opinion needed, borbet type b content

[Mike]

OK, I have a late body zinnoberrot coupe, worked over with worthy mods, GC's, etc... I also have a set of Borbet type B 16x9 with a serious dish, which are currently gunmetal. I am having my wheel guy refinish the wheels, but I can't decide what color to use.

He voted to paint the spokes black, and is willing to polish the lips.

I vote black spokes, with body matched zinnoberrot lips.

Or,
-zinno spokes with black lips
-zinno spokes with polished lips
-completely yellow gold
-yellow gold spokes with polished lips
-completely white

Here's a few example threads:

This thread needs a poll also.

Im jealous, I love these wheels, still on my wheel wish list.

I also have an early model zinno coupe too, so maybe I will mount on both cars, but the early model build is just starting to break ground, esp. with its monster truck stock suspension.

All white.

Yeah, I'm a fan of white wheels too, especially when you protect the finish by running dustless brake pads! I shoulda made this thread a poll, I was just too focused on digging up links to old threads.

Poll added for easy voting!

Black with polish lips.

[E30SPDFRK]

Don't color match flat lips. It almost never looks good and almost always looks ricey.

I voted black with polished lip, but I may be a little biased ;)
