Specifically, I can't figure out what color goes best with that excellent deep, dark green. The green itself changes in so many lights. What color rims would match that best?

Some flavor of gold = bronze, copper, matte, shiny..
or a silver finish like titanium, gunmetal, gray, or even white.

Black works, but its not the best compliment.

Anyone have any aftermarket wheels in a great color for guard?? :cheers:

I prefer stealth. I think black is perfect and with 668HP to the rear wheels I would rather they not see it coming.

I'm in the same boat OP. I have a Guard GTPP and I love it. I got some brushed titanium wheels right now but looking to get a different set (MRR 600).
A lot of stock colors are either bronze (Which I'm not the biggest fan of...) Silver or Black.

Stance SC-1's in brushed titanium




Stock nickel wheels (for sale). Very similar to silver.


I am doing a carbon fiber overhaul right now so black could work but seems very common. Silver would provide some contrast but I guess I'm indifferent
to them at the moment. I have even contemplated a set of Black stripes w/Silver pinstripes but that might be a lot with all the CF.

Maybe gunmetal might be my thing...I like the stealthy look. Open to thoughts.

I feel like everyone goes with black or darker colors.

My thought? The Guard color is a very nice "mature" and "classy" color. So I felt that instead of making it look aggressive, I would go with that theme.

So I went with Hyper Silver Roush wheels, I like that they aren't too crazy and look pretty clean and simple. People have said it has a nice, "OEM Plus" look.

Looks great! Always been a fan of your wheel choice.
Thanks! A mild drop would set it off, but I am always hesitant about major changes, I feel like whenever I modify a part of a car, I always introduce a new issue :shrug:

I remember you mentioning the mod thing in the past. I almost got a set of Rousch wheels but 2 exact same cars in a small area like the bay wouldn't work.

FYI, there's a kids cars n coffee event at the shelby museum in Martinez tomorrow. Museum admission is free to the cars n coffee entrants.

If you got Roush wheels I might have been inspired by seeing your Mustang with the BMR springs and decided to just bite the bullet on lowering it!

Family day tomorrow, but I might check out Cars and Croissants next weekend in San Jose!

I think black looks great but I do wish that I had gone with bronze.
