Of the two, green is my favorite! All in all though... I'm partial to a more neutral or metallic wheel color.

If there is another color change on the horizon, I don't see any issues with this. Have fun, its just a car.
Yes, there is another color change on the horizon if I still have these wheels after awhile. Although it will probably be paint instead of plasti dip and will be a satin black as that is the overall theme I plan to take the car with.

Naw, I've never been a fan of painted stock calipers. If anything I might paint them black to make them blend in more.

I think its hilarious that the subaru blue series comes with red painted calipers from the factory

Bronze.

Black.

Silver.

Gold.

This is probably just a limitation on my part, but anytime I see neon wheels on a car, I just assume (correctly) that it's being driven by a 19yo male with baggy pants, gauged ears and a DC cap worn back-to-front.

Sorry. :-(

But those colors defeat the purpose of Plasti Dip IMO. It's a great way to try something out that you wouldn't do normally for a fraction of the price of doing it right.

19 = nope
male = shacked it!
baggy pants = nope
gauged ears = nope
any cap in any direction = nope
