This is the wheel I'd like to put on my P5, what do you think?

 

Shasta .. laser blue + bronze rims = teh sex!!!

End of story

 

damn....i miss my womper. I needed some nice tint like that.

 

Well I don't want to go Subie so thats why I opted for the black rims.

 

we all do. do you have any vids?

Shasta.. black or gunmetal would look awesome on your car, though I can't see the rim in question because it must be hosted on a common photo hosting site (blocked at work)

 

^ You can't see my picture? Just a second then. They are hosted on Imagecave.

 

I see it now. it'll look amazing with gunmetal, charcoal, or black wheels. I like how the headlights, tint, and wheels tie in so well that's why I did dark wheels myself

 

Yeah kinda of a subtle theme, yeah I'd like to send out the emblems and have them powder coated in gloss black then the exhaust with a black ceramic coat as well.

 

black badges are a nice touch as well (something I also have done right now :P)

keep the '5' on the Protege5 red though, looks cool (I have a '323' badge so no 5 for me )

 

Yeah I most likely will be getting some paint work done next year when I get the wheels so thats when I might send everything out to be coated.

I want to keep it clean and try not to add to many things, so those carbon fiber winglets I bought might not even be installed.

 

Those rims aren't too bad, but be careful: dark colored rims are easily overwhelmed by that bright paint. They can kind of disappear.

 

my paint is 'bright'.. not exciting bright, but sunlight silver bright.. you just gotta make sure your wheels are shiny. mine look like crap after driving for a long time in the rain because they just look dull.

 

Shiny helps! So do your silver rings.

 

I think lighter tones on rims make them 'pop' more, since they are surrounded by a black tire already. No one can miss my rims:
