| Post subject: | Wheel colour - Have I done the right thing? |
I have sent my Cup 1 wheels in to be refurbed ( the silver ones in the pic) and have borrowed Paul's black track wheels. Well, now I like the black wheels and have decided to have mine done in satin black. Have I done the right thing? Rich ....its all Pauls fault!!

Not sure TBH! I think the fact there is such a deep shadow where the wheels are in the photos doesn't help someone to get a clean view. |

I almost coloured the wheels on my 924S black as I do think it looks good on a red car but not sure about on a silver one, my cup 1 wheel centres are colour coded to match the car which is Titan grey (dark silver) and the edge against the tyres polished alloy. I actually brushed one of mine with black poster paint (easily washed off) to see what it would look like and I prefer the colour coded ones, but as they say each to their own. |

Ha ha ha ha, I wondered if you'd like the black look. Very easy to touch in too The only thing I would say is to get gloss and not satin as they look permanently dusty IMHO |

I think they both look good to be honest, if I had to pick I'd choose black. |

Don't know whether it just looks a bit silly - one side silver, the other one black  My Fuchs are red inserts - I like it.

Ask a designer. The one colour thats a nono for wheels is black. Sorry. White, Silver, Body colour. But never black. |
