I have used photoshop to modify the color/look of this Nevis wheel. I am considering having my Nevis wheels painted like this, with the black portion the same color as my car's paint - ultimate black. I did not know how to mimic the tiny metal flake of the paint, so it's just black.

Positive or negative opinions are welcomed. I realize wheels are highly personal, but I am genuinely interested in some feedback, not counting the mistake I made on one spoke...but you get the "picture".

I have attached a photo and linked to a larger version a well...

Good idea and nice photoshop. The best way to consider is to photoshop the change to a picture of a profile shot of a car with the Nevis wheels.

I actually considered powder coating the entire wheel matte black with the very edge still silver like MB does on factory MB wheels. Can you pull that off and use this profile shot?

 

Will try...back in a few

 

This wheel is somewhat like Nevis...

Really cool look. I would go for it. They will be the only wheels like it out there.

 

I like the two tone idea in your original picture. It could look stock since it is OEM wheel.

 

I think this will look fantastic

 

Ok, so shop'd it onto one of the pics...this took some time but it looks good to me. Also I fixed the spoke...

Nice. I actually meant the entire center of the wheel including spokes black. Just a half inch or less of the lip is still silver. This might also be easier to photoshop.

 

The opposite of what was done in rscultho's picture? That would look neat too!

 

I like it. Looks unique and shows off well.

Hmmm...well, that would certainly be easier to paint. But I like the spokes flat areas to be silver.

I am going to do this. Now I just need to find someone that can paint them like I have pictured...

 

Found a pic of a local shop's work with a set of Nevis wheels. Remembered this thread. Now posting said pic herein. Cheers!

Wow, that all black with the red center looks kinda nice. Wonder how it would look on a black car? Matte is a good choice.

 

that color combo is sexy on that wheel!

 

I think it would look good go for it
