What colour Alloys?

[germinus]

Hi all,

I have the black limited addition with white wheels and I am fed up with cleaning them EVERY day, so I am gonna get them painted a diff colour, what colour would you do if it was yours? I figured black on black would be good but the sprayed reckons it would look shite but says a darkish gun metal would look cool.

Black On Black Would Look Awful Sorry =/

Gun Metal Sounds Cool !

Or You Could Really Stand Out And Have Red / Yellow Or Something Like That ?

Black On Red Looks Awesome !

yeah I was thinking red, but then I wonder if I would end up havin to clean them as much as the whites!

Anything that we can do about the white instead of painting them or washing them everyday? Isnt there a coating or something that can be applied that just allows you to rinse the shite off?

I would think that a silicon based polish would do the trick

I am thinking of going with the suggestion of gun metal

Anyone ever bought Kleen Wheels? Its an inside hubcap according to them. Seems to be questions about enough air getting to the brakes, however they claim they are fine.

graphite grey is a sick colour. my mate painted his wheels on his clio sport 197bhp graphite grey and looks siiicccckkkkk !!

Gun metal won't get dirty anywhere near as quick as white, I had Anthracite on my 200 and they looked nice and stayed fairly clean looking even when dirty. They sort of just "Matt" instead of showing the dust.
