Default Big changes coming! Need some opinions.

So in the next couple weeks, my car will be going through the next phase. Some big changes are being made, and amongst those, Ill be changing the colors on the wheels. Daily driving has been putting some wear and tear on the car, so its time to freshen it up and take it to the next step. So, here are my 3 choices. Wheels will stay the same, but getting redone.

Option 1: Leave them the same. Blue lip, flat black center. Ill be re-spraying the lips though as Im not TOO thrilled with the quality of them now.



Option 2: All flat black. I kinda like this look, but am afraid it mat be too played out. This is a photoshop, so dont laugh at my skills. lol



Option 3: Flat black lip, flat gunmetal center. This is my favorite and will most likely be the route I go. Not too many cars with this setup and I think it just looks mean. Also a photoshop I did.





So what do you guys think? Im leaning towards #3 but its always nice to hear feedback.

Your current setup is by far my favorite. Enjoy whichever you choose!

i like the current setup, as well as the all black one (#2). I just don't think that the gunmetal flows well with ur car, might look better in real life though

I like the gun metal but think you should keep the blue lip, so foto chop that and see what it looks like.

I think that would look pretty good with the silver bolts too to kind of leave some contrast. Good thing is these wheels come apart, so if I ever change my mind...its easy to fix. lol

I know it's always nice to take things in a new direction, and if you do, I like Option #3, but I really like the current set up. The black face and blue lip really ties everything together with the car while adding that small detail that I really like.

Good luck with your decision.
