As title and poll :)

Will be rolling on my standard 15" BBS wheels at least till my Toyo's are worn out, and I'm looking to freshen them up a bit. What does everyone reckon for colour?

Wheels are of this type:

A pic of them on the car might help people visualise...

I'd go with a brilliant/high-power silver, with a touch of fleck (hence me voting 'other' :))

My reasoning being that on a 15 anything that's darker (e.g. black/anthracite/grey etc) will make them look smaller, and that can't really be afforded! But with a sparking silver they'll rock B)

I like the Gold idea (was looking at Image splits with Gold centres...)

Pic added to the original post.

Silver like the Long Beach's?

No, that's not my wheel! :rofl:

It's the same, but rougher! No kerbing, just lots of lacquer/paint peel/in grained brake dust.

Hmmm... there's also the option of having them professionally done at a later stage, get them diamond cut?

another vote for pink :p

Gold would work well, only thing I'm not keen on is having alloys colour coded to the body.
