Just got my 98 240sx out of the paint shop its the factory colbolt green

Was thinking of painting my MB battles (that are matte gunmetal) to a hyper blue (IMHO they don't pop now)

White or chrome rims I don't like

Thinking maybe black

Wanted to build out a set of either vskf or blitz 03
In black and gold

But till that comes need to paint my rims

Seeking intelligent and suggestions
Thanks in advance

Leave your battles how they are....

Painting them will make it hard to sell later....

Sometimes less is more

Cobalt green is already an amazing color. Blue rims would clash with the green. Bronze, silver, or the color they are now would all look better.

Thanks for the input

The paint IMHO is amazing
The rims not so much
Kinda weak

It had to be....

How about Gold or Bronze? Lots of shades of those two look good with green.

Thought of that
My brembos are black now I was planning on doing them in gold

But if I do gold rims gonna have to figure out what to do the brembos

Congrats on the paint job, leave the rims as they are, just clean them up and keep them as is until you build the rims you really want.
