I'd go for gun metal. Really sets the paint off well and I'll probably go for that next if mine get to needing a refurb.

I'd say white as well, looks wicked.

I have white on my Mica red, made a massive difference and looks fresh.

Only thing is a bugger to keep clean

Can't get the White alloy thing at all.

Gunmetal is best imo.

Funny you should say that, i didnt for ages. But then everyone was getting gunmetal black or gold, so thought I'd give them a go, and yeah like them a lot. funnny how these things happen. I also said I would keep standard, etc, blahblah blah, now got the bug now.

i've just changed mine for a met grey colour on standard 17"s and on black they look quite good, but a little small maybe - 18" may be the way to go?

WR blue looks good with the majority of colours provided you pick a nice style of rim

(awaits the inevitable post with pink wheels.....hmmm...pink!)
