Well i've been thinking about a change of wheels for a while. Currently have the exaction split conversions which i do like but always thought the centres were a bit lost painted satin black. It was suggested at mitp that body colour may work but having put the spare on to sort a puncture, its made me think a little more.

Body colour or silver would work

What is the roof colour Rob? Hard to make out with the glare.. actually looks like a bit of pink in it, which I'm sure its not. |

I like them black.
I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

I found with silver centres, they blended into the outers and you didn't notice the wheels. The titanium coloured centre was a nice contrast to the outers and body colour in my case. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I'd say some sort of red, but with the tens the roof colour may get a bit lost, so perhaps something similar but slightly lighter? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

I'm coming round to the same idea. At the end of the day, its a bit of time and some paint if i go that route |

I dont think wheels should ever be anything but aluminium or silver, anything else just looks shit I seriously doubt it! |

As per FB, I reckon roof colour. In black all the detail is lost of the centres.

Another vote for roof colour. Would tie in quite nicely. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Certain cars and wheels i agree carry off plain aluminium finish, such as Paul's where the wheels are the least of the detail!
