Agreed, silver looks best, maybe paint the centre caps black?
If you really want to stand out, go for something like red which contrasts better with black - I reckon the novelty of green wheels will wear off in about an hour lol

theyre 5x17 BTW!!!
they look nice in silver, but just too sensible?!
bright pink is sooo not my colour, however tempting! i know a good powdercoater and he told me about a proper toxic neon pink he used before
and i was thinking today of going black (painting them black that is) and different colour centre caps
anyone know any good vinyl shops?
also has anyone seen these wheels on any polo? or any car infact?

Yeah there's a really decent vinyl shop in Rochdale. I am popping down this Friday to get a few UK-POLOS.NET vinyls doing.
What are you going to do with your old rims and what are the size of your old ones. They look real nice on!

Theres the website for the vinylists. I am going down this afternoon to go my vinyl done. So I will give you a review of the quality.
They tinted the Awesome GTi golf! Check out their gallery.
