vworks41 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) Been offered some nice 16'' cup1 porker rims, but they will need a refurb.Just want peoples opinions on what colour to go for....I've narrowed it down to either gloss white, light graphite grey with satin finish, or very dark cherry red which almost black but looks great in the sun.Or shale i stick to good old silver so what do ya reckon folks Edited August 7, 2008 by vworks41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CasperGTI Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I love my white wheels, But i do have to wash them twice a week. pain in the arse, but look so cool.My next colour is going to be lamborghini green, and colour code it with the mirrors, shark fin aerial and the I on the GTi badge.Just for fun.... but i may well keep it.You have to get a not so common colour, much like the TVR yellow.. as in this piccy.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
