What colour to paint the alloys

  1. I was thinking of painting the alloys, what does everyone think? Is it worth it?

  2. I actually like it as it is. If it was mine I'd be tempted to lower it slightly and stick some spacers on it. Its quiet refreshing seeing a black one that doesn't have black or anthracite coloured wheels.
     
  3. That looks pretty nice.
    I'm a fan of silver wheels, unfortunately my last two cars have had black!
     
  4. Thanks guys, I was thinking of just leaving it as it is as every other one has anthracite coloured wheels, although I do like them ha.
    What are we recommending for the Springs, lower it with Cooksport's?
     
  5. Si.

    Si.

    Have a look at my thread, mines the same as yours on cooksports :smile:
     
  6. I tell you what I've noticed. You don't tend to see many of the Megane sports on Silver wheels as most have been painted black or anthracite from the factory or by others. The silver wheels seem to lighten the paintwork and I like it. Stay as you are mate and keep them clean and it'll look amazing. Spend your money on some springs instead and reduce the arch gap.
     
  7. You know what guys, I think your correct. I'm going to keep them Silver and keep it a little different from the other Megane RS's :smile:
     
  8. I actually saw your thread the other week and it was your car that actually made me want a Black one!
     
  9. Just to throw another opinion into the mix, I really like this look:

    This is from Canky's project thread (hope he doesn't mind me using this pic as an example) They're dark anthracite and I quite fancy getting my wheels refurbed this colour on my black r26. I think they look just right against the black.
     
  10. they look nice matie
