spare set of 19's  :signLOL:

gloss black, but maybe get the centre of the three 'bars' on each spoke done in silver as a contrast.
theres a diamond shape as it goes out to the spoke edge , so there is a line to mask to.
you could do the edge and centre spokes black  vs silver for rest or vice versa with edge etc silver.

either that or go polished (but not chrome) look

Nah thats not extreme, Neon green/pink or orange is a bit more edgy!  :signLOL: If VW offer it as an option on the R it can't be too far out there!  :confused: have a look see if there are any RS Golf R pics knocking about with that option.  :wink:

It does hide it alot, I have seen them on a White golf R un the flesh. For some reason VW don't offer black rims as an option on the scirocco R

Where have the wheels gone?  Colour loses them!

It's a symptom of the photographs more than anything. To be honest I think they'd be improved by a polished lip.

Pics never really do Gloss Black wheels justice. Plus why does anybody want to see tyres anyway?  :confused:
