Looking at mine, and other coupes today im not sure if the graphite color looks great or bad? i cant help but feel perhaps its a bit to much?

so i wanted other peoples opinions if thats ok

what would you choose

20vt alloys standerd color
20vt graphite graphite

20vt+ alloys standerd
20vt+ alloys graphite

i know this is the least of my worrys at current, but as i was thinking about it i wanted your thoughts

what it looks like at the moment

they look great
im now doing mine in ford polaris grey metalic

the only down side to dark colour wheels is that they can look like they are just dirty wheels

i quite like that sam - i had mine on my old one done as you saw at cosford, and they were lighter than yours. they were called black chrome by www.wheelspecialists.co.uk and they are gorgeous. saw them again at motormech yesterday and they still look great, might have the plus wheels the same colour... love

The wheels look good as they are Sam cool

If you want a splash of colour, why not paint your brake calipers red smile
