white wheel

does anyone have a picture of an original 80 wheel painted white?

I'm considering painting the wheels, and I have found an abundance of black wheel pictures/examples but no white.

I am sure you can do little photochop or someone can do it for you here. What color is your LX?

white under black (It's black, right?) would probably look cool.

I'm in the black wheel gang as of yesterday, I like the contrast. your idea may be similar but opposite; I assume you will go with white lettering out as well?

yea, white lettering out.

I remember seeing a picture of a white LC, with white wheels, awhile back.

I think it would be interesting to see Black on White tho.

It might be a good idea to paint the flares and body cladding to black like Sanchez.

I think white wheels will look good on only white trucks, but that is just my opinion.

i tried finding some, but i think most of the stock white steelies are on the older 70's and 40's... so here's some for your viewing pleasure anyway.











i think they're all the same rim.

White looks great when it's clean, but it's never clean. I had them on an old car and the brake dust drove me nuts!

Looks like an Outer Banks action shot, I'm heading down there this weekend!

I'm thinking it would look better if the white lettering would be on the inside

I saw a pic of stock wheels painted white the other day on here, but cant find the thread now. I wasnt a fan, but I am not a huge fan of the black wheels either. Maybe its b/c I am a 60 series guy at heart and have always like the look of stock 80 series rims. The greay or hammered colors look better IMHO.
