Going ahead with a refurb on my VXT. I am swaying towards a gunmetal, any suggestions or pictures to convince me either way? :)

Not Black.

 

Otherwise the wheels just blend into blackness...

 

Gunmetal is probably the darkest you wanna go.

Black, gold or white IMO

Gunmetal looks very nice and I had these on my Aston Martin & Q7 but not quite right on a small black car.

Depends of the rest of your colour scheme If you want a stealth look then black but can be a bit over powering Anthasite would look good and liking the idea of bronze but make sure get a good refurb done otherwise will look pants!

 

Def no on white!! I've a Champ white TypeR and wheels look clean for about 2 minutes!

What rims you got? Unless you want stealth, not black. Here's a gold and metal mix with black.

The car is completely stock at current. I think black will be too much whilst silver or white just get caked in brake dust!

I'm sure there are some Photshop guru's on here that could mock you up some options if you post a pic of your car..

I'd love to see a black car done with the colour below:

Could someone photoshop that?

Would be very wheel design specific!

Only way that's happening is if someone sprays my white Arai black.

 

Plus in the future I have a feeling my Vx wont be black (it wont be white either)
