I'm considering going with a set of sparco assetto gara rims on my DS R56 MCS I was wondering what you guys think would look better the matte graphite silver




OR
Black Painted


I cant decide

 

What color is the car?

 

Appears it's Dark Silver.

What color are the roof/mirrors ? If they're black, go with the black wheels.

 

The graphite silver looks like a faded black wheel. I say go with the black.

 

The roof and mirrors are black

 

I say get another color. It is just going to disappear into the wheel wells and you won't be able to tell you have wheels. Black and the such are over played.

 

I was thinking about gold or bronze but I think I would get tired of it after awhile

 

Porthos makes a good point. I never have been a huge fan of black wheels for that reason. Have you considered black with a silver rim or a wheel that is both black and silver ?

Not sure I would introduce a third color on your MINI by getting another color wheel unless you have other trim pieces in a third color.

 

Really getting any other color wouldn't change anything if you would get tired of gold or bronze the same could happen with black. That is why it is fun to change it up every once in awhile.

 

I've got a set of silver Minilites for winter but recently picked up a set of OZ engineered Sparco Assetto Gara (translates to "Competition Trim") wheels in matte black from Tire Rack. Their open rib design really shows of the red JCW calipers . . .but they do tend to fade into the wheel wells.

 

Matt graphite with a DS/B MINI looks good, that's what we have for our track wheels. It'd be the colour I'd opt for again given the choice.
