Default New alloys, need some colour recommendations please :)

Hi guys and girls basiclly i have just bought some 17's for my bugeye, and there in silver and i think it looks really boring i fancy a colour change, and i'm a handy man with a spray gun so will be doing them myself

Heres a pic of the wheels:



Anyways, any colour recommendations would be great! also if you could possibly photoshop your colour onto the wheel so i could have a better look i would appreciate it alot!

Also there going onto a dark green bugeye!

i'd go black.

easy to keep clean, easy to touch up and look good on a dark green car.

Gloss black always makes the tyres look a dirty brown colour..........for dark wheels try graphite or bright flitter (Pff7 colour)

Ahh yes they do look like audi wheels haha, but defo fit a subaru, my mate had them fitted to his newage haha.

But i agree with the darker colour on them, gloss black or maybe gunmetal grey

NO ! Not gloss black....

Unless you keep your tyres spotless they will look grey and manky, dragging the whole look down, anthracite IMHO
