I am a little help please. Although I am pretty decent on computers, I can't find anything on my Mac to assist me. Due to the harsh winter and the inability of my wife to park without mashing the curb! I will be getting all 4 wheels refurbed in the next month. Been and seen the guy who has done 3 already and have decided to go to a different colour.

At the moment I am thinking either Shadow Chrome, Anthracite or Black. Is there anyone who would be able to sort the photo below and add said colours? There are several threads on here about wheel colour but only one silver hatchback that I can find with shadow chrome.

Thanks in advance.

Nice car! I must be the only 19yr old that LOVE's octavia estates.

done quickly but i think you get the idea.

Middle one - Anthracite. Looks good!

Awesome thanks for the quick reply. Liking the bottom two. Decisions, decisions!

Middle one - black looks chavvy and tacky.

Liking the darkest-goes nicely with the roof rails!! Mmmmm

Middle one without a doubt. I have a silver one and would not consider black.

Just me then who prefers the standard silver

Nope, me too....

1st one for me

2nd and 3rd are too dark with the body colour

Anthracite looks great IMO.

I've had a few silver cars in the past with silver, anthracite and black wheels. I'd always go anthracite on a siver car.

.. not sure if you saw a pic i did some time back for Brimma to show him how the vmr wheel would look on a vrs - i did a couple of pics for him including one using your original image:

Now yer talkin! Tell your missus the wheels were irreparable & get these......

.. and finally:

There was a siver estate with black wheels for sale at one of the dealers towards the end of last year, not neptunes, but you get the idea:

Personally I think this one should have also had gloss black mirrors to complete the look...

... lol, yeah they do look good (19" and the car is lower vs. the original pic which helps the look) BUT I'm not sure I'd want to have these lovely wheels on the car if I had a partner with a propensity to "touch-park"

Yeah, they do look good but can't stretch to new wheels at the moment. I think anthracite is the winner for me, as although I still like the silver I just really fancy a change. Was hoping to get some anthracite bbs ck's at the end of the summer and use the neptunes for winter, but the idea of those being curbed constantly makes me feel a little queasy!

ROB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why did you have to post that pic again - I'd only just got it out of my mind from last time

Now those horrible and expensive thoughts of wheel changes are back again - anyone fancy a set of genuine 19" BBS CH's??
