And here is basically the same wheel in gunmetal, polished lip. (way more aggressive though)









Don't mean to flaunt but those are the only pictures I have with those gunmetal volks

....i've basically had every combo, black on chrome, black on silver, black on black, black on gold, black on gunmetal.

19x8.5 +22 w/ 245/35-19 which was replaced to 215/35-19 as of yesterday. I'll have updated pics. I was rubbing like crazy with those tires but with the 215s i'm as smooth as butter

19x9.5 +22 w/ 225/35-19

IMO, leave the gold wheels to the Subies and Bandit or Turbo Trans-Ams.

you checked out the Cars and Coffee Charlotte thread in the Photo Gallery? My NBP has bronze, little less contrast than the gold but still looks good!

i wanna see some work vs-xx on an NBP, anyone have any or photoshop? I'm looking for a sporty look and i can't debate over gold/black/gunmetal/bronze. Not really into the VIP look although it might look nice with the right setup.

The all gold doesn't look too great for me, but the gunmetal looks more fitting.
