Colored Rims - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #1888 22 posts Started by Inferno
Yes. Some of you probably know that my color scheme for my car (when I get it) will be black and red. I'm looking for red colored/chrome rims/wheels. Does anyone know anything about these? Does any company make red ones or do I have to get them custom dipped?
Is the car red? I think if you got red wheels on a red body that would seriously look tacky.
No. The car will be black. The accents will be red.

ewwww, i saw a red pt cruiser today with like 13" red wheels....bleh
Totally. I agree with the red on red....but, the car will be black. :-P >rolleyes.gif>
there is a C-one motorsports body kit on a gt4 in the catalog of some jap website and the gt4 is black and his black rims with red around them..someone has to have this pic saved somewhere..i can't find it tho, looked realll good
You want the trim to be red or you just want it HMC red finished

=(
Red rims or red trim would look sweet. Either one is good. Do you think it's possible to buy silver rims because they are cheeper than chrome and just get them dipped in red chrome?
Bump. This is kind of important, guys.
This is not important enough to get bumped.
Sure people like the opinions of others when making decisions, but if you can't decide without everyone's decision then it's not your idea and you shouldn't do it to your car cause you might not like the results later on.
Dude, did you read that post at ALL!?!?! I wasn't asking for an opinion at all. I was asking if anyone knew any company that MADE them. Dang. >mad.gif>

I really, really like those rims and that car. The rims look like Volk Racing GT-C rims(which are very expensive unfortunately), but I'm not sure.

By the way, do you have a photo of red chrome wheels? I don't think I've ever seen them before. And I think it's probably worth it just to buy the rims you want in the first place, rather than buying a silver version and getting them chromed(is that a word? >biggrin.gif>). They'll probably look more professional, but it all depends on how good the shop is that paints them for you.

Those rims look sweet. Yeah, I thought I had seen some red rims in a catalog once. But those trimmed wheels look excellent as well. Does anyone know where they can be bought at? Also, thanks tons for the pic, Coomer. Highly appreciated!
AB Flug makes dual tri-spokes with one of the sets being either Champagne, Red, Blue, or Black

I think they're like $600 per wheel though
last i saw them, they were on TakaKaira.com

Now that you say that, I remember seeing some Advan red rims on a Silvia I believe. Here are some red rims:

The RA3 are my choice but to damn exspensive.

=(
I am chrushin' on all three of those rims. 'Specially the Advan RC's. Once again, Coomer comes through with some top notch info. Word.
After looking for the RC's, I found a JDM Used Wheels Trading Post. This stuff is suh-weet! Here's the link: JDM Wheel Trading Post. I'm telling you one thing, that if I were to ever get Silver wheels...take a peek at those ADVAN Supers. Word.
