Silver Gets My Vote....

Hongkongfooi 18-01-2010 04:17 PM

Lets put it this way...i'm thinking of getting mine painted silver!:five:

scatz 18-01-2010 04:35 PM

Gold and silver are a complete no no in my opinion (and that all it is, my opinion)! I'd err towards the silver in that case ;)

Greig 18-01-2010 05:08 PM

I like the silver ones best:grin:

Nige 18-01-2010 05:21 PM

Chunk 19-01-2010 10:35 PM

Guess what, I like bright flitter (which is what mine are), whish is a light anthracite/bronze. it's different to the WR1 wheel which is more grey.
It's a better match to the champagne mettallic in the royal silver.

yours is the a more silver (Code 406), so plain silver will work, although with the darker silver you can be quite lazy with the wheel cleaning.

Gold is OK, but I swapped some ST2 17's in silver to the same wheel in gold and I didn't like it on a silver car.

Gold does work well on a scoob but I think silver bodywork is the least best mix....although saying that WR1 Blue would look even worse with Gold Alloys......:getmecoat:

Be careful though with some of the Prodrive PFF7 copies as some of the anthracite ones are very dark and a matt finish, which personally I don't like.
