Need Rim color ideas
Looking to buy a pair of 3 piece rims over the winter for the car but I'm stuck on what will look really good on this car. The Barolo red seems like a tough color to decide rim color on. Ive been leaning on gunmetal since the stock color does flow pretty well on the car. I feel like black rims will just blend into much with the color of the car. Just looking for some opinions. If you have a idea of what type of rims you think would look good also, speak up lol sharing is caring lol

That is one beautiful color but yes black will definitely blend in to much. I have some examples of finishes we have done and also have a 3pc wheel promo going on for launch.
Hand Brushed w/ Copper Bronze & Gloss Clear
Candy Black w/ Rose Gold Bolts and Gloss Clear
Polish Gold
Hand Brushed w/ Monaco Copper & Gloss Clear
Hand Brushed w/ Bronze & Matte Clear
Hand Brushed w/ Translucent True Gold & Gloss Clear
Hand Brushed and Single Tint w/ Matte Clear
These are some of our finishes that we have done hope this helps and let me know if I can assist you in your next set of wheels.
Thank you,
Hand Brushed w/ Copper Bronze & Gloss Clear

^ I agree. Just putting up some pictures of how that red actually looks with those color wheels in the real world. Not some dolled up pics of colored wheels on cars whose paint is much more forgiving to aggressive paint themes.

Thank man. You are right though seeing wheels on different cars and different colored cars doesn't help much. Just gives a idea how the rim will look and not on the car which is the biggest issue . It's going to be a rough time deciding this for sure

Have you decided on the wheels already? Or is that still up in the air?

At the moment it's been between avd1, velos , and aristo. Avd1 is one of the only company's that I seen swear a 3.5 lip in the rear is possible on this car since they have done it a couple times already. The shop that does my work is a vender for velos so I can get them at a little bit of a better price. Aristo did a nasty setup for a widebody c63 awhile back that was gorgeous . The car is going to get dropped on accuair so the wheels need to set it off nasty .

for that shade of red I'd prefer a dark brushed tint, or a regular clear brushed tint, good luck

I don't remember exactly how wide the lip was, but I could rest my phone inside my wheel width wise and still had a little room to spare. I don't think it was quite 3.5'' but probably close to 3.

Have you seen pictures of my old advs? I bought them off a member, ran them for a while, and sold them to another member who I think is still trying to offload them now.

And I would pick a nice monoblock concave over a 3pcs wheels anyday.. Much more reliable less headache & a lot lighter.
