Paint or powder coat. If you paint them, expect to paint them again soon, especially during winter. I'm get 16" 6 spokes soon too (but they're a little deeper then those), I was afraid they'd look too small for the wheel wells, but they look pretty good, not afraid anymore, lol.

Yor car looks really good as it is. I wouldn't paint them, personally. Is that a 1993?

thanks for the replies . to answer a few questions. yeah, the car is a 93'. and yeah , the car is dropped on Tein S-tech's. the 16's are good for me. had 17's on before.... didn't like the idea of dodging every pothole ahead of me.

I like 17"s, I don't like 30mm spacers though, lol. I'd rather spend $500 on performance then on a 5 lug conversion. The 16"s (+15)are just fine for me though. Maybe later I'll go 5 lugh, but the 16"s will do for now.

Wow nice picture. Just leave the rims the way they are and your car is still hot.
