Personally I think that with Grey / silver cars, the problem with the mid shade wheel colours (anthracite and shadow chrome) is that the colour can look almost as if you have tried to match the colour of the car, and failed.

So with this in mind, Silver or black would be my colour of choice for such a car colour.

Being it's a tvr and I'm always a little different anyway how about a navy blue to match up with your roof? Would be great if there was any navy in your interior too.

Just my thoughts wink

if you want to try something reversible and cheaper, have you thought about vinyl; wrapping of the wheels....something i am considering for this reason.

an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpsV7jaA5No

This looks really good, but i think its because the roof matches in. Maybe dark blue wheels to match the roof/interior may be a good option.

Finally Potash someone on my level! I say go for the navy look to match your roof and tie in with interior. As long as you love it what else matters? Ps we can pretend you really thought of it before me wink

I was at Runnymede the other day and they had a dark grey Aston Martin DB2/4 with Burgundy wire wheels - it looked awesome!

I have anthracite spiders on my Highland Grey Tamora - I like the stealthy look!

A couple of my cars are grey or dark grey. After trying a few combinations I settled on dark grey as the best match, but it is all personal taste

I'll go with that, then if the wife doesn't like it i have someone else to blame.. Just got to match the blue colour... I think there is a sticker on the inside of the door.

They do look purple lol. I think the navy will look very nice! On my own stardust silver car I went for metallic gun metal like anthracite but there are the metallic flakes that bling when clean wink
