Athens Blue Coupe Wheel Choice/color?

Hey guys, as many of you have gone through this I need help with some choices. I think I have finally settled on getting the Axis MOD wheels. If anyone has any thoughts for similar priced wheels let me know. What this post is really about is the color of wheel I should use with my Athens Blue color. If you know of pictures of the AB with black wheels please share.




Pics are of the wheels I am considering.

G35Driver member AthenG has done a nice job with his car. The silver seems to work very nicely.

Maybe its the lighting. Athens changes shades so much depending on the lighting.

Just curious to know if you just don't like black wheels? I am thinking that the Athens won't look good with black but I can't judge this until I see one with them. I did some photoshoped wheels but they didn't come out so well.

I am thinking that the black might have a chance here. This is a Caribean Blue though.

I know Modse7en only comes in two colors gloss black & offcourse silver. Personally it all depends on what kind of look your are trying to get on your ride. For classy look definetly go with silver. Btw hope you getting them wheels in 20's...........

Gold sounds good. I did had gold 5Zigen Heidfelds on my Red FD RX-7. But why not ge the MOD wheels? What is wrong with those?

I will be definately getting 20's. No questions asked. I am thinking the black look will be nice since my lights are all tinted. I may be designing some black graphics for the car too.

Sounds good. I really wonder if black wheels would look good on every color G35.
