Astro Black with Black or Grey Wheels
Does anyone have pictures of Astro Black MINIs with either black or grey wheels? I am debating between the to options.

I have a Astro Black 06 MCS with black ASA AR-1 with a machined lip. To
me it gives the best look and after two years I would not change them out.

On a side note: all your astro black's look much more black than ine usually does. For the most part, mine maintains the bluer side, but on occasion it will venture toward the darker side.

I agree that the Astro color usually has that blue tint. I actually went ahead and purchased some Gunmetal Rota Slipstreams with the polished lip. I will also post some pics for you all to see.

Anthracite 18's. I actually have them at the powdercoater right now getting done in white. To go with my theme.

Bump. I'm looking for some new wheels for my AB/White R56. Anyone else have black/grey wheels on their AB MINI's?
