Looking for wheel color opinions
#16
White wheels are ga....nevermind. They just look foolish in this day and age. If you are going to get them PC'd, just grab a can of whatever color you prefer and paint them one color. Don't waste your time and efforts trying to make them look good for one weekend with something you know you won't be keeping. Titanium is a good color as it is a dark silver. Bright silver is so over these days (NOT to be confused with hyper silver!). Black doesn't work unless there is a theme going on with the entire package of the car.
Go to the autoshop and look at all of the metallic dark silvers. It will look great, cheap and easy. Then you can do what you wanted to initially..

Body colored centers and silver lip is correct Exclusive department look.
It seems more and more of the wheel was painted by factory when every new wheel design came into use. Design 90 has just face of the center part painted and still has silver edges in certer part also. Cup I has entire visible center painted. In Cup II also part of the outer rim is body color and just narrow edge is still silver.

A side note: The wheels are not gloss black. They are a semi-gloss which matches the wing, and other black bits on the car well.

Agreed. That's what I'm trying to do here - red and black. The jury is still out (personally), but it's beginning to grow on me. I may try the CF hood once again and see how it matches with the balck wheels.
