Re: Color options for old rims

Seth

Be careful of gold rims. They seem to detract from an SVX rather than add to the mix.

Mike added gold rims recently to his all-claret, which should have worked, but they were more like Mmmmmm?.

But I hold my hand up and declare I'm not a fan of gold rims. I think people have a nostalgia thing for them purely because Subaru used them on the rally cars. Because of this rally connection the Japanese have a penchant for putting gold aftermarket Enkeis on everything. Most of the time they look brutal.

Gunmetal looks great on your car.
