He asked what wheel color choices are out there for silver GS's. I felt compelled to answer since I own a silver Aristo. Yet, the one that I "THINK" in my opinion would look best on a silver GS is not up there on the poll, that's why I refrained from answering. Then he asked why no one was replying to his poll, so I just replied back with the reason why I didn't reply. Was that wrong?

Again, not starting any trouble......

You're fine. I know what you mean. When I put up the poll I only thought of those. Your answer was noted. Thanks for the input. End of story.

I have a 98 GS, Alpine Silver. I recently transferred my Mille Miglia Uno 18's from my gold 93GS to the 98. The finish is called bright silver. I did not know if the two different color "silvers" would look good, but after the install, it is a beautiful combination. Sorry, I can't vote either!

As many of you know, I just moved away from the silver and went gun metal. Reason being - silver is sooo common and I needed a change. I love the gunmetal / polished lip look - aggressive, yet classy.

But seriously, you can't beat polished metal on mirror lips on silver GS's!!!



The color just spills over so nicely from the body to the wheels......

you should also take in to consideration the wheel design when deciding a color. Some colors can look good on a particular design while being so-so on another design.

I like the diamond cut look with the polished lip. Here is a pic of my car if it helps. I think its all bout the style you pick imo.

always been a die hard fan of machine polish with a nice lip. But you must give it to Synergy, those are nice wheels with sweet drop.
