    What colour to paint wheels

    So, I have decided to refurb my Thor alloy wheels on my black S60. All is going well. But I'm not sure what colour to go. They were all originally light silver. But I was thinking maybe a graphite grey. Anyone got any pics or opinions. I don't want black.

    I want to redo my Thors on my 850.

    Was thinking of gunmetal grey with a silver rim

    Thors looked really bright on my/Steve's black S70

    I would want to see a set before spending the money though

    Aye, that's why they're on the 850 now. Too much wheel for an S70 in a bright colour I think.

    In other news, Louise has shafted one of my fake Pegs on the S70 now

    I've got a set if you need one, was just sat wondering what offset they were when you posted
