My car with Black/Anthracite S wheels?

[Karl]

Do you think


this looks any good with Black / Anthracite S wheels?

Im not so sure i'll like it?

[sy_VTR]

im not sure if it makes the car look dirty, but what if the wheels were Black?

Also,

my wheels are wrecked and need 2x tyres.

should i swap my wheels and 170 quid

for some mint satin black S wheels with 2 BRAND (Eagle F1) new tyres 2 x tyres which have 6mm + tread but are mismatching?

P.S I gotta drive 100 miles there and back for them.

black.

and be cheaper to buy them, refurb yours and sell on?

i did mine black recently, you can't see the curbing, smooted it all out and primered it back up

[furioALm]

Noo that's WAY to much... i bought my full set of mint vts rims and basically new tyres for £120!

Your better off buying two new tyres (www.blackcircles.co.uk) and painting them up yourself....

If it was my car.. i would spray them as dark grey as i could, but using a paint that had a metallic flake in it, so they still looked shiny

I thought you were selling your S wheels bud?

[Japman]

yea they look lovly

[Karl]

so you guys think my car will look better with a dark set of S wheels?

[stevenet15]

i think they look good but everyone has dark vts alloys on silver saxos now, here is some i once did anthracite:



if you do do it dont do them black coz will make ur tyres look grey.

i now refirbished mine back to orrigonal look

[furioALm]

Did a great job there steve

I am considering selling my vts rims... but i need to be able to afford other rims first... and at the moment i think im going to get my car lowered first... so it's not going to be for awhile...

I see.
well Steve, the ones I have been offered are Satin Black...
so you think those are a no go?

[ChrisJ]

I wouldn't go black mate. Anthracite or gunmetal will look smart though.

get pics of them but usually the gloss/satin black ones make the tyres look odd and grey so imo i wouldnt but its up to you its your motor

[Karl]

theres them dirty as hell.
they seem more anthracitey to me?

[stevenet15]

yeah seem more anthracite, get a head on pic of them and do a photoshop on your car as they have left the lip silver so might look odd

[Mysticp]

That polished lip looks quite funky

[Karl]

will update the thread tonight once i get more pics.

[riggsy]

Anthracite are nice.
