I'd go anthracite, black is too dark on red imo. I'm looking for a set of CH's for my tornado red gti which will be done anthracite!

I think gloss black looks awesome, particularly when you colour code with gloss black mirror caps.

To be honest anthracite looks a bit lost on a red car. It doesn't stand up and contrast enough.

I would go silver, have a look at aparoons new wheels, silver on red really looks smart

Would look mint with a slightly lighter silver pescara
