With my Zed's impending visit to the body-shop later this month, I am toying with a couple of small visual changes.... One being the wheels.

 

Could someone please have a go at photo-shopping the centre spokes of my wheels to gloss black? I want to retain the polished rims though..... Thanks!

Gunmetal grey: yes.

 

Gloss black: no!! Not a fan of black wheels (even partially black wheels) in the slightest...

Thanks Si - I kind of concur, seeing as I prefer "normal" silver wheels.... I'm just thinking out loud at the moment...:wink:

 

I was considering doing the moustache gloss black - along with the front and rear roof bars - so wondered about having the wheels painted to match.

Give me (edit tomorrow :|), though black is an absolute a$$ to photoshop from polished so do not expect brilliant results.

That looks about 400xs better

I'd say leave them as they are, just get them blasted and powder coated silver. It'll be a much sharper image.

Thanks Lee - that's not a bad look TBH...

 

...But I think the Simons have a point too..:cool:

Go for it Richard, personally i always think black wheels give an aggressive look but don't go black, happy medium for me - you've seen my evoque wheels...get them done the same or very similar :cool3:.

To me black wheels just look like wheels that need a good clean Richard. Keep them silver imo.

They don't look bad black, better than I thought they would, but it's another vote for silver from me.

Yep i have to agree with this..

If you paint your wheels black I’m leaving the club and joining a club for country dancing.

Although I like to be helpful so I’ve done your wheels in black for you:

That's just what I am thinking - they don't look bad at all; but after cleaning the Zed today, plain silver looks just right...:cool:

PMSL - and at your black wheels photoshop....:lol:

 

But this thread has served its purpose. I got to see how they might look in black - and hear everyone else's thoughts - and it helped me reach a decision....

 

 

 

 

 

......Pink wheels it is....:biggrin:

 

 

 

 

....Joking - I'll be sticking with silver....:wink:

Why don't you try same blue colour as the car or one shade darker

Interesting thought - but I'm not a fan of body-colour wheels...... Sorry mate!
