Painting my iforged wheels, need some opinions
I dropped my rim on the pavement and left a big curb rash on the lip of my wheel. I'm going to take it to www.fixrim.com and since they charge a flat fee of $109 to do anything to the wheel I was thinking about painting the inside of my iforged's flux wheels. If you guys need repair for your wheels, customer service is great. The person spent an hour talking about different finishes and the process. The turn around time is 24 hours which is impressive. Below are some wheel finishes that I'm interested. Let me know what you guys think.

Re: Painting my iforged wheels, need some opinions
I like the wheels on the white BMW too. To me, too dark of a center on polished lips makes it look like you have white walls. Like the grey BMW below the white one.
When I ordered Iforged, I wanted gunmetal centers, with a brushed, or satin lip. Two weeks before they were to be done, I was told I could only have polished or chrome on the lip. Their gunmetal was too dark and I did not like the contrast so I cancelled and went with BBS.

Re: Painting my iforged wheels, need some opinions
I would say since you have a DG car, don't match it. I would get a lighter silver or white with a glossy finish. I don't fancy darker color rims unless it's on a black car. This is just my opinion however and I'm sure whatever you do would look good. Just don't do what my friend did to his RSX, he think's it's nice but I told him it was ugly from the start. Black car, bronze flat rims, and blue lug nuts, CAN YOU SAY CLASH!? He told me it would look good but.. w/e.

Those are the BBSs I put on instead of the Iforged. I went with 18's and Toyos. If you want to see how they look on DG in person, pm me and you can take a look. I'm in Costa Mesa.

Option #4 is freakin' hot! Man, that looks really good.
bkchang79 did you go directly through iForged to buy your wheels? What size did you get and how much did they cost if you don't mind me askin'? Thanks...
