What color should I paint tehm?

Post by turbonator »

Going to throw on some nice 17" for winter wheels.

I have a silver turbo wagon.
So do I go with,

Gold

Gunmetal

Or stick with silver.

Leaning to the gold.

Depends on the wheels. I'm partial to a darker gold on these cars myself, like the rally cars that show up on the top of the page sometimes

I had the dark gunmetal on the white wagon for 2 seasons and they just started to look dirty after a while. I noticed how nic the car looked when I put on the bright silver snowflakes in the summer so I painted the winter factory wheels silver and it looks better IMO.
