My wheels had some major curb rash on all 4 and some corrosion-looking **** on them. Anyways I've started the sanding process, but these are the wheels:

and my car is a white 2002 v6 coupe (obviously accord).


Should I just polish? Paint silver? Black? White? :skurred:


edit: the picture isn't of my actual wheels. its one i found on the net just to show the style of them.

You could get a photo of your car and put it in the wheel change thread as a request. Then someone with PS skills will change it...

Just an idea

OEM 6GA wheels painted anything else usually end up looking kind of trashy.

I had bad road rash and wanted to see what mine looked like without commitment so I used some black plastidip.
No sanding so the finish isn't ruined, just clean, put index cards between the lip and tire, and spray. If you don't like it peels off and you can get it in a few different colors.
I recommend that before a regular rattle can.

If you can get all the wheels looking like the one in the pic, I would say your fine.

No need to change the colour though. Stick with OEM or polish.
