Jab83 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I'm all for being diff. But come on.. first off. your painting stockers so it'll be diff no matter what color you put on it not many people paint or even keep stock rims. I thought about throwing some of the subie gold On the back of my rims so you could kind of see it when you look at em. Thought it might be cool. but didn't have the money to try it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grouch Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Maybe a fluorescent orange it is then. They are WINTER wheels, so it's something fun, not something to show off in. My car is dented, scratched, has rust spots covered with electrical tape already. It's hard being a poor college student who loves cars. (If it was a BMW, or an Audi....I'd keep it classy. But it's not) Horrible excuse. You are embarrassing me homie. I am a very poor college student currently putting myself through a Masters program and I too wanted to CLEAN up my car. However, regardless, there is a RIGHT way and a WRONG way to do things. There are classy upgrades, and then there are....basically what you're trying to do. That's why I went the poor college student route (i.e. Rotas, wrx brake upgrade, sways, bushings, endlinks). All I care about is handling/brakes. I can't afford anything regarding aesthetics, so I don't do any body work on car. Simple. I really don't understand your logic that just because your car is all dinged up already that makes it okay to just completely ruin the car. You going for matching neon lights under the car too?

lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 poor graduate student lulz. neon, no. not a fan. i just wanted wheels that were a very different color. i guess some of yall think if its something you dont like, its wrong. id say doing suspension, brakes, engine swaps...particularly turbo ones....getting sponsrships, doing jdm upgrades all on a street car that maybe sees a track a few times a year are all ricer as well. but, i opted not to jump on the hatin bandwagon. but, to each there own. its just annoying being called a ricer by a bunch of cirlejerking hypocritical ricers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worknlikeadog Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Why would you even ask what we thought you should paint your wheels if your just going to be different. It just stupid and a waste of time to paint wheels a color to make them worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 besides, how often do your cars see dirt, mud, gravel, snow. im not trying to win a beauty competition. i drive a 90s subaru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jab83 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 and thats the best looking year for subarus i think... SO take care of the dang car geez!! you sound like my friend who has no respect for cars. unless its like a brand new car or classic. ITs a sweet car. treat it right. And i guess, we kinda are ricers. but we dont do Body kits and stuff so its not as bad. lol. but for really even ricers willl poke fun at you for painting your wheels blue.

lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 and if you think having an odd colored set of wheels ruins a car, your opinion means absolutely nothing to me when it comes to cars. i bought this car barely running and have got it running like a champ with help mostly from here. i asked about peoples color opinions because i thought there would be some variety other than matte, gloss, or chrome black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated broknindarkagain Posted September 9, 2011 I Donated Share Posted September 9, 2011 You wanted opinions, so everyone is giving you opinions. Painting your wheels obnoxious colors just screams "I'm a douche bag and I want everyone to stare at me because I think I'm cool!" What you want to do to your wheels is just going to be ugly. If you don't like the opinions people give you and want to bitch about them, then gtfo and go ask about tasteless mods here And to ease your curiosity, my sedan sees SEVERAL track days a year. My OB sees trails several times a week. Want to know what would be different but look good on your car? White rims / red brakes Black rims / red brakes black rims / white brakes white rims / white brakes white rims / red brakes / red lip white spokes with black inserts alloy rims Your car would look REALLY nice if you had dark tinted windows, tinted lights, and gloss black wheels....and red brakes -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 sorry for calling you guys ricers but seriously just a i dont think that would look good would work. no need to degrade a person for having an opposing opinion on color of wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jab83 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 OK i understand wanting diff. But blue?? or pink?? come on man come up with something better then that.. lol. .... bronze ??? it can look pretty sweet. Uh.... white??? lol. idk. just blue and pink are crazy. wouldn't even go with the car. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 ive decided orange lol. i just wanted something very high contrast between snow and the white of the body of my car. and ive officially made myself a lulzcow. opinions were fine, i just dont enjoy being belittled as a person due to my own personal taste in wheel color.

Yes you can. Go to Autozone and buy brake caliper paint or high temp spray paint in whatever color you want to do. make sure you clean your brakes REALLY good before you start to paint though. I find that you get a better paint job if you take the calipers off the car to do them. -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

Jab83 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 LOL. omg no neon colors. THat would look horrible!! Hey I wonder what i mildly dark red would look like. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulzcow Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 ya know, that was a very well received post there. in contrast with those cars white paint.....i see what you did thar, btw.........it does look pretty shitty. wish ida seen those all towards the beginning of this thread. but i still dont want something so vanilla, neither. will def have to do the calipers black to match decently with whatever color the wheels end up. gracias.

You think I like telling people I'm poor? I am a poor graduate student. I get a lot of help from financial aid (basically welfare for students), and work my ass off. Basically, school and work have me prisoner, I have zero free time, but I don't take my frustrations out on my car. Sorry bro, didn't mean to hate on you, but a ricer would put on body kits even as his car is about to break down, mechanically. YOU sound like you were on the right track, saving up to fix the car first so that it runs well before working on aesthetics. So...why would you pick such a hideous, loud color for rims? Look, you're right. You are free to do whatever you want to YOUR car. It's your car afterall. However...I don't think we can begin DISCUSSING color options for your rims if we don't even see eye-to-eye on what a 'ricer' is. That much is obvious. So...in summary: do you like getting handjobs? (yes) you like giving handjobs? (no). Well then you're a damn hipocriticizer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
