IMO this is far from popular given how often you see them and how much hate they bring. Popular is the typical black/silver/grey/gold/bronze that you see on aftermarket wheels.

That being said, these wheels are super cheap and unfortunately also come with a super cheap coating that was chipping off after a couple months. I'm planning on painting them when I move into a house again but to temporarily "fix" them I decided to have some fun with some different colors of plastidip.

After I see them now, I love them! But there is no way I would rock them permanently as it doesn't fit in with my final plan for this car.

Either way I'm loving the hate/love!

Well the green looks better than the yellow, IMHO. But if it were my car, I'd try and see what black wheels look like.

Yellow is way better than Green, as its almost a direct compliment. However, yellow is better as a highlight than *BAM* in your face.

I find the problem with black rims is they 'disappear', gunmetal would work well. But out of those two colours, I like the yellow. Reminds me of this.

I don't like the florescence either but the yellow isn't awful!

If there is another color change on the horizon, I don't see any issues with this. Have fun, its just a car.
