I am thinking about a quick (cheap) change to my new car. The wheels are good quality wheels so I was thinking of a little tweak instead of a total change by respraying the centers of the split rims.

The pics below A, B, and C are A = as it now, B = just going darker, C = itsallpurple (itsallyellow inspired).

Which looks better:
A)

B)

C)

Not a big fan of those wheels on that car personally but out of the options the standard silver looks best to my eyes.

have fun!

It is just an odd reflection from the shadow the seat throws - the window is normal.

I think 'B' is the nicest, the black looks good with the chrome. 'C' I think is a bit ott!

Sorry but D, change them completely. A loud body colour don't need loud wheels in my opinion. If not, B to tone it down a bit.

Thanks for the opinions. B was my first choice to make the car look a little more mean and not so bling.

Looking through the responses so far we seem to have:
A) 2
B) 5
C) 1?

D - Change them all together) 4

So out the options given I think B is what I will be going for.

I do have another little issue to fix first though...I think a coil pack has gone down but I will start another topic for that.

I'm not keen on the wheels themselves. I have a purple Cerb too, and it had freshly refurbished gunmetal coloured RL7 wheels when I got it. I hated them and the first thing I did was get the new powdercoat blasted off and proper silver applied back on. I think it looks much better now. Your wheels are already very shouty though and IMHO attract too much attention which the light silver perhaps doesn't help.

Option C above looks gopping btw.
