Jules, you're so hardcore, if you bought a dog, you'd chop its legs off just to match your car...
No matter where you go, there you are.

Re: which wheel colour?
I'm with Jonsey on that...I think with Daytona you dont want to go any darker than titan IMO.

Re: which wheel colour?
Agreed ... any darker any yes ... i think it starts to border on a bit naff looking.
Argh ... i am the worlds worst at making decisions .... think i'll see if i can offer up some sample wheels tomorrow morning and go from there
The company is called Mint Alloys ... its about 5 miles from Luton in Bedfordshire.

I agree on the tyres, they do seem to be very good indeed!

They look mint mate (pardon the pun)
I plan a wheel refurb later this year, i am also going darker too in the hope they will not show the brake dust so quick after washing these damn wheels

Re: which wheel colour?
They look good on your car and darker or silver cars for sure but would be pants on mine with Sprint Blue and silver trim. I went the other way with Hi-Power Chrome Silver, similar to BMW M wheels and well chuffed as they just sparkle a little more then OEM paint and match the mirrors and silver trim better.
