My new wheels arrived yesterday, courtesy of Henrik, aka "maxed up" (good guy, smooth transction). 17x7.5 Kosei K1's in white. They were discountinued in 17inch so a set in white was all I could get. When I orginally ordered I figured I would get them powdercoated some type of silver. Now that I saw them in person, I really like the white. I think they would look great with the Neptune Blue.

Anyone have pics of white wheels on a blue car?

Here is a pic my friend photochopped...

all opinions welcome...

 

 

I think the photochop looks great You should keep the wheels white, but then again, I bought my car because it came with white wheels. I wish I could get the Kosei's in my bolt pattern.

 

 

keep the white for now. then one day when they chip or get scuffed you can go and powder coated a different color. thats my .02

have you seen my new ASAs? haven't seen you around in a while. borbets are gone now, went on ebay. so far so good with the ASAs and Dunlops. no more bends=good

I agree with keeping them the way they are for now. Save the money for the MEVI
I think the white would look good with blue. Get tires and find out

 

Hey Mitch

There was a member here named ScreaminFast with white wheels on a blue max. Search for him, and his pics. I personally liked it.

Good luck in your decision.

 

I have white wheels but on a white max. Looks real good but gets really dirty real fast. Good luck keeping them clean. I dont mind being ricey even alot of org members hate it to the stomach. white rims look good on a blue car.

 

May definately not look bad.

However, that photoshop makes those babies look like 18s they will look a tiny bit smaller but may mach nicely.

Great wheels by the way.

 

Personally, I think it looks good (and I'm usually very conservative). Try it for awhile, and if you don't like it, you can change them later. BTW, in the photochop, the front wheel should have the caliper towards the front of the car (just nit-picking. I can never get a photochop to look decent). Also, I would definately get several good coats of wax on them to make cleaning easier later. Keeping them clean would be the only downside I can see.

I've got those same exact rims on my car.



More pics on my homepage...
Go for them.

 

I came across your pics back when I was researching these rims a while back. In that photoshopped pic, the rims were from one of your pics...

Thanks for the replies, I'm gonna keep them white for at least this spring/summer...

Leave them white... it should look very nice on a blue car.
