What color should I powder coat my track rims?

Putting this here as looking for something different. Rims would only be used on track. Any suggestions on a BSM F80? They are stock 437m rims but want them different than the stock colors.

I think an anodized gold or a copper look could be cool on that black...

Maybe steel gray or matte black...something that brake dust doesn't look bad on? Bright silver or gold?

I’ve heard some track acquaintances having issues cracking powder coated wheels.

I guess if you’re powder coated already you’re good with the process.

I’ve been a fan of bronze wheels on black car

Since it’s a track wheel, you should stand out! Neon yellow, green or pink! Maybe babyblue!! Just make sure to clean them before you go haha. Also the fruitier the color, the better driver you must be.
