Silver ftw, depends on what kind look your going for i think,
factory (speedlines may aswell be factory fit) i would go silver
For a subtle modified look with other lil bits, i would go anthracite or white (depending on what you prefer)
If your going for a tracked out white gsi like maris' then a lairy colour

defo silver, i know people say oh not another gsi/speedline combo, but looking at j222bhp above it all makes sense to me, looks amazing imo

I was about to write silver but looks like I'm a bit late! Lol

I like black grey white etc but you can't beat shiney silver wheels! Highlights the details too

FFS, still undecided!

£200 to have them powderocated, so it's a fair whack if they look poo!

I don't think they'll look poo, they're all nice IMO but for me silver is best :thumb:

Still tempted to go White.

May get both sets done and swap and change lol

get a photoshop done so then you can see, i personly think it would be too much white on the car, it wouldnt look bad as in white would look good but having them in silver would look far better :)

White comps work on White novas so speedos might work on it,

look up nachomcnovo's White nova, iirc he had White speedlines,
poor lad :(

Very light grey to match the decals

I like this idea.

May look like a dirty silver though?

Why not look through Scorge's wip his car has been on all colours that speedlines have been painted in, white look a bit motorsport to me and has to be the exact same colour as the car to work imo, silver does look nice but I beleive you need a contrast between light and dark when it comes to paint and wheels, if you want me to bring down two anthrecite (sp) and two silver you can try them if you want
