Default Wheel colour

So now that I have my car back and its all been painted im stuck on the colour to paint the wheels....... I was going to go fro anthracite wheels but think it might be to dark, a mate at work reckons that the white looks good but I really don't know.


Any input for you guys is welcome


cheers

tough one. my 2 cents.... anthracite or black would be too dark on that colour. silver is a bit boring. the white looks good. gold might work well but may look too overpowering/gaudy against a dark colour. nice car though... love that colour

I think the white wheels work well with that colour.

Agree with opinions that anthracite / black would look too dark and silver too run of the mill.

I have a similar dilema with my silver turini's, I'm half thinking that a grey or flat primer kind of shade would look good, somewhere inbetween silver and anthracite ????

White looks great but impossible to keep clean

I think the right shade of bronze or a dark gold would suit it well

Not the same wheels but gives u an idea of contrasts..
