Help needed in choosing color rims for RED FR-S
 
Ive decided on getting the Rays Gram Lights 57Xtreme 18X8.5 for my red FR-S. I need help in deciding what color rims best to pair with my RED FR-S. Either Matte Graphite, Black, Winning Blue or the new Velvet Blue. Most use graphite or black which is why I thought blue would be kinda unique...just have no clue whether its a good match.

Definitely black or atleast carbon fibre plastidipped.

mswhong 08-08-2013 06:49 AM

Blue? Now that's something I wanna see! But matte black/black against red always goes well :)

I vote for white!!! White wheels always look good on red!!

charged86 08-08-2013 08:06 AM

I voted black Lamborghini and Ferrari and others all use this color combo. white is soooo early 2000's

Just to clarify I'm trying to choose a color for the 57xtreme rims... This isn't about plasti dipping rims.

matte graphite would look great.

For starters I have a red FRS, and I spent quite some time deciding color for the wheels I got. Black is a cool color choice on some ocassions (as much as people have lead us to believe it goes well with anything). I'm not a fan of it on a red car.

A friend of mine has black wheels (work brand) on his red FRS, you can barely see them at night. and during the day it doesn't show off as well as the gold or regular metal color ones.

I'm not a fan of blue color for a red car. So that's why I haven't voted.

I have a red FRS, and my wheels are the sparco assetto gara, their gold color is more close to titanium tone. and I absolutely love them.

These are blue rims I think on a red FR-S which to me looks quite good...they actually look like 57Xtreme's to me.

Why no silver option??

the_butcher 08-09-2013 07:19 PM

Silver with red lugs = sex

If I was paying that much for wheels, I would want them to pop against the red.

I think silver or gunmetal wheels work best with red.

Red and Blue are two of the only colors which can really make silver wheels look classy.

Chee-Hu 08-13-2013 03:22 PM

Bronze

The first black wheels were back in the days of hub caps and all black wheels look like a guy lost his hub caps and was too cheap to replace them. The first gold wheels were on pimp-mobiles and still remind a lot of people of them. Silver, titanium or white all look good on a red car.

I agree :w00t: and I would not install BLACK wheels on any car. No flash.. looks like wagon wheels :barf:

Bronze and white are the two best wheel colors for red. Period.
