FYI: To everyone who has or will paint their wheels on their tires the easiest way to "mask" off the tire is to use 3X5 cards and simply stand them up in between the edge of the wheels and the tire itself. And for the valve stems just just vaseline.

The wheels look good, but if you are not going to take the time to paint the center caps it will look cheesy. Nobody ever paints the center caps on this forum.

White '04-'05 wheels on the new Laguna Blue Pearl would be awesome.

Personally I don't like white on white. Too much white. White w/ bronze would look sick tho. But it has to be a dark bronze, like the TE37 bronze.

Don't do it Jose. I'd go with bronze or gunmetal. Are you going to get a CF hood?

LOL

There is some one with white wheels on a GPW S2K that has white center caps with red H's. That looked pretty hot.

i painted my friend dan's car's (04 GPW) wheels white, and they look nice! kinda like the NSX-R theme. White on white definitely looks good, especially with red calipers that will match the seats!

And for the center cap... no center cap! I'm gonna do the no center cap/ open ended/tuner lugs for now
