Guest BrainFluid Posted December 9, 2006 While I'm here I might as well have an idle dream about what are the best colour wheels on a miami blue. I'm struggling to think of anything really so what are your thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted December 10, 2006 on a miami blue it has to be very shiny clean standard silver 15" speedlines IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gtiracer 0 Posted December 10, 2006 I like these - but then again - it is my car Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ahl 4 Posted December 13, 2006 I agrees with both of the above, but side with the goodwood wheels cos' I like things to look different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest srack Posted December 14, 2006 i should go with the dark grey, as shown, but i would paint the whole wheel, and wont leave any silver on it. this, or just go to the other direction with white. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calvinhorse 870 Posted December 14, 2006 ill go with Gtiracer on this goodwood style Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baz 421 Posted December 14, 2006 Definately the Goodwood style IMO, the anthracite and polished lip just sets off a Miami well. Diamond cut rims also look good too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oli-pug 6 2 Cars Posted December 14, 2006 goodwood style with silver bumpstrip inserts cannot be beaten on a miami imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest BrainFluid Posted December 15, 2006 Interesting stuff! It would seem that there are few choices when coupled with the miami. Silver, agreed. Looks ace against the blue. Goodwood sure I could get used to that but not with red strip IMO, with silver strip and silver text on the side badges, yeah, ace a mundo. But I loves the red strip I do. Sign of a 1.6 eh? In fact 90% of the time it'll have 1.6 silver alloys on. I like them and want to keep the outside classic 1.6 looking. So what about the 10% of the time 1.9 alloys? Surely there must be a colour other than silver? Maybe the new question should be... "what is the best 'wacky' not classy colour to paint 1.9 wheels for a miami?"

taylorspug 7 Posted December 15, 2006 A mate of mine has white wheels on his Miami, but with the polished rim like the Goodie wheels. Looks pretty nice, but that is with chrome inserts, body coloured quarter badges and no slatted boot panel, so not too sure it would look good coupled with the red...

Guest BrainFluid Posted December 16, 2006 (edited) name='steve@cornwall' date='Dec 15 2006, 11:43 PM' post='630107'Red venoms! Urg, I detest vemons with a passion! Nah just somthing diferent for a 1.9 set for occasional use. Edited December 16, 2006 by BrainFluid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taylorspug 7 Posted December 16, 2006 Any pics Dan? Sounds like an interesting combination. Bloody thing has been sitting in the workshop for 4 months now with no wheels on, as hes too busy to work on it. I will get some up when its finished, hes registered on here anyway. Colour combination looks good on it anyway, especially as its one of the earlier lighter shades of Miami blue. Nice car actually, has an MI with Webers, its caged, Wilwood 4 pots, Quaiffe diff etc-pity it isnt working really! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eduard205GTi Posted December 20, 2006 Original silver! On the other hand, this also looks nice: Regards, Eduard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billy_boy 0 Posted December 28, 2006 personally i love the 16" 206 nimrods! they look so good on a GTi http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v638/Billy_boy/nimrod.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billy_boy 0 Posted December 28, 2006 perhaps do them in white or black though, that would look really nice... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastairh 47 Posted December 28, 2006 All 5 of those wheels look lovely. I remember seeing a pic of comp mo's once in goodwood style. looked absolutely nuts. 1.9 goodwoods for me though. Alastair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
