What wheel colour for these?

Post by lee gti 88 »

I've just bought some 16" BBS RS771's and they are in desperate need of a refurb. Just wondering what colour people think will look best, I'm thinking either silver, gloss black or bright met red with a polished lip (if it isn't too hard to do) or black with a red lip?

Had mine powder coated red with polished lip so voted for that lol. Think it would look good on a black car.

Yes mate they look very smart. Do you have a pic of the side profile so I can have a play with photoshop?

I must admit they look smart as they are minus the corrosion on the lips. Just thought they would look good a different colour. Has anyone got any tips for the refurb of the lips?

I am sure there is a DIY guide on here in the DIY section funnily enough.
