So I plan on getting a set of HRE FF01s but I’m struggling to choose a color so I figured I’d lean on you guys to get some opinions.
If anyone wants to photoshop the colors on my Carrera S II wheels so I have a comparison that’d be pretty dope and much appreciated.



Gold Rush

Stone Champagne

Stone Gold

I would go stone gold. I like a little more understated.

OKB

I would go with all silver, or polished with black back ground

Gold, red and green might be a bit much in reality. Tire rack has a nice live display when selecting wheels - you might be able to play around a little there. Honestly, I think the rims you have aged really well.

I think it looks great with the silver, but I generally prefer silver wheels... But if you are going to go gold, go all the way with gold rush, it'll look best against the green and with the red calipers behind it. If you had yellow or black calipers I'd have suggested one of the others.

Well - you've asked for an opinion, so get ready, here it comes (for whatever it may be worth):

I think the best color for your car based on the sample finishes you've shown in your post would be the Stone Champagne. The other two finishes have varying degrees of yellow undertones which in my opinion would date the overall look of your car. The green finish on your car is very clean. Yellow tone finishes would negatively impact that look. Plus, they just look old.

What he said.....go with gold rush.......Love the contrast.......here are mine:

First off, beautiful car OP. Love the color.

For me.. its gotta be Gold Rush, out of the options presented. The contrast will really make the green on the car pop.

So here's some reference pics of the different finishes on some cars from HRE's gallery.

I faced a similar decision when I bought my wheels. I liked the gold or bronze family, but I didn't want something that had too much gold. I ended up going with champagne over a brushed finish, with gloss clear coat. I'm pleased with the results. Wheel color and style is so subjective, it's difficult to pick wheels. Good luck with your decision!

Right on!

OP - this is your optimum choice! Beautiful!

I think for a proper comparison, you need to compare green cars.
The other here all look great but that's against their car colors.

Google British Racing Green and click images.
There are so many examples including Porches that will give you a better feel for the color choice.

That’s why I was kinda hoping someone would photoshop those colors on my wheels using the reference photo of my car back when they were silver so that way I’d have some way to compare.

Definitely not Gold Rush, as it will look like a matchbox car. The lighter champagne color would be classy without looking cheap.

I’d go black with that green.
