I need to get my 2 of my wheels sprayed so might as well get them all done

I drive a red VXT but not sure what colour to get the wheels sprayed

 

I dont want black as that been done to death so thinking either just standard colour or gunmetal or inspire me!

 

what you got? post away....

Thanks

:yeahthat: White on red can look really good on some cars. Might not work as well on a VX though, I think the car would need to be modified a bit from standard for them to fit in better. And as a prior white wheel owner, brake dust, UV, certain cleaning solutions etc are your enemy!

White would look good I think. In a Sam tan sort of way.

Gunmetal/anthracite has many shades from a dark to a lighter shade to throw in to the mix.

A few pics that might help. Appreciate that two of the pics are NAs but might give you an idea of the look.

Thanks Guys 

I like white wheels but not sure they will suit my car 

Yes they will be power coated 

 

I did say I dont want black but what about this? Black with a red ring around the edge of the rim?

I could be tempted

Also searched for gold wheels on a red VX but no joy. Did however find an S2 with gold wheels which might give you an idea.
