White wheels, YES or NO!!!!

[N90 ACK]

I have some 172 alloys and want to get them done in white, they are for a black clio. What does everyone think?

Cheers

[sting]

Would look awesome but will be a nightmare to keep clean. Do it.

 

[Ben.]

definately looks good, if you can be bothered to keep them clean

 

[Lewis_S]

[Turkish]

Pain in the sack to keep clean, I know from experience.

 

[BioHzrd]

Would look mint but youll be cleaning them every day !

 

[N90 ACK]

As long as they look good i don't mind the cleaning, and thanks all for the quick responses

 

[Marky_]

Should be quite good.

 

[.GAZ.]

im doing the same mate!! check Bloooor's car not a 172 but looks sweet!!

 

[drhowser]

something like this:approve:

 

[N90 ACK]

Yeah i've had a look, think it looks really good

 

[Merk]

my STVI's were a nightmare to keep clean, and they were huge 6 spokes, nevermind those f*****s! haha.

 

[ditz]

i dont think it will,, the spokes are too big on the 172 wheels to pull off white imo

looks fantastic on wheels like howsers though

 

[Marky_]

Matta88's ph1 is a great example too.

 

[Bjorn]

Wouldnt bother. I have white wheels and theyre a pain in the ass.

Not sure the wide spoke would look that great in white either.

 

[Ian]

Matta_88's:

I was intending to do the same thing, but I think I'll either keep mine silver or exchange for Turinis and possibly go white then.

 

[Christopher]

They need to be motorsport-look wheels to pull off white IMO. Turinis/Pro Race etc

The Ph2 wheels look like Hammond's teeth, too big and blocky

[B16DOE]

not white ph2 wheels

 

[B5 BDJ]

only really one answer... YES

 

[Tigger]

Do it mate!

 

[Adamski182]

had white wheels on my ibiza cupra - if you dont clean them every day they will brown over time - do look lurvely but a PITA to keep looking fresh

 

[cat171]

I'd not do it tbh and if you do it, don't do the centre diamonds white too as that will look awful.

 

[Christopher]

They're not that hard to care for.

I manage it ok. You just need to protect them a little more than you would any other colour.

Wax, sealed, done.

 

[Hoppy]

Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Yes!!

[Kerbing]

Tig/ rest of the NI crew- Know any good wheel refubers?

 

[wiley]

white looks fresh, do it mate

wiley

 

[Christopher]

Agreed. Nothing looks better than white... when they're clean

 

[cat171]

^
His won't look like that though mate, he's on about just getting standard 172 wheels done in white.

Multi spokes look nice in white, 172 alloys won't look as good imo.

Hi

 

[N90 ACK]

First thing thanks for all the comments, second thing do you think it would be better getting them done in anthracite instead of the white. I really don't know what to get now
