Default Painting these rims gold... opinions?



I want to paint these bad boys to gold. and perhaps leave the lip polished.
Will be going on a Blue car.. I've liked the blue/gold color scheme.

What you guys think?

So you say you're painting the rims gold, but then you say the spokes will be gold and the rims will be silver?

wtf? where u getting that? lol
paint it gold but leave the LIP silver/polished...

anywho.. doubt i'll paint. Most likely id be better off trading for a set of gold rims that come that way. Dont want to deal with the gold not being the color I want.

Are you familiar with the difference between rims and wheels?
