silver or grey?
I am about to get my 20 RRS wheels refurbed and i am contemplating whether or not to do them in the same colour or go for something darker like a gunmetal grey?
What do you guys think?

Looking a bit longer... I think I'd leave them silver.
But then I'm a fan of the "gay" Landmark wheel

I'd keep them silver, to avoid the DIY hammerrite look

Also, if you do nick a kerb with a dark wheel, it can look so much worse.

^^ I'm pretty sure Marsie is a bloke, and as well know, men DON'T nick kerbs with wheels. Women do that!
But I do agree, I think the silver looks best on that colour D3!2014 D4 XS

Any damage to my wheels has been sustained during off roading. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! 2014 D4 XS
