TRACStar Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 I realized yesterday that I can not afford tires for my volans yet so I have decided to refinish them. Question is what color should I make them I like the anth., but bright silver does look good on a darker car, or I could just get silly and paint them black. I think the black would give it a nice look, but it could also look like shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaitz Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 I was wondering what black would look like on mine. You guinea pig it for me and try it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRACStar Posted August 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 If you want to see what Black on Black looks like you should checkout CJ's wagon. I personally like it alot, makes the wagon look very intimadating. g@ttigangTrue it does look badass on CJ's wagon but I don't know how the smaller spokes on the volans will look.Screw it, only one way to find out.I could always go ricer and do 'em white :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthricite is always baller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Just curious, why don't you save the money from painting the volans and use it towards new tires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRACStar Posted August 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Just curious, why don't you save the money from painting the volans and use it towards new tires?because it is not expensive to repaint the wheels if you do it yourself.filling in scratches, prep, and paint for all 4 wheels= maybe $50( If i change my mind about colors alot)4 New tires- installed and ballanced= $500see my point.that and Im bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trunks850R Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Just curious, why don't you save the money from painting the volans and use it towards new tires?yeah that kinda makes sence, but i have to say a black car with black wheels, of course unless youve got achrome/silver lip, then black wheels loook like steelies going down the road.IMHO, black car=slver wheels. white car= black wheels(chrome lip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't mind doing some degree of refinishing work after you get tires, then go for it.Without curing the finish (or alternately using some sort of powdercoat), the paint will not stick to the aluminum like the OEM paint.
