Refinishing Rims. Help me choose a colour.

It is that time to refinish my rims and want to do it before the summer ends. I was pretty confident that I wanted to do them in Satin Black, but now I am having second thoughts.

Bright bright yellow with or without Polish lip.
Gunmental with Polish lip.
Satin black with or without Polish lip.
Just Keep them the same?

Help me out guys....

hm.. only reason i might not do satin black is because it does accentuate the wheel gap a bit more. I am already lowered on Eibachs and don't want to go lower >.<.

Gunmetal throughout looks sleeker IMO, polished lip might look a bit tacky

It's actually not chrome. It's hyper Silver and it's pretty damn hard to maintain in good condition.

gunmetal is the best colour if you don't like to clean your wheels



and buy this works very well. all you need to do is spray and wash

This does work quite well. However, I don't know if it's for all bottles or am I just unlucky, but the sprayer kept fucking up on me. I had to switch to a different sprayer for it to work.
