Ive just bought some 17" titans and when ive burnt a bit more rubber of my 16s and have some cash I am sending them in for a refurb before i find some nice tyres.
Does anyone know the orignal colours offered?
was it graphite grey, silver, and black?
What colour do you think would suit my miss Whiplash best?

Either silver or graphite mate, i think the silver would look awesome on a darker car!

So could you get ordinary T5 wheels refurbed in a graphite colour?

you will see that my friend Martyn had his done. To be fair he did them himself - he had all the gear and that.

I think they looked OK - but when I saw them they looked in need of a touch up.

you can get any wheel done in any colour you want, Volvo actually list the standard T5 rims in the graphite (but i've never seen any)

Have had them done and fitted today. They look mean in Dark Graphite Grey, like a carbon fibre blackish Greyish colour.
Plus she handles loads better with the new rubber 2. :thewave:

Wheels, colours, Umm, sounds like me, I recently picked up a set of 17's five spoke, V70 ones for a mere £130, with tyres, problem is they were not all the same colour, I am now waiting for them to be sprayed a nice BMW graphite grey (Remaining paint from other job!!), as for re-furb 16's, that would be different, they can be done like all others for a price, it's just finiding someone that wants to spend the time preparing them at the right price... I could ask a friend who does a really good job spraying stuff if you want... :thewave:
