Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior For Carbon Blue Celicas, What color rims does my car match?

goddamn...the carbon blue celica is a bitch to find rims that match...i musta been on like 20 sites looking for some rims today. what rims do you think look best on a carbon blue celi? i was maybe thinkin gunmetal...or some phatty chrome rims. in 17s or 18...i want to find a rim that would complement the carbon blue color and make it stand out as well. thx 4 helpin shinobi out. peace

my choice gunmetal w/ polish lip, as you can see
silver was to bright for the car and hyperblack was too dark for blue

i like your head lights where did you get em? mine are all fogged up

I'll be getting gunmetal... polished lips are not my style, a bit played out

i'm gettin GM

I GOT gunmetal with polished lip...They shipped today

well these are the Rims I want to get for my Carbon Blue Celica... I think Gunmetal is the way to go...you can also choose if you want a mirror lip...

Tenzo Passion 5 gunmetal...with mirror lip

i got silver with a polished lip on mine...sorry guys i think the gunmetal gray clashes with carbon blue ...just my opinion...maybe im just picky

gunmetal or black..both with polished lips

yea def gunmental with polished lip

honestly, after seeing the Sport Compact project celica with the bronze rims on it, i kinda like that look. Right now i have chrome, which looks good, and when i get my lightweight rims (probably Volks ce-37's) i will either get bronze or G/M.

I went to this page...

And search for "Carbon" for car color...

bronze looks very sick on CB

now that i think of it bling bling chrome is on carbon blue..ughh...the celica with the blitz does not look right with those rims imo

anyways...so whats up with the new mirror lip thing? same as a POLISHED LIP? or more bling? does it stand out more?

have gm w/ polished lip looks good w/ a carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber acccents, but i kinda wish i went with bronze

those r sicc...ok, i made up my mind, imma have to go with 17s becuz a 17y/o cannot afford 18s (lol especialy when there unemployed) if i got 17s how low should i drop em would a trd springs be good wit it?.. and lets say i have a veilside kit...
