Very happy today found some evo 9 17 inch enkies sitting outside bob jane in southport little bit of gutter rash on 1 which doesnt bother me because im going to paint them.Anyway he wanted 400 but i paid 270 and got him to get rid off the dead rubber and clean them and even boxed them up for me so im happy with the deal and surprised how light they are. so does anyone have an idea what colour i should paint them I have a silver leggie and im thinking gunmetal grey but im open to suggestions cheers

That's an incredible deal u got there. E9 rims can go from $700-$1000 for a set. Well if u wanna go with smth stealthy then gun metal is a good bet. If u want smth out there - orange. :)

I was going to say Orange :) what colour is your car? If its white orange or lime green could look cool. Looks even better on bigger rims with good offsets and good fitment.

Exhibit 1 Orange:

Hahaha, orange wheels with pearl white paint and green Brembos, hmmmm... :p

I'd be more incline to paint them green if I were going to paint them :D

I don't think the Evo IX rims have got enough shape/offset to warrant a real bright colour to be honest! I'd be angling for a dark silver/gunmetal/charcoal type

Hahaha, I like the hyper black but if I get to the point where I want to paint them I'm sure it'll be Green :)

^ What he said! Personally I wouldn't paint my bonnet, and the pearl white isn't the cheapest colour to go back to if you want to turn it around... But photoshop it and see.
