Getting wheels powder coated, What color should I get? #82328 Jan 14, 6:40am Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 359 Columbus, Indiana skdmorse Member 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 skdmorse Member 2002 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 359 Columbus, Indiana Here is a pic of my current wheels on my car. Since this picture was taken the car has been lowered, I have removed the white decals on the side and my VIS Invader hood will be here soon. What color should I have my wheels changed to, I was thinking black or blue. What do you all think????
