I just put some 98 gsx rims on my talon and I am still usure if I should powder coat them black or leave them so I am going to ask what your opinions are

I think it looks fine as it is. Is your car lowered at all?

Leave them the way they are, and get the car painted instead.

My girlfriend thinks the same thing, to keep them the way they are and work on the paint job.

Yes get a paint job!! I know I shouldn't have any say because I need mine painted but I think the rims look good the way they are for the moment.

Its hard to find 2gb gsx rims in good shape...

I say leave them the way they are and spend the money on other fun things.

well my car is now smoking pretty bad. lots of blue smoke out the tail pipe. I think it's time to rebuild my block so that's where my money is going to be going. I just rebuilt my cylinder head and my turbo is newer so I don't think it's the turbo.

There you go. Spend the dough on the stuff that makes it go and worry about wheels later.

If that wouldnt have happened I wold say work on the paint too. The wheels look pretty good as they are.
