I'm taking a massive risk..... (Wheel colour content)
« on: December 16, 2011, 01:46:48 pm »
I'm considering getting my wheels painted, have had the idea of Gloss Black (My Car is Black) but thought about getting red wheels...

has anyone done this before?

Wild/different colours looks good sometimes instead of going black all the time. Not on a VAG but my first car ;)

Blood red would go nice

There is a Black MK5 golf round my area which had 19" amg replica wheels on it in red, Looked ace!

Sure i have seen that Corsa around the Swadlincote area too?

See, there aren't many GTI's that have had slight alterations on wheel colour in Edinburgh, Saw a Black GTi like mine with gloss black alloys and it looked amazing ( I love the black on black look) but going with the original colour scheme I thought red would be something different, going to photoshop it and see what its like.

not a fan of just any old colour on wheels, has to tie in with other things on the car

Yeah well, thats why I thought red, just because of the lipstick line around the grill and also the red calipers
