Default What wheelcolour ??

I was at a rimstore today to take a look but they had so many different looks and style. What will be a good combo for my MPP 2GS??




Today i just putted these in front of the mounted wheels to take a look how this would look.
20" Leon Hardirrit polised.


19" Privat. Flat Gun Metal.

I would go with something like the gunmetal one, but that's because I don't like polished/chrome wheels.

It's up to you. As long as you're pleased with it, it's cool.

Are you asking for comparison of the 2 wheels u posted or colors? I like polished look but that just me, your color you can definitely pull of a darker wheel but to create contrast a polished, or silver wheel would look much better. However if you are asking if you should purchase Leon Hardritt's or Privats, the answer is simple the privats are a cast 1 piece wheel, the leons are forged 3 piece wheels. Quality on the leons are much better thus why they are more expensive.

Between the two options, I'd probably go with the first one...

It's just for the colour.

I was also thinkin of black wheel with machined front and a chrome lip. Just like the wheels that are under the car right now. The size i was thinkin of is 19" and hopefully in the right offsets.
