Alrighty so i'm usually pretty good at matching rims to cars... but this one I need help on.

The problem is the car is purple. What colors iyo would look best on a purple car, but we don't want gunmetal or black. And it's a 1997 Civic hatch. I said white, but other then that, what do you think?

Thanks :) :clap:

I've always liked gold or bronze on darker or bold colors... I've seen a purple civic hatch on gold wheels and I thought it was hot... here are a few pics (none of the civic, but of the color combo)...

ahha is this for derek's car?

purple is not a common color and that is why it is a bit harder to work with because it is harder to imagine

this is what i say:

All white:

Dark (all bronze or black):

all in all i think with a color like that you will have to go with a simple look because it is already a but gay to start with. all those collors would look good, you just need to know what he wants...also, going with a different style of rim than what he has right now would be better aswell :thumbsup:

Don't hate on pink. I'd rock pink wheels if I had a pink car, seriously. :D

:werd: white or gold, gold/bronze stands out really well - and the white would look deadly with accenting purple lug nuts / lettering on the rims or something, like that red accented white wheeled 'teg.
