Silver finish rims on a silver car.

Is that too much silver? Im going to be ordering DPE R07s. What do you guys think?

I'm not sure you can go wrong with silver rims on anything. Go for it.

Not very original, but always looks good.

FrankoQ · 07-21-2007, 06:40 AM

too conservative imo.

dawgdog · 07-21-2007, 07:29 AM

I prefer silver and think it is the best alternative.

They won't be silver that much. Once you drive around for a while, the brake dust will make them anthracite and they'll look much better.

Looks hot ... go for it

It makes my black diamond black.

I almost went silver BBS. I love silver/silver. Classic.

As long as you dont have the silver surfer look going on (mirror tints, clear tails and side markers, silver grill, silver window trim and say silver colored tires) it'll be fine

My last four cars have all been silver and i've had just about every wheel color combination from silver to gunmetal to gloss black to matte black, and for this car I will be going back to plain old silver. Why? Because it always gives a clean look and that's what i'm going for with this car. I thought about going with a titanium asphault finish or matte black, but at the end of the day it will never look as clean as silver. Just my opinion.

i went with brushed aluminum... always classy.

no disrespect to some, but black/dark rims are played out...

here's mine.

Cool, i actually went with 19' DPE R05 Variant S.

It will look like this but with silver where the white is.
