Check that out. I would probably say no, as I think silver would be best for BCP in terms of wheels. Im not a fan of dark wheels myself, and think it would be too sporty looking since the xB already isnt a true VIP platform. That would be 2 strikes against it IMHO.

Re: Color Match!!!!

i really like when people color match wheels personally. I think it ties in everything together and makes it look like the wheels were meant to be on teh car

Why does everybody ask, "Would ____ be considered VIP?" Who cares! There are no rules to VIP. Just focus on your stance and making your car really nice. Make your decision based on the big picture: Does it work with the whole car? By doing such and such, does it truly add to the overall appeal of the car? Don't neccessarily make changes just to make changes. Make fewer mods that count a lot more.

Now that I got that out of my system..lol. IMO, it won't look DUB as long as your stance and fitment is awesome to begin with! Because if your stance is just so-so, then color-matching your wheels would just be highlighting it's so-so-ness. Anyhow, I have no problem with color matching, esp. since BCP is a pretty classy color to begin with, just don't go overboard with the lookatmeeverythingmatches mentality :buck2: (i.e clor matched interior, headlights, tails, etc. too).

BTW, how easy/hard is it to color macth your wheels? Will it be powder coated?

Re: Color Match!!!!

its your car, your wheels and its your money.
if you dont have a mind of your own on what looks good and what doesn't look good, i guess you have trouble dressing up for special formal event.
is your next question "should i make my own fusa?"

Re: Color Match!!!!

If you can get your stance to look as good as that Previa, I think any color would work :D

Re: Color Match!!!!

any color other then dark colors on wheels maybe too flashy...and think of the resale values if ever you plan to sell them. You limit the market by painting them, if its not a common color. black, silver, chrome and maybe gunmetal finish are what i would prefer to stick to..keeps you on the safe side from pushing out to a different genre..but ive done custom painted wheels and they look sic...but took a loss when i had to sell em.... ;)
