ROTA GRA's in gunmetal request....
I'm thinking of getting some of said rims and was wanting some pic's first to see how dark they actually are! Preferably on a black new age but anything will do!
Cheers

Make sure you get the black ally wheel nuts too. They look ****e without them. I have some pics with them fitted. Will post up in a bit.

I used to sell ROTAs.
Anthracite is what you'd expect gunmetal to be ordinarily.
My old RA with Boosts.
Sorry about the sideskirts. I'd only had the car a day!

The ROTA Gunmetal does seem dark.
Here's my Steel Grey GRA's...
...which are pretty close in colour to my old Gunmetal newage 17" wheels.

I don't know whether to go gunmetal or steel grey! Been loking on the rare rims website and just don't know what to do!!!
Gunmetal is slightly infront though i think!

Black 03 Blobeye, i really want to go for the stealth look. Got some smoked repeaters and taken off all the pink decals. Just need to decide how dark to go with the alloys. I didn't fancy total black wheels so the Rota gunmetal colour seemed perfect! Just wanted to see how dark they were in real life and not on a website

Steel Grey 
ok it's not a new age but it's the wheel 
One of our guys has Gunmetal it might be worth dropping him a pm to see if he has any pics, I've done a search but can't find the beggers.

Wondered how long it would be before you popped in Si Have you tried the Blackfire wheel tyre dressing? It's unbelieveable and makes the tyres look dripping wet. Lasts ages too
So you guy's have obviously seen both. Are the gunmetal's much darker?

Gav just had a moment of inspiration
southwalesscoobys
Watch the video for the South Wales Motor Show
You will see.... Bronze on a Red Mica, Gold on a Blue wrx, Gunmetal on a Blue wrx, Gold on a white classic, Steel Grey on a Type R and mine
I think it's safe to say we like em
