Darker grey suit many wheels, but the ellipsoids are best with oem silver, imo.

Cheers, I bought them off another forum member fully refurbed as he didn't like the colour against his silver car. I think they were classed as "anthracite" officially, but i'm not fancy so dark grey suits me.
E85. 2.5i SE. 2004. Sterling grey, anthracite 107s, black leather heated seats, hardtop, sound gen retrofit, matt black grills, stubby, zhp, cupholders retrofit, roof motor in boot.

Looking at the pictures on this thread, I personally wouldn't go any colour other than standard silver. Wheel colours seem to go in and out of fashion, most age the car prematurely and look poop when the novelty has worn thin. Silver on the other hand, always looks classy when clean.

I'm pleased with the result, they even 'blacked' the tyres...
I'll get some better pictures up soon

Looking good, my fav.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.
