: Smoke Armada w/ chrome or black
abstrakt51 01-27-2006, 05:55 PM Hello all,
I'm an owner of a smoke Armada and was planning on going chrome as far as rims but was also considering black w/ polished lip. I saw a smoked Titan on some KMC Backseats and it looked pretty smooth, but he also had a nice drop on it. Any feedback or pictures of Madas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Doc91 01-27-2006, 08:19 PM go with the black wheels so it'll be original.

Thanks for all your feedback guys. I was going to go w/ the black on smoke but I'm not sure if the "JDM" look will look right on the Mada. I would hate to invest in some rims and not be happy w/ the way they look but anyways...the Titan below looks hot as hell IMO.
92TripleBlack 01-30-2006, 02:30 PM I like chrome as long as you aren't at the beach or in a snow zone. Black is better in salt. Both would work. Also, it depends on what else you can do. You don't want to "over bling" it. ;)
ockevin 01-30-2006, 03:32 PM I would love to see a chrome rim with a smoke painted face of the rim. I think that would be original. Need to find a body shop to paint them and put on lots of clear coat to protect the rim from the elements.

When I click on the link, it shows the Elanor mustang, with the smoke paint, smoke/chrome wheels with chrome rims and smoke hubs. ;)
ockevin 01-30-2006, 03:51 PM It worked now, needed to wait a little longer...That car is sweet and the rims look good.

I was going to go with black rims and a polished lip on mine but some times they make the rims smaller then they are. They will both look good though, my friend has black on's on a black Mada.

In all honesty for that brand of rim that isnt bad... I like those rims those will look tite on a smoked Armada
ChuckD 01-31-2006, 03:17 AM Other peoples black cars always look great.. if the black car is yours then you notice all the imperfections in the paint.
My suggestion... get Smoke. It's a very classy color.

Yeah, Asanti makes some nice rims but expensive. HREs are also clean looking but would leave a huge hole in my bank account.
Anybody know a reputable place in SoCal that powerdercoats rims? I would be willing to also give them some left over Moon Cake from the Chinese New Years. :D

I think the black on smoke looks tight! Go with what ya like! I have a smoke color one, but I'm not there on the rims yet.
