so heres the deal. i traded someone on this site my Si rims for these 17 inch racing hart s7's. my car is eternal blue and the rims are gunmetal as you can see and i dont think they match the car. give me some input PLEASE.





im looking to trade these out or sell them. im looking to get a set of racing hart c2's so if anyone has a set or know anyone selling/trading a set let me know.

If you like the wheels and don't like the color, have them powdercoated w/e color you like, should be able to get this done for a reasonable price.

hmm i think i woulda kept the si rims and bought something so u wouldn't have second thoughts about, but they don't look that bad.

 
Rep Power: 256

yeah drew i was thinkin of getting them powder coated...how much would be reasonable per wheel? i got quoted at 50 per rim.

 
Rep Power: 302

get them powdercoated. i paid 50.00 a rim

 
Rep Power: 365

$50/rim is a reasonable price, but I think they look good as they are.

C2s are hot though...

Yeah, they're like flat gray...

 
Rep Power: 256

yeah i was gonna get them powdercoated a silver...50 bucks a rim is reasonable then? anybody know if a good powdercoating place here in san diego?

looks okay, but not perfect either

What's your drop? Btw they look --okay--, they don't look ugly enough for you to change them ASAP, but I'd take my time with the money, and eventually change em

$50 is a good price to get them powdercoated. Usually i hear anywhere from $50-$150 a wheel. I think you should do a Dark Bronze color or else i've seen some people do a black wheel with blue stripe around the edge. But it's up to you.

I actually like them as they are, but blacking out your headlights would also help a lot

^^ like he said black em out and the rims will look sweet. i like them. leave em for a little and if you still dont like them change them.

 
Rep Power: 252

yea i think its best that you get them powdercoated, the rims look nice but its just the color of them they dont contrast much with the color of the car

 
Rep Power: 289

i say powercoat them a bronze or goldish color, black out your lights an lower it a bit more(optional)

 
Rep Power: 282

dark bronze powdercoat. they blend too much with the blue paint

 
Rep Power: 278

Sorry bro, I don't like them. Paint them white.

 
Rep Power: 285

anything looks better than those si wheels. just too plain imo. but yah, i agree that bronze wheels look great on blue

 
Rep Power: 349

i'd powdercoat them gold if i was you.

thanks a lot guys for the input!!! sometimes the color grows on me...then i get the itch to change it again!!! i've photochopped some pictures of what i wanna do so tell me what you think! by the way i suck at photoshop so dont laugh too much.

im planning to get a CF front lip so i tried this.
blacked headlights and mesh grill w/my rims:


haha also i messed around with ruffryde009's civic and came up with this:


anyone wanna take a shot at photoshopping stuff feel free to do so!!! thanks

 
Rep Power: 292

yea i'd have to agree. a CF hood would also make the rims look better.

Looks good

Reminds me a lot of DC2 ITRs

 
Rep Power: 256

yeah the more i see the rims the more they grow on me...so i guess blacking out the headlights, mesh grill, and CF lip will be in the works soon.

 
Rep Power: 273

thanks nice photoshoP! :-D

the headlights and lip will definately do it!

It shouldn't be hard to find someone to do them in SD, and if you want your lights blacked out at a really good price send me a message because I know a guy who does really good work, if you want a sample look at my taillights

 
Rep Power: 288

they're not bad man..

I think bronze goes nice with that blue

 
Rep Power: 278

I find that they look ok on your car.

 
Rep Power: 361

i think they look good the color they are. otherwise do up bronze/gold.
