The car is now on 21" 593R with gloss black center and chrome lip.

If you go to http://hrewheels.com/gallery.html and put in the 940R series and then select Bentley you can see the different styles. I am leaning towards a brushed center with chrome lip this time as I have had the black center on for about 4 months and want a change in look. Remember the car is Silver Tempest.

Opinions?

this is a 21" HRE B58 in brushed finish we did on Freds CGT.

You can get an idea of what a brushed wheel will look like on your color





Here is a flying spur we did with 22" 943Rs in brushed finish



These HRE 944Rs in brushed also look amazing on the CGT

i dont think you should have ever gotten black wheels for your bentley. it cheapens the car. unless your ride was black. i think you should go w/ the brush wheels. the car still looks classy. I do like the B58 on the gt like shown above.

I'd take a look at www.iforged.com.

They make very nice wheels and they are very accommodating.

See: http://www.iforged.com/us/wheels.php

Look at the TE series.

We'll see, depends on how the warranty is affected. I can only go 21", can't do 22" on my car.
