Nice wheels shouldn't be hidden in shadow. Plastidipped stockers? sure. murder away.
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...6c415ca633.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...d697fd956b.jpg $7k in HRE wheels and they dont draw the eye at all. https://cdn.hrewheels.com.s3.amazona...e3e2c48800.jpg I much prefer something bright enough to see. See how the wheel is visibile even under overcast lighting? will look good in anthracite/gunmetals/darker silvers https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.6sp...352f1b09a1.jpg http://www.baanvelgen.com/blog/wp-co...teiner_VRT.jpg very cool works in bronze https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ine=1397923234 full polished https://farm4.static.flickr.com/3547...9da02ea2_b.jpg I'm fully aware that real life has more dynamic range then photography but i think the effect holds. Really nice wheels just don't look really nice in anything but direct bright light when black, especially when not glossy. Glossy black on glossy black is also kind of boring looking imho. Not a fan of painted bright silver, as many times it's kind of a dated look right now. I do agree about the black on black, lose all the detail. Here's my old car in basalt with black gt2 wheels, can't even see em. |

Attached are pics of my Champion wheels on my basalt black car. I get many compliments of the black on black look. BTW, wheels where powder coated basalt black to match the exterior.

I'm having this dilemma now haha, have a Atlas grey car and bought some GT2 RS wheels, can't decide what colour.
Either as they are, that light gold colour, or gloss / satin black. I quite liked black but reading this thread put me off lol. As it stands now: Attachment 492924 New wheels: Attachment 492925 Hmmm |

What colors are you leaning towards? here is atlas and stock silver: http://rennlist.com/forums/997-forum...ml#post8763815 atlas on HRE's darker silver. http://rennlist.com/forums/997-forum...l#post10273536 Be kind of interested in seeing a dark bronze-charcoal. I definitely vote for not-black. |

Pretty straightforward look, but still looks very nice. Champion RG5's. i'll sell them if you're interested. PM me.
Attachment 492921 Personally, I also really like the stock, forged Turbo II's Attachment 492922 I've also done the plasti dip route, but it didn't really turn me on. Attachment 492923 |
