Default Alloy refurb on 'teg...what colour?

Simple as. Pictures below, let me know what you think looks best.

Can't seem to start a poll so have to do this manually, alas!

Thanks very much,

Martin.

Standard


Steel / Titanium


Black (gloss / metallic)


Gold


Bronze


Charcoal (flat)

Standard or JDM white.

Bronze would only work for tuner wheels, ie the Rota fake Spugens.

Cheers guys. A completely mixed bag of responses (you all realise that it's not helping me make my mind up!!! )

Forgot to add...also have another set of alloys (from the old car) which I'm keeping standard. Does that change anyone's mind about this set...

With tyre wear rates etc on the DC2 I find it useful to have 2 sets of wheels both in the same colour, so my vote stays the same.

Well I'm down to three:-

Standard
Dark steel / gun metal
Metallic black (I'm thinking Starlight black here)

...essentially something subtle but shiny rather than boring matt...


Trouble is, I really would want to see the alternate colours in the flesh, but that'd cost...and I've just missed JAE where I'd have seen a whole rainbow of alloys...

All black is a bit YMCA...
