New wheels, black, grey, silver?
Looking at getting some new shoes for my baby.
I just can't decide what's gonna suit - colour wise. Infact I haven't chosen the wheels yet but just wanted some idea of people's opinions on colour choice. I have a TiAG E92 and was considering anthracite alloys but I'm now not sure if they'll just look like their dirty |

Depends on style of wheel mate.

Don't get black, it makes your tyres look grey and you lose all definition and shape of the wheels. From a distance they just look like black holes!
I got mine done anthracite and LOVE them!  |

do NOT get black wheels!!! i had anthracite, and i loved them. i have black now, and i can't stand them! gotta clean them all the time, and the only way to make them look decent is to pull them off the car so you can get a good clean on the inside too.

In my wholly unscientific opinion?
White car - black wheels. Dark grey car - silver wheels. Silver car - anthracite / graphite / gunmetal. Needs to be some contrast. |

Right, thanks for the opinions.
Black is out Chrome (full wheel) is out And 'colour' ie orange, pink, red,blue are out So grey (of some sort) or silver. Now, next question. Which wheels.i just can't make my mind up. Was really set on quantum 44 s2's but I'm starting to really like the 'deep dish' look. My opinions/suggestions needed Care is a tiag e92 SE. With subtle mods, black grills, de-chromed, boot spoiler. Just want to have it look a little more aggressive and a bit different, not over the top! Will be lowered at some point soon too. Fire away!!!! |
