Righty then, just picked up some wheels for my soarer, paint on them is pretty nasty. Someone's had a go at a refurb but failed. I'm going to have them repainted, but not sure on a colour.. Anyone got any ideas?

Car for those who don't know...



And the wheels super advans...

Usually i would say silver but seen as it's a pretty old (but cool) jap car now i would go for gold. It's the perfect colour for 3 spokes imo and even better against the black.

depends how bad they are matey, if they can just be rubbed down and painted then all good, if they have corrosion then an acid dip is best

Dark green will look nice, with a candy/pearl effect.
