A mate of mine thinks they will look s**t, he reckons white wheels only suite blue cars :S. I personally think they will look great especially with my red brembo 4pots behind :evil:

Personally dont like the white and silver combo, theres not enough contrast.

 

[chrispy.clio]

Black would look better imo

:dead: Sorry but I think black wheels look gash! Alloys that look like steelies FTL!

 

[maynard]

imo not, anthracite would be a better choice as you don't like black!

yeh, that could be an option. Only prob is I dont think the place doing them can powdercoat that colour. Not for the price im paying anyway!

What about this colour?

Hi5

 

[Peperami]

Gloss black looks fantastic with grey. They really really dont suit it in white.

Im oot.

 

[clio_luke]

matte black for me on that.

 

[meady100]

Flat colours just do not go with metallics IMO

 

[Paddy_g46]

What are the opinions the on BMW wheels above then? Would that colour look good with the slight sparkle in it.

 

[Nick172Cup]

If you were going to go for a silver it would have to be really really shiny, almost polished to look good. The paint on them BMW wheels looks a bit chavvy, almost like they've put glitter in it. Still think white looks the best, black and anthracite just makes the car look dull.

black, with crazy colour caps

No, Silver!! I should have never sold my willy wheels. Big mistake!

 

[Paddy_g46]

Hmm, that does look nice! I was just so set on white, but at the same time I dont want to do them white if everyone else thinks they look shat!

 

[Nick172Cup]

Just like that! Dans wheels would look spot on!

 

[Paddy_g46]

Yeh i agree they look nice, i was just thinking that i wanted something "different". Might go with silver after all...

 

[Peperami]

Perfect. This or black.

 

[jdh91]

white works but the silver looks much better.

 

[Paddy_g46]

Silver it is then!

 

[Renault Davey Boy]

they would look nice in a grey just darker than the car or maybe a shade lighter photo shop both and have a look

 

[mat-nos]

mat black gets my vote.....

Right im off to the powdercoaters. What colou would you say the above wheels are? Greyish silver or just silver?

 

[Paddy_g46]

Just dropped them off and picked out a colout that was on another wheel, was called flat silver 7201 of something like that, looks like this and has no "glitter":

but im half tempted ot rign up and ask them to use a colout with a small bit fo glitter that reacts to light, something like this:

What do you guys/girls reckon?



(Sorry iv i keep posting about colours, I just want to be sure!)

 

[Paddy_g46]

Anyone?

 

[Bluebeard]

Mine were ''high power silver''.

No idea if thats any use to you.

(Can you post that pic of you drunk again??)

I showed the pic of your car to the guy and he said its hard to get a very shiny finish with powdercoat because of the overcoat. Up close how shiny/dull were they? I went for a sort of standard BMW silver look I think :S
