Looks like a good colour your picked.
Think about if you want them on before the the winter salt is removed from the roads...

Should look really nice when done.

Think that will look good Mikey, i'm a beleiver that wheels should be shiney & a silver finish, coloured wheels just never look clean to me, and that chrome finish that is on your wheels originally, looks good, but never seems to last.

Yeah I was going to suggest that it's handy if you can knock something up in Photoshop and try the rims out in different colours. At the end of the day it's what looks right to you, doesn't matter if the rest of us like it or not !
