Wheel colour for Mk2 in Goodwood Green

Post by Danny »

Firstly, I hope this is the right section to ask - I'm new, go easy on me!

I'm hoping for some opinions on what colour wheels I should go for on my MR2.

I've bought a standard set of wheels to refurb, but can't decide wether to paint them a nice bright silver, or go for something like a gun-metal/anthracite.

So show me some inspiration! :)

Personally I wouldn't go Black or even to dark a Gunmetal as it takes away from the definition of the wheels thus giving a block effect

I'd go for a Bronze or maybe even a standard ish looking silver :)

Although my inner child says go for a bright colour ie green etc :D

I'm leaning towards silver tbh.

I love the standard look of the car, and think a really bright silver would make it look much fresher.

Been going through exactly the same thought process for my Goddwood Green car & reached pretty much same outcome - going to stick with standard colour alloys or thereabouts. To my eye best combo.
