What Color Wheels?

[monkee87 2]

I'm going to refurbish the wheels on my GTi which is a grey.

Just wondered what your thoughts are as to what color/style I should do them?

 

I did think about goodwood style as I love the two tone, but it'll be too much grey maybe..? If I go for silver, I think a dark silver might be good.

Deffo not going to be White, so don't even suggest it..

 

Pictures would be useful.

 

Thanks!

I would go for standard silver, paint code is eve iirc.

A nice sparkly sliver would be good for a steel grey. Some refurbished wheels can look a little dull.

A slighty different version of the goodwood style but I like the none the less....My old TT

im torn between black and a slightly darker shade of silver than the standard one

I've got a graphite, and with white wheels it looks pretty good i think, especially when just polished, but they're an arsehole to keep clean...I'd go for silver I think, keep it looking stock.

silver on grey looks best

That would be my call as well.

Thanks guys.

 

I do like the look of the goodwood style wheels, but it's a bit too much grey..

I think i'm going to go for the standard silver. If my car was lowered it'd make the silver wheels look so much better I think.

 

Time to get my spare shot blasted... Have to do them one by one..

Brands Hatch Scruitineering Bay! I wish I was there right now!

Ah man, that looks heaps good! If yours is an F reg, it'll be a slightly different color to mine won't it? Mines got the paint code MOTW under the bonnet, which is what color the goodwood wheels are...

Having the wheels the same color would be way too much grey!

 

What about a dark silver and a silver lip? How do you think that'll look?

Ive got a graphite grey pug and I got a mate to spray my wheels the same colour....... but they came back cossack grey (i think), with a small red strip on the edge of the rim they look great! I would post a pic but she's in the garage at the mo
