Wild wheel colour?!

[NFox]

Not going to be to everyones taste if anyone at all however this summer I want to spray my wheels a wild colour, i.e luminous green/orange. Just wondering if anyone else had any interesting colour ideas.

An theres no real purpose to it I just think I need to get it out of my system lol, mid life crisis maybe

black and white ever decreasing spirals?

Think that would cause a few headaches

on a silver car i'd say orange or red, i dont think green would work so well.

Go for it Nick, probably best to try some ideas in Photoshop first though. Green is in keeping with Skoda but maybe not quite bright enough for you, orange could turn heads (and stomachs). I guess it depends on the colour of your paintwork.

Have you considered getting some decals/stickers done instead. I was thinking of getting mine stickered up Dukes of Hazard style, but was told a confederate flag would not be considered "politically correct" and when I googled it I could see their point.

i put red rims on my silver honda a while back, thought it looked ok....untill i cahnged my mind 2 month later and went back to silver .... silly me

I'd go with the photoshop option first... i'd like to see Race Blue alloys - Korban bought my old wheels and tried one in silver, race blue, white and anthracite

There's a bright blue 206 at uni with bright orange steel wheels on the front, and bright green on the rear - looks pretty good surprisingly.

How about vivid pink?

Yeah might have to fish out photoshop, haven't used it in ages!

Probably what i'll end up doing

Blue on silver I think would look quite funky, definitely an option

I did think about pink but I think thats going a bit to far, even for me :p

[devonutopia]

White?

You could always go with a wrap setup rather than paint so it is relatively easy to reverse. Saw a cool camo wrap used on some wheels at ultimate dubs,

[NFox]

Whites to original, I want to stand out even if its for the wrong reasons lol! Did consider wrap however I do want to spray my wheels anthracite at the end of summer anyway so could do with the practice of spraying before hand

My winters are going to be CMYK- so dont copy me lol

Not alot works on a silver car tbh.. i had a maroon/red colour on my silver polo, i had 17 sets of different wheels for this car so i'd say i know

[pip_vrs]

They were alittle bit brighter in real life, bit dark in this pic

edit: had these on too, can't find a pic on the car bit i loved them.. also made £300 profit on them

paint them bright you will love it i done my twingo wheels flourescent orange

[PeteVRS]

Now that Twingo looks great - orange wheels and blue body definitely work together.

Wow! That is a really bad colour combo!!

[NFox]

Yeah think I'm set on orange now Just need to wait to pick up my steelies at CC and then I'll be getting straight on it

[sausage roll]

IMO nothing but silver works with silver. Anthracite doesn't look too bad and I think you can get away with white or black at a push but anything else is just plain awful :S

[xxjodifxx]

The twingo certaintly turned heads hehe!
