09 Rays What should i do with them?

Duc_Z09

I'll be sanding the curb rash out of my wheels and re-painting (color still undecided) soon. IMO to do it right you really should take the tires off, which in my case is happening anyway since I've got new ones to put on.

Then again, not everyone has access to a mounting and balancing machine like I do, or needs to swap out tires anyway.

PS: The stock wheels on these cars absolutely rock compared to most.

Apparently the previous owner did. Both sides.

Oh well, it gives me an excuse to play. Color suggestions? (anything in the black to silver range; I'm not a fan of neon or color-matching)

yah, some people are 'okay' with curb rashes as if it is part of a wheels' life. sure, maybe on a beater, but not on my Z

i'd do metallics..gunmetal, anthracite, or graphite.

Duc_Z09

I like all of those. If I had a red or white Z I'd be doing graphite in a second. Since I've got Magnetic Black I'm leaning toward keeping the stock bright silver and overlaying it with a smoked clear that wouldn't be very noticeable from straight-on, but would look progressively darker with more angle as you walk around it...
