Makes wheels look bigger without defining tyre black against the wheels doesn't it ?
Is it me or does it look lower too ?

R these black gloss ?

Yeah, it does make the wheels look a big bigger. The colour is dark anthracite but not black. It looks low because...well.. it is wink Its the way I like 'em biggrin

Its not as low as my other Tuscan though yikes

Boiler engineer ???

You industrial fitters earn way too much.

Us domestic fitters only get one car to play with !

Good skills on that challenge racer mate ..dead envious

Thanks for the pic. I think I need to get them done.

If you can wait for a few days, I'll post a picture of my Mk1 Silver with anthracite wheels.
I prefer them more than the black, but I might be a touch biased wink

That's if I remeber to get the camera out!

Cheers Chang ! All pics appreciated. My car is actually new aluminum and whilst its silver its almost flat silver in some lights. I'm thinkin shiney black will not look that cool but something more muted perhaps ?

Very nice Chang
Mine was that height btw.
Now just lowered a smidge but just right.
Along with and s rear spoiler and splitter.

I don't care what people say..the Tuscan is one of the most beautiful cars ever


And with that rear screen out... Woohoo!

I'm having my Silver T350's wheels refurbed at the moment in Shadow Chrome (just to throw an alternative into the mix), having seen this colour on other TVRs they look the nuts. Happy to post pics when I get the car back but it won't be for another 3 weeks or so due to other works.
