Interested to see what they look like on the motor Steve as i tend to think silver alloys look best on reflex silver GTIs which is a bit boring... Having said that smoked / shadow chrome should look good too as would diamond cut.

I like Anthracite on the majority of colours but not convinced about it on Reflex Silver.

Hurdy's black on silver look better than i thought they might but i still feel black rims look best on white GTI's and then probably red & Steel grey next.  :smiley:

I personally think black is too harsh for wheels against Reflex Silver, but anthracite is just about right.  :happy2:

Unfortunately I didn't manage to get the wheels on before I went away but I did manange to put them on as soon as I got home from the airport yesterday.

Back from a heavy week in Zante now and thought right I need to get the wheels on. Just before going though I did manage to clean the exhaust and paint all 4 wheel hubs.

Now I landed home at 15:30 went straight home dumped my suitcase and got straight to work on putting my freshly refurbished wheels on. Hope you like

I'd be very wary of gloss black...

They stain, marr and get micro scratches very easily  :evilgrin:

I have anthracite on my reflex silver. Here's a couple of pics to give you an idea.

Those black chrome ones look sweet as do the ones above... I also like the bronze grey colour too... but think it will be boring silver as I get the car 110% mint before sale :stupid:

They look nice, going to go silver but a slightly darker silver... 2 Part worn tyres have arrived for my winter wheels, so hopefully swap them over on to the car shortly, then off to the refurbers the pescys go!!

I also have an RS, I just got hold of some Audi RS4 wheels for winter wheels and going to spray them myself, I have also had the Omanyts on my car and personally I love the silver on silver look, just nice brilliant mint silver on a silver car in my eyes looks spot on!

These will be going silver I'm sure, or a nice LIGHt Anthracite grey colour like this -







Just ever so slightly darker then silver, but still prefer silver :D don't dig black wheels on silver (sorry!)

Personal choice, remember it's your car!
