What colour rims ??
« on: August 09, 2008, 21:44:07 »
  Hi ya , I have come by a set of rough freestyle rims for her 2001 TD5 CSW, body colour is alveston red  :drool: But i have prepped the rims but we cant decide what colour to paint um  :-k

   The motor is usually a "shiney" BUT does get very dirty when the need calls  :lol:              Also has slightly tinted windows;

  Options are   Mainly body colour with a polished edge?
                        Black
                        Silver
                        Dark anthricite grey
                        Something else?

  Need to decide soon, as a set of BFG muds are waiting to be popped on  :D

Anthracite, or Black gets my vote :clap:

Silver, White/Limestone are too common-place

'Body coloured' only works on  Range Rovers (think the blue centres of the 'Classics' 3-spoke Vogue alloys)

Silver edge then either gun metal or body coloured centre, looks nice on the Disco 5-spoke too and makes them just a tad less valuable to the thief.
