My wheels are now diamond silver finish and I am thinking of changing them to gloss black or titanium finish. Which would you prefer...stay with diamond silver or change to titanium or gloss black? Thanks a lot for your ideas! adrian

Looks amazing the way it is.

I'm not a big fan if black wheels. It hides the spoke the design if the wheels.

Those wheels look perfect on there. Titanium would top it off. Nicely done.

They look amazing the way they are. You could just buy two sets and have two different colors

IMO it will match perfectly if you have the standard side marker and grille, this color pulls off very well.

to show a little bit classy upgrade
PS. Please Leave it like that!
is that Ri-D / FI , so rear is 11 wide?

These are FI wheels...front is 9.5 and rear is 10.25

Ok...I also like these silver finished wheels a lot...so I leave it like it is!

Maybe I should change the side markers and front grill to these black ones...to make the car look a bit more racy...a good idea?

Another pic at the race track...

Wow looks great. If not silver then titanium, but really looks great the way it is.

What suspension are you running on? And how much of a drop?
