Gold or Bronze Wheels

[HungLo]

I am looking to get gold or bronz wheels for my car. Does anyone know a good place to go. Most of the wheel places I have gone to like wheelmax and wheelsnext have a very small selection. I have been kicking around the idea... I have a black beetle.

Try Discounttires.com or the tire rack

Just buy the wheels you want regardless of clolr and paint them bronze/gold. It's not as hard as one thinks and if you take your time you will get great results.

So, just do it yourself. It's only paint. Just remember to clearcoat the wheels when you're finished and to prep the painting surface well.

how much prep is involved??? If that is the case, I am thinking of ordering the HP evos, and then painting those, and then leaving a nice chrome lip... If I do it as soon as I get them, I shouldn't have to do that much right.... I am just trying to avoid a high tack factor...

What color is youe car? Black cars look best with silver wheels, not gold or bronze. The only car that can pull off gold wheels is an WRX STi, Subie blue sets them off very nicely.

yeah, I scrapped the gold rim idea. My bug is black, but I figure I'd set my car apart from the thousands upon thousands of cars rocking those damn bbs style rims... I went with these instead... They come in Wednesday



I will have pics by the end of the week
