Audi Dolphin grey, same as mine  :happy2:



....But they look black and also you can't easily differentiate where the alloy ends and the tyre rubber begins.

Love the dark looking wheels on any car BUT recently saw these 19" BBS CH in Hyper Silver and have "nearly" decided these will be my next port of call for my Tornado ED30, OEM++ IMO.

....Do you know the expression "Gilding the lily" Steve - Think very hard about doing what is now a purrfect looking Ed30 and one which still does homage to its original form. Just my opinion.

I still think the right gold would look stunning on another Tornado Red. I thought about it briefly for mine but was sure of the OZ version of gold and mine were done primarily for lightweight and driver feedback.

He who dares mate......

That would be a hell of a lot of gold though!! She looks lovely as is IMO. Love the BBS LM's with gold centres, would look  :drool: on a Tornado Red (wish I was brave enough)!!

They dont look black at all  :P, they look audi dolphin grey (Think Gunmetal Grey), its only the sh*te picture I took quickly on an overcast day as a member was badgering me for a pic of the car  :grin:

Maybe if I could be bothered to take some decent pics in sunshine you would easily see them  :happy2:

There u go, deffo Grey  :happy2:

Not the best pic. but I was not washing the wheels just a pic  :grin:
