Which wheel colour?

I've decided to splurge some money on having my wheels refurbished, but I'm uncertain what colour to choose. I was originally thinking of the original basic alloy colour. The refurbishers suggested shadow chrome, which looks good.

But all the pictures I can see in the refurbishers' gallery show shadow chrome with dark paintwork, so I'm concerned that it will look odd in combination with the titanium silver paintwork.

Can anyone offer any advice? A picture of shadow chrome wheels on a silver Z4 might be interesting.

This is what the car looks like with its OEM wheels.

I have two tone black chrome on my Zed, I'll try and post a pic or two .
 
I too wasn't sure so opted for "sparkle" still the nice original alloy in colour but when they catch the light they really pop but don't look odd if that makes sense. It's a difficult decision to make as such a big investment.

Sorry about the fella in the background, not sure who he is :roll:
 
Thanks for the pictures, Lynchy. Does the further-away car in the picture with the agricultural background have shadow chrome wheels? I ask because those wheels are somewhat more similar to mine than your 5-spoke ones.
 
I'm in the same boat as you. Will be getting my wheels done soon but not entirely sure what colour. Thinking of perhaps a dark bronze.
Anyone any good with photoshop? :)
 
Sorry for late reply, the car in the background is Machine Monkey's before he painted it . His wheels if I remember are diamond cut, not sure what colour the insides of the spokes are though .
 
Hi Walker this is mine with 107s in shadow chrome, Anthracite powdercoat with 3 coats of chrome over the top
