Specfically for split rim bolts on a set of expensive wheels.
Dont have any specific pics, but these are the range of colours you can achieve.

Maybe for a MAD american "pimp my ride" style car.... It'll be ok. But other than that, nope.

Would be quite cool, I've not seen anyone do anything other than shiny silver, gold or black.

sounds like a plan to me,
black centre BBS's with any of the bright coloured bolts could look awesome

thats what im thinking.
THey would have gloss black centres with stainless steel outer lips and coloured bolts of some description.
I would only choose one of those colours a subtle one at that

yeah, but these don't
I think it works on a dark car. If you had light paintwork and matched the centres, it'd look shit, but a deep, dark colour would look great IMO.

I had some gold anodized bolts for my cam cover of my old XE which looked nice, but never on wheels.
I think those colours are too subtle to really be noticed. Should go for a deeper more lustrous kind of affair.
