    What kind of wheels for cactus green??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm looking around at wheels for next year and wanted to see what types and colors others have put on their cars.

    Or what you think would look good?

    I'm trying to stay somewhat low priced.

    thanks

    include pics if possible

    I went with a dark silver color, almost like gunmetal.

    Omg thank you, you just blew my mind. I was looking at getting these wheels and wanted to see them on a green a4, and there they are. And the color your made them is just like what I wanted to do. These on my avant will make it look so fly. Where did you get them done at and what color are they exactly.

    I would tint the windows and get gloss black w/ a chrome or polished lip.
    I hate it when my car acts like a little bitch, treating me like a bitch

    I did them myself, my dad has a autobody shop so that helped alot. I found them at a junk yard for $200. They were pretty beat up so i sanded them all down to bare aluminum them primered, sanded again, then painted and cleared them. I can't tell you what color they are, i just went to a auto paint store and chose a color out of a book, not sure what the name is, its a PPG color though. They are holding up great, i got the best clear i could buy to do these since they will take some abuse. Cheaper clears are softer and will chip and scratch easily.

    I wouldn't get black, but gunmetal does look the best I think. If you're really undecisive, you can never go wrong with silver wheels on any car.

    My buddy has one with Rieger kit on it. He needed wheels just for Waterfest so he borrowed some shitbox wheels for that weekend. They were black with chrome lip. The wheels were crappy but the look of that color combo was pretty good.
