I was thinking of sticking with the standard 16" wheels as, shockingly enough, I really like the look of them. However I think they would look even better in Anthracite or Black Chrome.

Is there anyone out there who is handy with Photoshop that could do me two versions of this pic in the above colours, or near enough.

Many thanks.

I can recommend anthracite as it's fantastic at hiding brake dust

I really like the 16" wheel design too. I did have some RL style Tuscan 16" wheels on the car for a while (see profile) but went back to the originals.

I had mine refurbished by BJV engineering www.wheelrefurbishing.co.uk/ in anthracite, but it was more of a dark silver-grey, so wish I'd gone for black.

I've now changed to 17" wheels, but still in a 6 spoke design.

Thanks guys, particularly TT tim for the Photoshop mock-up.

Simon, really like the satin black finish on the BJV engineering website. Think that colour with the cooper green bodywork would give the car kind of Lemans Bentley look.

Stick with chrome...or what about gold if you want a change?

Yeah, I think that satin black colour would be good!

Make sure you've got the right colour car for it....I've seen gold rims on a green Cerbera, and it just didn't work (well, IMO anyway). You'll also look like a stretched Scoobie.....

Gold is for rice burners, No, I've made my mind up, its definitely got to be satin black! give the car a kind of mean stealth bomber come track car kind of look.

Maybe with yellow AP Racing lettering on the already black brake callipers would finish it off a treat!
