Ok ive got Porsche Design 90's 16x7" front & 16x8" rear.....I was going to polish them but it seems too much work to do & maintain them

So I was thinking get them painted/powdercoated instead

This is how they will look:







*Pic's nicked from some VW forum

Now im interested in your opinions on what colour to get them done

Silver

White

Black

Anthracite

Grey

Something different....

Cheers

Small problem - the lip is a bit damaged one one & will need a repair...think polishing is totally out the question!!

Anthracite, what type of look are you going for with the car? Polished would be a bit blingy if you wanted to go for a fas troad car look.

I'd say polished but you cant have that done as you say the wheels are damaged

Spray them a really high power silver.

You still interested in the adaptors?
