car will be canary yellow. This is off the front and it has a big gash on it so i'm not using it on the car, just trying something different. I have a set of ss 10 spokes that I want to paint a dark metalic grey with a polished lip and paint the same color 2 inch stripe where the black and gold stripes use to be above the ground effects. Its too much of a pain to tape these wheels up to paint. Any ideas or disagreements welcome.

Re: Opinion...

Yellow car with black wheels and maybe black stripes looks OK , a yellow car with yellow wheels looks fine i guess but could be pushing it a little bit much. =
