alloy wheel colour

[stevocupra]

Due to a split tyre I will be returning my alloys this month. Was going to go gloss black and do the roof the spoiler and mirrors to match but then wondered about using the dark grey the cupra r came in to the same effect. What are your thoughts? My car is yellow btw

personally id go dark grey or anthracite.

+1 on Dark Grey

+2. Really don't like black wheels.

Dark grey it is then. Was torn between the 2 but that's settled it lol.

I painted my LC starfish wheels in a slightly darker grey than the factory colour, so it is between the Platinum Grey my car is and the standard wheel colour.

Black has been done to death, it look nice on some cars, but can really shrink a wheel if it isn't the right style I think.

Black looks smart with yellow, there's an app called 3d tuning, which lets you choose the colour of a SEAT Leon, and change the colour of the alloys too, helped me choose mine. Failing that just google images search Yellow seat leon mk1, should be plenty of examples, not sure on the grey myself? But each to their own

Left field choice, just had mine refurbed in Volvo Polestar Light Grey Matt. Its the colour the 20" Polestar wheels come in. Its not silver nor anthracite (which I really dont like) somewhere in the middle. Its on a Luna Grey FR+.

Hmm different. Did think about an outrageous colour but its my daily rather than a track car.

Be different....why not go Orange!

 

[stevocupra]

Not sure on a yellow car. Food for thought though.

There's a guy up near me with a yellow LCR with gloss black wheels and the roof and mirrors and spoiler is the same black and yeah it looks damn good
