    You need something to break up the blackathon.

    From your picture I would take the bottom right selection which is the gunmetal grey or leave them unpainted and let the brake dust build up so you have brake dust brown rims.

    Now if you had any other coloured car satin black would be my first choice.

    HRE C20's



    If you had those HRE's you could have the centre metalic black and the lip natural/polished (the pic is polished) and it would look the business. Only problem is HRE's cost the earth!

    No you don't. That's purely a matter of opinion!! Granted that a break up of one colour never goes astray. But I wouldn't go as far as saying you need a 2/3 piece wheel to pull it off.

    BTW .. SEXY WHEELS

    The colour you choose won't suit every taste - no matter how much thought put in - my taste - pad dust grey/black - car always looks good even when the wheels are dirty, all four wheels look the same and I don't have to clean them on a daily basis.

    Was thinking gloss black all except the 5 triangley bits, them gloss white, on the face of them... Opinions??

    Im not sure even if it could be done easily or if its a headache to get done...
