Platinum LCR wheels - what colour?

[Stuart83]

Hi all,

I'm due to be picking up a mint platinum grey LCR in a few weeks, and I'm having the wheels refurbed ...

Any suggestions on what colour I should go for, or should I keep them standard?

Anyone here got any pics of the standard wheels in different colours on a platinum LCR?

Ta!

a lot of people go for anthracite or black, i sold my old black BBS Chs to a mate with a plat grey lcr

so will be very much like this but not that low

Go for something completely outrageous, Lead don't follow

black or Kawasaki green the colour grey is an easy option as loads of colours go with it

Is that flat colour or with a sparkle in the paint ??

Stick with silver mate. Can't see the point spraying them black as you can't see the wheels hardly at all then!! But at least the brake dust won't notice lol

Anthracite, a darker shade than the car, my old platinum, had oz ultraleggeras in that colour, contrast was perfect, yes everyone has grey/anthracite, but they have it for a reason!

That looks pretty smart! Will be really nice to see how they look once they're back on the car.

I'll keep an eye on this thread as have the same conundrum myself, mine are rattle can black at the moment its how I got it but i've gone off black lately and fancy a change, if I'm daring enough I'm going to go for a matte bronze similar to the Rota Grid Drift Colour. I used an app on the iPhone called vrimz to check some colours on mine. knocked this up which gives you sort of an idea what I am aiming for.

I may just wimp out and go for a Dark Anthracite or Gloss Black.

They do make me consider black again, look really good, only issue I have with black is you seem to loose the definition of the wheel especially when taking photos.

that looks seriously good!

personally dont like black wheels, in even slightly lower light situations it just looks like a black blob.

Theres a golf mk4 with BMW Sepang Bronze alloys I lifted them off that for the mock up, I may actually go for it something different I suppose.

Yeah they look pretty sweet better thank black I'd say.

I'm probably really boring but I still like the factory fresh look ... the car I'm buying is pretty much mint condition so I'll most likely go down the OEM route.

I had mine powder coated black chrome:
