ha id like it to be a bit different but anthracite is tried and tested really isnt it!

 

[drummie]

I say go for a very light anthracite colour. Couple of shades darker than your bodywork.

 

[theduck]

Anthracite or black with coloured lip

I dropped them off Saturday and he rang on Monday to come and pick them up.

[maynard]

oh good, did you think they did a good job?

what did you have done then?

 

[typefern]

Exactly the same as you:

4 x Speedline Turinis in Charcoal Anthraicite.

Pretty chuffed with the finish considering the cost, Ive had in the past a crappy spray job on a scratched alloy for the same price Lap Tab re-furbed a whole wheel.

Would recommend to other people.

[maynard]

sound, matching wheels! dont say your cars iceberg because that would just be weird!

its the second set ive had done - cant fault them. as you say must recommend.

 

[typefern]

No mate,

There going on a pearl black 172.

I was little unsure which to go for white, high finish silver but I'm glad I went for the charcoal/anthracite finish.

Just need to get them on the Clio.

 

[Gaz]

anthracite all the way seen a few ice bergs with them on and it looks smart

 

[maynard]

yep it does look good, mines a little darker then what ive seen most peoples but i think its great.

typefern - when you putting them on?

 

[typefern]

Some time this week, I have two used,but state of the art tyre fitting machines at my disposal, so its more down to me.

Hopeing to paint my calipers silver to offset the wheels.

 

[maynard]

silver calipers would look good me thinks. ah thats good then - ive gotta pay kwik fit on saturday morning to change my tyres!

 

[typefern]

Make sure they see your alloys are perfect and get them to agree to cover costs if damaged.

 

[Turner]

i had mine done at laptab a while back only just fitted them mind,charcoal 172 wheels and the colour is great especially after polishing them and a few coats of wax they look like there drippin wet tbh
