    Thinking about getting my tatty wheels coated, do I just stick with the silver or go with chrome black?

    Just looking for some ideas guys

    We are silver folks, but a couple of others have gone with a grey chrome effect, sort of "silver grey" which suits some body colours. Jim M

    Thanks Jim, my mcs is black, I was thinking the chrome black might be a good contrast with it not being full black, more of a smoke chrome

    With Black paint, I like the silver gloss finish. Think the Black with Black would be real "gangsta"!

    That’s what I was thinking, not the biggest fan of all out black,, the murdered out look doesn’t do anything for me tbh, I can check with the guys, probably keep to the silver tho
