what do you guys think

I am thinking about colour coding my wheels - have a green/black w208

I have a similar set to these wheels: (except mine has a deeper dish at the rear)

I was thinking of colour coding my wheels in a similar fashion to this. Here is a side view of my car - if anybody is good at photoshopping it..

Will it suit?

I think you should colour code them like the ones on sale they would look FAB deffinatly a good contrast to your CLK

If you can get hold of a higher qaulity image i could photoshop it as a 'before and after' like i did for C43AMG and his grill.

cheers gurps, i will get you one when i get hold of a digi cam, any idea how much that would cost - i might the dish polished as well while im at it

 

[chrisbala]

here are some pics - dont know if they are high enough quality

Don't do it. Why spend so much on a wheel that you make invisible?? They are stunning wheels so show them off by keeping them as they are. Although, I would have dechromed them or bought them in shadow chrome as I don't like shiny, chrome wheels, principally because too many redneck 4x4s have them. Can you dechrome or darken them slightly for that ultra tasteful brushed metal effect?

 

[chrisbala]

hey, they are not chrome, they are like hyper silver, i think it looks chroms because of the pictures

 

[shadowninja]

ah then i'll shut up

personally i would leave them as they are, spend the money on some AMG bumpers instead....

i would agree with Raj because no doubt this will be expensive and cost a small fortune to get them sprayed like that, however if you are really interested why not ask Howard hes had some spraying done to his rims

yeh howard did do them himself, i was just contemplating but probably would give it a miss- i really wanted to put the amg kit on but its just soo expensive!! - 1500 for the kit alone!?!!
