I painted my rims over this last week (primed and clear coated too)

the color is Lamborghini blue electric metallic

tell me what you think! (as long as its positive :thmsup: )

It actually looks pretty BA. You have any shots of the blue underglow on along with the blue rims?

Just a suggestion, I'd paint the center cap and lug nuts black. Just me, though.

ill try and get some tonight :)

and the caps are taffeta white the glare just makes them look weird

and i just ordered some blue lugs (a little darker than the wheel) that are powdercoated but im still waiting for those to come in

Are these RSX wheels? I think if you painted your OEM 18's they wouldve looked better

18's have too many spokes

and the 19's look much better on the car

and no they are Gewalt Evo II's (usually made for bmws)

damn u got ballz, good job

hahaha this was probably the biggest P.I.T.A. ever
im still not sure it was worth the time when i couldve paid 145 a wheel to fix/refurb/and paint/powdercoat them

but i didnt have the money haha

i love the orange

but i have a blue logo and blue footwell lighting inside and blue underglow haha

so orange wouldve been a little out of place

but heck yea im saving for teinSS coilovers and itll be sick!

but i have to wait until im out of school cause the speed bumps are 5in high

i think it would look sick if you tinted your tail lights too.. tinted tails looks the best on white cars :)

im trying to decide between film and paint cause they do look different

and im gonna leave the white reverse area white and just tint the red

Very professional project, that took real guts, and it went very well, I like this Blue color. Thank you for sharing Regards

Yeah deff tint the tails ; cause the red on the tails kills the blue rims . It'll flow so much better . I just brought some tints from Rvinyl , just never got the chance to install em . its only like 30$ , thats nothing .

agh crap man i forgot

im gonna pm u in a minute

freaking awesome! I have chrome 5zigen gravis's but I am contemplating getting powder coated. i don't know if thats a good idea for chrome wheels. Maybe I should've waited and gotten the not chromed version...

Look good but too small imo.

they are 19" i dont want 20s if im going to slam my car

not my cup of tea but it WORKS!!!! im digging it

:puke:


Sorry...........too loud for my taste.

I actually like it alot! If it was me I'da done takata green... but hte blue looks sharp!

Oh that's why they look small because it's not dropped yet, but I do like it. Not the best wheel but the paint makes it neato.

I should paint my stocks that color :D

dude u have no idea how bad i've been itching to paint my stocks that color... but beacuse i know i'll need them some day when i sell this car in a few years... i dont wnana mess with them.

Paint yours and see if you like it, if not I'll trade you mine ;)

i know i'll like it... i photoshopped it a while back... just dont wanna do something that different to my stocks that I know i'll need in a few years.

I'm sure someone will like them enough to buy them off of me or at least trade me stock v6 wheels at that time....


but i'm feelin my 20's now...

I was gonna paint the stock v6 ones in green... and put then on my prelude with 30 series low pro tires after I painted it.

A guy that's related to my neighbor had asked me how much I wanted to sell mine for and I told him I wasn't sure at the time. He came over again and I told him 1000 for wheels / tires heh, he said he'd have to do some research.

Think when I'm off, I'm going to wash them at least, haven't messed with them since I mounted my new ones. Need to at least keep them good looking heh.

seems like those wheels should have beefier tires...idk

Yea 40 series probably wouldve been good, what is it right now? 35?

35 would have the profile ratio off and is probably thowing off the speedometer too.

Well...it's unique, not sure the wheels are the right kind to pull off a color like that.

How much for the neon LED underglow..just curious..and did you get it from Streetglow.com..and how much was the rims with the paint? I like the whip tho...lookz hot..

nah its not i took it into honda to make sure its only 1mm different in diameter from the stock18's with stock tires

i kno i love that color but i have a blue theme on my car (interior lights, underlights, headlights, emblem)

its dropped but not much

the front has 1.5 finger room and the back has 2 fingers

it cost me 150 and its multiple colors

and the total $ i spent on the rims was $500 for all 4 rims because insurance was only offering my friend $100 for all 4

plus the $520 for repair and refurbish for the rims

and $60 for the painting

and $850 for the falken tires

total ive spent $2030 which is 170 less than the wheels alone brand new so ive done well haha

These rims only kinda work on a white car but they look good... So you spend 60 each or 60 for all 4 to paint them? what kind of paint was it?

60 total for the paint (15 a wheel)
its the nissan 370z blue thats been tweaked to be a little darker like the lambo electric blue metallic

the company i had my wheels refurbished and fixed with made me the paint (sears auto center cracked and bent a rim, luckily the crack was only 1cm deep)

I wouldn't even wear a shirt that color let alone paint my rims that color.And then actually drive that around! What is the world coming too!! Thats my humble opinion

im trying to decide between film and paint cause they do look different

and im gonna leave the white reverse area white and just tint the red

did you paint it by your self or u took it to shop?
where did u get the paint if u painted it by your self?

the color is dope man.. im loving it..

you should put a blue pinstripe right down the seem along the side of your whip on both sides... i just imagined that and i think it would look sick..
