Alloy wheel refinishing...... colour?

[ricksaxby]

I bought some mk1 wheels off of ebay recently that were an absolute bargain. They are original mk1 alloys that have been refinished in white. I wasn't 100% keen on the colour however they came with the tyres I was after that were barely worn and were a bargain so went for it anyway.




Well I've now completely gone off the white wheels and so am going to take the car to have the wheels refinished a different colour.

Not sure what colour to go for? Thoughts anybody? I am thinking maybe black or anthracite but not sure. Does anyone have any pics of theirs with dark coloured wheels?

Thanks in advance, Rich.

Think I might splash out on a set of these.... I assume these will fit? 15" x 6.5 with PCD 100 and offset of 40. With 195/50-15 Yokohama PS2's.

I reckon they would look pretty mean!

I have just bought a set of these (15" x 6.5) with Toyo T1-R's in 195/50

Can't wait for them to arrive, I'll post a pic as soon as they are fitted!

Well the wheels are on and I think they look pretty smart! What do other people think? Think the next project will be to lower the car an inch or two.

I've now got a set of standard 14's refinished in white with some decent Yoko A539's if anybody is interested, make me an offer!
