white wheels will make the car look to soft,
black or dark will make it look agressive!!! thats the look the car needs

That car deserves some black wheels 
Good going on the paint, by the looks of things this appears to be your best one yet Nice work, love it

no its not standard colour, its just ford radient red which is normal boring bright red then just went over with 3 coats of laquer with some shimmering gold pearl added, and hey presto!!!!
just been outside working on the car, car is jacked up and in the air, wheels off and rubbed down, painted the mesh black, managed to get the front lights out also ready to smoke them all in next few days!! also painted the brakes whilst i was at it!

UPDATE, been a busy boy this morning!!!
masked up the wheels, sprayed the whole wheel with moondust metalic silver, then sprayed inbetween the spokes with 1 coat of flip paint cos i had it handing around her from ages ago, cant even c it really!
then sprayed just the spokes in jet black, then waited to dry then went over the whole wheels with laquer with some pearl sparkle in just to c wot its like, just like very fine flakes really, then topped it off with another coat of laquer!!!
here are the pics:-
pic of the car in the air with black mesh now:-
pic of inside arches and brakes painted black also:-
pics of the lights with a little smoke in them:-
not a bad mornings work i think!
cant wait to get wheels back on the car, got to do some work on a mates clio now tho!!!
wot u think??

Wheels look very good - better than full black imo as it is something a bit different.
Smoked side repeaters need to be proper blakc tho imo. Lights look spot on though
