Joe expressed some negativity towards this idea.. I like them, but it would seem i'm in a minority

I quite like it! I definitely prefer the design to the Multispoke on there already, as they remind me of some cheap TSWs knock offs from the 90's.

I wanted to make them nice, so may as well see what they look like when they are finished.

I think that ill go for a graphite grey or something a hint darker. I actualy really like the look of it

I think they look ok, although a graphite grey or similar would look better I think smile

Silver does not work for me. The style looks nice. It's amazing how small they look on that car! Diddy!

odd that they are bigger than the wheels that just come off it!

I think they look better than the original wheels and agree with a gunmetal/dark grey for the colour. thumb

I like em.

As a wildcard idea, how about red to match the Abarth decals? I've looked at a few white cars with red wheels on line and they look cool. Have a look at this one. Similar wide spoke wheels in red.

http://www.fiat500owners.com/forum/11-fi...ls-here-26.html

While anthracite is cool, i think they don't do much for the overall look of the car. Our Alfa has them, but 5 of the spokes are silver to make them stand out.

I think a small car can pull off funky colours better than bigger cars, cos it's all about the fun !!
