Default Any sandstone owners paint their wheels body color?

I was looking through some pictures of SC's, and saw quite a few white ones with white wheels, silver cars with silver wheels, and of course black cars with black wheels.
It got me thinking that sandstone wheels on a sandstone car might look pretty clean and be unique as well.
Has anyone done this, and if so, do you have any pics?

I am having some wheels re-finished soon, and I am considering doing a brushed lip with a sandstone center section.

You should go to the photoshop forum and ask someone to do it for you. What wheels anyways?

I have three sets; Work VS-KF, Fabulous Profound, and iForged Astras.
I am thinking I will use the Profounds on the SC.

I've seen this done on the Sandstone SC's and it doesn't look good. Generally black, chrome, gunmetal, or silver wheels will look good on a Sandstone SC. It will vary with the style of wheel, but those are a safe bet.

No, no... the question was 'any sandstone owners paint their wheels body color', not 'When was the last time you got laid?



Joking aside, got any pics?
I don't mod any of my cars based on the latest trends. I just do whatever I think looks good, and sometimes my choices just happen to end up being 'old school' or 'played out' according to what all the cool kids are doing.
