Default Wheel choice on a silverslow!

Help!

I'm really struggling to decide what wheels to put on my 01 silverstone silver S2000!

I think dark bronze would suit, so far I've come across rota torques and fighters, which look OK but havn't blown my mind.


Would love to see pics of your silver S2000s with after market wheels for inspiration, and/or any suggestions!

I'm after 17"s in relatively "sensible" offsets, just don't want to screw up the handling


Thanks for any suggestions!

URRR! No to Bronze !
A mate of mine has some cracking gunmetal wheels on his, they tranformed the look of his car - much to my surprise!
I will try to remember to take a pic tomorrow.

Whats wrong with bronze? One of the best-suited wheels for silver s2000 i've seen thus far is this:

+1 for gunmetal, got some OEM gunmetal wheels on mine, though admittedly my car is an MCB and not silver.
