Gen6GT Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I've been offered a set of 17" white lightweight (7Kg per rim) wheels just renovated and powder coated, with 2 new and 2 part-worn Pirelli P-Zero tyres at a bargain price. I've tried to find a pic of these on a silver Gen6 GT (mine's a Vert) but no joy. Opinions welcome, and if anyone can find a pic of white wheels on a Silver Gen 6 a link would be great. Ta!

mutznutz Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 If you can post up a pic of the vert from the side I'm sure we (collectively) could sort a photoshop of those wheels on your car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev 16v Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 White Rims on a White car, on any other paintwork they look gash IMO. Gunmetal or Shadow Chrome to be different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briano Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 think white wheels look brilliant all the time, you hsould still buy them and maybe just change the colour if they dont suit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mutznutz Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I think its quite cool how your current wheels silver rim, dark wheel, fit well with the silver car and black roof You could take the wheels and go a dark colour with them again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe588 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I think white looks awesome on all colours, silver being a bit hit and miss though. Depends on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gen6GT Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well, I've now bought and collected the wheels so I'll try them on tomorrow. If I like them I'll keep them, if not keep your eyes on the "For Sale" section... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biffy69 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well, I've now bought and collected the wheels so I'll try them on tomorrow. If I like them I'll keep them, if not keep your eyes on the "For Sale" section... You do realise that if you put 'em up for sale we will try to bid you down now you have told us you can get them "for a good price" lol I think black wheels to be honest on your motor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon they would look bettter on my car (being black)if they fit & my prospective would prob. look better on yours .. (if they fit also) we could do a swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbdags Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 The only issue I have with white wheels is they get grubby so quickly and then they look gash. On silver I'd go for darker wheels. Or gold / bronze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cait Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 white on red and white on black looks good too I agree would be up for a swap seeing yours is just 'been offered to you cheap ' & mine is some I've bisd on & changed my mind about as I dont NOW fancy Black & chrome on a black car whats your fitment & make of these .. think the ones I've GOT ,. but not yet GOT .. are either RS jk5s OR kendo asai tech not sure they have RS Badges but look more like Kendo's ??
