powder coating 20's what would look best on ip

On my way to powdercoater & thought matte balck is a little played out.

I figured I wanted a different look.

Powdercoater sugested a white face with a black lip.(2 pc forged Savini's sv71)

what would you do, I can have any colors I can think of.

Any suggstions on color.? almost forgot I have some black in my paint scheme. (grill & roof are black)

getting rid of the chrome for powdercoating, just would like some input.

Thanks.

Honestly, keep the wheels stock and sell them. Save and get a good set of rims. Wheels are one of the most impacting if not the top mod you can do esthetically to the car. A good set of rims can make the car. Painted stocks... are just that. Get some 285's for the back, 255's for the front if this is a coupe, the car will even ride better.

Dont do white face with a black lip.

Its semi played out but black face white lip would go better with your theme.

matte black looks sick, but is a pain to clean. it's not played out though, how many cars on the road do you see with matte black wheels? (internet land doesnt count)

Think it was +35 front and +38 rear? I don't think you need spacers, you can always see how they look mounted and then go buy some 10MM if you want it super-flush. I thought the offsets were fine but YMMV

Good luck!
