picking up alloys

[20vturbz]

hi,i just bought some alloys for my car, they are in the picture ( they are the actual alloys but i photoshopped them onto my car as i collect them this week) what color would suit the alloys? i was thinking the same color as my car?

Audi TT 6 spokes.... black or white would look good!

i was thinking black with the bits around the spokes white? i paid £40 for all 4 wheels lol

Great price on the wheels! I would keep them all one colour. Maybe do black outside and white in side if you fancy going for 2-tone!

Also, make sure you have 40 profile tyres on them....

40 profile?

 

[Gooner_Mike]

40 profile?

Yep, 205/40/17 or 215/40/17 tyres so that the rolling radius isn't too different from your standard wheels. The TT came with 45 profile tyres as standard so they will look daft and your speedo will be out!

Quite like them as they are tbh, suits the car quite well. I wouldn't do black, but that's just my personal dislike of black alloys.
There's a boy near me has them in a metallic purple on his Ibiza. Very hit or miss but I Think they're great.

I really like these alloys. Personally I'd say maybe a dark grey

I know who you are talking about with them in purple, I agree, I think they look fantastic!


Each to their own though
