New Wheels.

[sam.bird3]

Picked up another set of 19" RS6 alloys today.(One of mine is Buckled) They are the standard Silver colour so not sure whether to Vinyl Wrap them in Anthracite so they look like the ones I have now or leave them as they are. Have to wait till Tuesday to get the tyres fitted so will put them on and see what they look like before deciding whether to wrap them or not.

Had the wheels put on today, They are the standard Alloy Silver at the moment, But I think I prefer them. Although I Loved my Anthracite wheels I think the silver looks a lot more "Standard" it makes the car look a bit more classy, also makes it look cleaner. The only problem is the fronts were rubbing on the front wishbone. I now need 2 new wheels as they have rubbed one of them down to the wires!! I will have to get spacers for the fronts now, probably space them out by about 5-10mm to get them away from the wishbones.

Here are some pictures.

One of each colour.




Both Anthracite.



Both Alloy Silver.



Think I may keep them like it, what are everyone opinions?

Way better in silver mate, looks really good.

They look great in the standard silver Sam IMO

Re the spacers - Hubcentric is the way to go, maybe around £100 for the pair but worth if for a good fit & safety.

A paint job on the hubs / calipers to clean them up and maybe some drilled / grooved discs she'll look awesome in that dept mate

Silver all the way, I think that it is a much cleaner / better look, goes better with the colour of your car

Silver every time Sam, never been a fan of the DIRTY wheels look and a dark wheel is harder to see/notice, but its' down to your taste

Silver for me, but its your car at the end of the day.

Up until I put these on I always thought the Anthracite wheels looked great on my car, but after putting these on I now think they were a bit Tacky! I much prefer the silver now, looks a lot more "classy"
I think I need the chrome window trims now to finish off the look.
