I'm thinking of getting my wheels painted once I've got my coilovers purchased and fitted. I was originally thinking of going for black, but I'm keen to see what other colours people have gone for.

 

I'm especially keen to see how different colours look on a race blue combi.

 

Cheers!

Silver, black and anthracite (grey) are the common colours.

 

If you want pictures of black Neptunes on a race blue vRS search for the 'Blackline'. This was an end-of-line special edition that got the black Neptunes as standard...

There is a dedicated thread for the Blackline with loads of pictures:

Or for loads of other pictures of different alloy colour combinations check out the common 'post your MkII Octavia pictures' thread...

Agreed, I've never quiet understood black alloys? Why would you want wheels same colour as your tyres, that frankly most of the time you cannot see the difference in contrast!

When ever I see a car on the motorway with black alloys.. I always think, steelies???

Silver all the way for me!

I do like black wheels but they all depends on the colour of the car and the style of the wheels you should be able to find the colour on here with the race blue.

I went anthracite on a black car at a recent refurb. I like them and although I think I actually preferred silver, I particularly like the fact I have a more unique car, especially given the green vrs calipers on a non vrs.

I'm not sure anthracite would work on blue but pic posted anyway for reference.

I'm tempted to get my Neptunes similar to this. Local company to me and very very good.

Shame I'm skint at present......

Mine are black.

I did quite fancy white, I guess i'd need to up my car cleaning regimen to keep them looking good though?

ohh yeah, 3 days later the brake dust isn't pretty.

Go gold

Go gold

 

Scooby style? I'd be tempted if they didn't have the monopoly on the whole blue car, gold wheels look.

i have a white skoda octavia vrs and i have my car booked in Thursday to go 20/20 gloss black 

Heres mine 

Does anyone have any input on Wat would be the best colour for my neptunes if my vrs is grey..

Ye there standard as of now so maybe safer tealeaves them..
