Question Quick poll....!!!

A quick simple poll. I keep hearing people saying they either like scoobies with gold alloys or they like prefer them with silver alloys. So which is it to be...??? Gold or Silver..?? Makes no odds to me personally. I like the look of both. Sorry, forgot to add the anthracite option and don't know how to edit the poll if I can.

Depends on the colour of the car really. I've got a red mica classic at the moment, if I ever scrape together the cash for a set of 17s I think I will go for anthracite. Got silver wheels at the moment.

However the new shape STI in WR blue with gold wheels is One day I will have one

I agree with Graz & rossi, it depends on the colour of the car. I have just put some secondhand 17" STi forged wheels on my white JDM WRX wagon. Although I really like the wheels (light, strong, unfussy) they are gold and IMHO it really doesn't suit a white car. But they were a good price and came with nearly new Pirelli P0-Nero's so I'm not going to complain



much

Yer can't please some peeps

Got gold on white - sets the intent of the car off nicely IMHO. Not for the faint hearted though - cops seem to be attracted by them too

It's a tough one to answer coz it depends on the colour of the car.
I prefer Silver though

Gold doesn't cut it for me. Mine are silver but I'd trade them in for anthracite jobbies any day.
