White Wheels?

[chrisash32]

Hi guys!
Just wondered what your thoughts are on me going for white wheels when I referb my 17" alloys on my TDi Sport.

Been thinking about going for white... Might compliment the red quite well.
Don't want to go for the standard silver again.. wanted something different.
Any ideas other than white if not?

Thanks

Chris

Noooooooooo.............
Unless possibly an off white pearlescent, perhaps, but still probably no.

I think they may look ok! A lot of people over on SXOC have red cars with white wheels,looks good

 

[chrisash32]

if i go for white it will be the Candy White that SEAT have.

Keep your thoughts coming.. or is someone wants to do a photoshop, your quite welcome!

 

[chrisash32]

will probably do myself a photoshop this eve!

No! I think the wheels look good as standard!

 

[chrisash32]

Thoughts?

Comments please!

Excuse the non-cleanlyness of the car!

 

[chrisash32]

I think yours look very nice in white!!

Wonder what they would be like real world white though, be a lot brighter that! Something like candy white o the wheels or inserts black and fronts white, or silver face and white inserts?

 

[chrisash32]

For yours...
White face with black inserts would look amazing!

 

[googies]

Agh, ideas in my head and no time! I think it is my choice at moment, gloss black inner and candy white face!

My Altea?

I got my wind deflectors off eBay! Can you remember the seller googies? I remember sending you the link..

I know the alloys that i have are expensive to purchase from SEAT, I did ask once as two of mine are a bit mashed. Decided to go down the referb route - hence this thread!

Wind deflector seller: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/J-J-automotive Of which have three now, lost one ages ago!

I think i may go down the highly polished face and black inserts for now and can go white if needs be without much hassle.

IMO white wheels don't really suit the altea.

I had white type are wheels on my previous car, a civic sport, and they looked great when they were clean but thats the problem with white wheels, keeping them clean.

Here is a pic

Does anyone fancy a go at chopping in black inserts and highly polished face on mine?

 

[googies]

Bump........Who wants to photoshop black RS8's onto my car.

 

[googies]

I am going to paint thses black now, for reasons of filling in a scuff and the amount of brake dust to clear off. maybe a small silver ring on outside edge, only a bead of silver.
