[quote="djgritt, post: 2609548, member: 11479"]Unsure now I've seen the Bronze CHs. Not sure the colour would work with the Silver bodywork... will have to get a 'Shop done.


Well, done this. (Thanks Balling!)

May have changed my view a bit now...


Used these as the proposed change = BMW Sepang Bronze with Satin Lacquer...




Used this as the base image to be edited;





End Result (as an indication/example anyway);





I quite like it - thoughts?

Silver looks great on them, and I'm still considering that.

Anthracite is a bit over-done IMO, and can be just as bad as Black wheels if a darker shade is applied.

Bronze is an option, and the colour above with the Satin lacquer seems to give an Anthracite look in less light and the Bronze in direct light (judging by the pics in the thread where I found the wheel image anyway - http://m.vagoc.co.uk/vb/showthread.php?t=878&showall=1 )

IMO the standard 19's Diamond cut are probably still the best looking wheel on the vectra and astra VXR's.

Also prone to cracking. That's why I changed from the OE wheels in the first place really.
