another vote for OEM silver on 107s. they're the best looking wheel, need to be OEM silver to look best.

I bought the wheels from simon Ireland and he had them refurbed before I picked them up,so not sure who did them for him ,he,s based in Lincoln.
That would explain the grey :lol:
He supplied mine but two are more grey (like yours) than the other two, which have more silver in them. Think he's a bit hit and miss when it comes to colour matching.
:D personally i wouldnt have picked the grey but i wanted the wheels and they were freshly refurbed.
I would have gone for more silver but at least all four are the same colour.

The 107 look like a Art-deco version of the Classic Alfa Romeo horse shoe wheel which bothers me from certain angles, though I agree the lighter colours generally suit the wheels more because you loose the depth in tone. I think I am historically a Alfa man at heart so this might make me bias.

I think I prefer the 202, they balance the crisp lines with the discreet curves better which reflects the car more.

The do have more than a whiff of Alfa horseshoe to them. For me the 202's look a little too squared off but agree, for me the seem best in lighter colours to show those curves off (e.g. OEM BMW / Deutsche Silver).
