Red LCR - what colour wheels?

[kez]

As some of you know, my LCR wheels are in a shocking state, so it's time to get them refurbed.

Anyway, what colour powdercoat should I go for?

White, Gunmetal / Anthracite, or standard Silver?

I'm leaning towards white.

I think dark wheels look great on red lcr’s

I've always loved red car/white wheels combo, certain cars can pull em off, never seen an LCR with white wheels, so i'm in favour of that!

There's a guy on here with a red LCR with dark coloured wheels. If you look in the 'Best Looking Cupra' thread he has a picture of it in there.

white looks mingin on a red LCR i've seen one. white multispokes on a red ibiza on the other hand look good. i'd say either silver or black would look the best.

cheers, that car was why i was considering the anthracite.

i did think that white may look a bit naff. unless i get some r32 wheels in white

i'm not keen on black, as i reckon they make the wheels look smaller

also, looking at MDS's wheels, they're also anthracite. looks like we have a winner

Gun metal all the way!

The red one looks smart, but post 304 - the black and gunmetal's a bit odd. I was thinking of changing, but I'll stick with Black/Silver as God himself intended

Any opinions on that one??

Anyone got a pic of a black LCR with white wheels?

Used to have a black MK1 clio with white williams wheels and it looked sweet! Really stood out. Tempted to do the same to my LCR as my wheels are in serious need of a refurb too..

Not sure i like the white wheels on the red LCR, but thats possibly because it looks a bit orange in that pic.. probably looks better in the flesh.

yeah, i think the two pics above have clinched it. gunmetal for me.

 

[kez]

went for metallic anthracite powder coating in the end

Very nice Kez.

 

[jamie paton]

i like that a lot, more piccies please kez.

 

[kez]

i'll try and get some more. light was getting a bit low when i took those.

EDIT: really pleased with how well they turned out. only(?!) £50 a wheel too, inc VAT
