hello everyone,

I am thinking to paint my MK5 rims, I did not like the stock color. at the same time I am planning to get new set of rims (GOLD), but I will be participation in a "time attack" GP circuit next weekend.

my supra is white, so should I paint them in black, or gold ?

Hi, What colour did you end up going for?
I'm keen to see what a white supra with gold stock rims looks like!

I am actually about to plastic dip the stock wheels gold to see how they will look until I actually save enough up for new wheels. Will post pics later this week

Are you unmounting the wheels or leaving the tires installed?

leaving the tire installed and will just tape around the edge where the tire and wheel are and just remove the whole tire from the car before painting.

I have Plasti -dipped wheels on several different cars and it works quite well. It's cheap, convenient and you can change colors any time you want. They have a coating you wipe onto the tire that prevents it from sticking so you don't need to mask it.
