Title: What Colour wheels complement Steel Grey Golf?
Post by: Resonance on March 18, 2011, 04:57:51 pm: Was thinking to myself while at work what colour wheels complement the Steel Grey MK5?

As you know with the colour wheel the primary colours all have their opposite colours and colours which complement them, but as grey is a mash up of different colours what looks good with it in the terms of wheel colour?

Any thoughts?

Dont think black or anthracite suits it, so would have to be another colour.
Personally I think a multispoke like the BBS RM with red spokes would look spot on, or even a lime green kinda colour

Colours they could be and still look good with the steel grey car.
