the wheels are in need of a refurb and even though i like them being silver i feel its a waste doing them the same colour :roll: not really wanting something dark as they wont stand out as much. always loved white wheels but with the roof being blue it wont match, is there any other colour apart from silver?

any photoshops welcome :) and also, the front end is going lower...

TBH i like them the way they are or maybe go a little dark like a gun metal finish or maybe even black

they need spraying again, the safest option would be to go for silver as they do look decent. gun metal would suit it but i reckon theyl look smaller if i do that. im sure somebody with PS might change my mind

white would look awesome imo with the roof down. but i think white, purple and blue is a bit too much. and also, white doesnt really suit the style of car :(

if i was to go for silver, what silver should i go for or are they all basically the same?

thought id top this thread rather than start a new one. can somebody photoshop the wheels in diffeent shades of grey or whatever please? :)

im making all the interior black and i think the wheels darker will now suit the look

some newer pics aswell :

cheers for them. white would be nice but wont suit a convertible, and im wanting them dark to suit the interior. iv never been keen on totally black wheels but its tempting. think il have to look at examples of greys and blacks, a really dark shiney grey would be ideal i think.

could somebody do me a massive favour and shop these wheels on my car please. probably wont like them but if i can get them cheap enough i may do it, mainly because mine are in a bit of a crap condition.
