    Do what you like don't ask other people what color they'd do at the end of the day the color had to make you and you only happy.

        The problem with gunmetal, IMO, is that it looks like a poor attempt at matching the car's paint color. Brighter is better, silver looks fantastic on PPM cars, as does chrome/polished. White is too much maintenance, and according to everyone when I asked 4 months ago, Bronze would look like ****. haha

        I'm going with a silver similar to the picture posted by Jim in post #9, I think that would look amazing. Just enough contrast to really make the wheels stand out.

            i would go with a bright color.. nothing car.. like the pic of that wheel posted above.. needs to kind of pop out towards you
            x2, x3, and x4....

            If I were to do it again, I wouldnt. I would have held out for a chrome set like I always wanted, or went with silver. If a good deal comes up on a chrome set the white ones will be gone before you know it. I LITERALLY have to clean them once a day if I DD the car. Just putting around town for work and stuff leaves them absolutely DISGUSTING!

              I've seen some pretty respectable chrome-like powdercoats, and that is how I will have my wheels redone when my chrome finally peels off all of them. It'd be very sharp with your car.

                This car was at the meet and greet. I would assume it is a members. I love black chrome but I wonder what it would look like on my car. It would be pretty sweet to swap wheels with him just to see. How much does it cost and where can I get it done?

                      I talked to him but he didn't seem to know much about them. He said he go them done a long time ago. He said he had them done through belle tire. I'm assuming belle tire outsourced them. He also didn't remember what it cost.

                      I'm curious on the longevity though, like if the shine would actually be shinny or if it would stain. If be curious to see pics of people tha have had it done for awhile. Also curious on the price difference between them. Seems the powder would out last the chrome but I bet the chrome looks better for longer. If that makes sense...

                        agree'd it would look badass... i know a few guys who used it on their snowmobiles and have had no problems with it
