I bought another set of 18s with hopes to polish, but there's some rash on the spokes that would require me to remove too much material, so I filled in the rash and am going to paint them. Which color do you think would fetch the most interest?
- OEM Silver
- Gun Metal / Graphite
- Black


BTW, this isn't a for sale post, I'm still going to use them in the summer for their original purpose of autox, but I know I'll sell them at some point so I want a good universal color.

These are going on your SRM, correct?

IMO...that color is so damn gorgeous, that OEM silver looks badass. Gun metal/Graphite would take away from the color. Black = no.

Unless you paint the inside black, or something. To show off the spokes more. Just a suggestion.

(Remember...this is coming from a guy who actually LIKES the stock 17s)

It will be on SRM for the summer, I just don't want to shoot myself in the foot and paint them a color no one else would buy. I personally don't care what color my autox rims are.

yea. im not a big fan of trying to ship them...iv had a few people interested but they can never commit. but...o well. i might need them one day...but if they right person comes along and will give me the asking price. then i have no problem letting them go. hell, they even have tires on them...but one needs to be replaced...but not completely balled yet.

I have a temptation to paint these gold. I haven't seen it on a GTO, and I think it would be interesting to do for ****s and giggles. I still have at least a couple weeks before it gets warm enough for me to paint these.
