Wheel colour??

[Abb]

My car is booked in for a full correction detail with ceramic coating, not until August. At the same time I am toying with the idea of changing the colour of the wheels, my problem is I am unsure what to go for. I would like thoughts and opinions please to help me decide.
I purchased the set of wheels currently fitted (matte grey) believing them to be a lighter shade than they are , as I am not a fan of dark coloured wheels on dark coloured cars but didn't want shiny silver either. I now think I should have opted for silver .

Black works well with the orange callipers. I would maybe consider silver if the callipers were a darker colour.

I'd go for a dark gunmetal.

Need to be silver, not a fan of dark wheels on any car. To me they just make a great car look dull.

They are coloured 'slate grey', so not entirely sure dark gunmetal would be massively different.

My normal train of thought, shows what happens when you deviate from the plan!

That's what prompted me to deviate from the plan

How about a high finish silver. Almost a mat chrome but not chrome. If you see what I mean....

I agree

To be quite honest IMHO, I think you're already spot on with the color you have! The silver shown seems to be out of place or you may go for the main stream Hyper Silver. Black is just about as exciting as a brick! In all honesty, black just seems to lose all the appeal the rims have to offer.

I like what you've done with the calipers & would go on from that. Alloygators rim protectors have launched a new orange which looks very close to your calipers; you could give them a try & at the same time protect the rims from getting kerbed!
