Silver or Gunmetal RS4s Rims on Silver TT?
So i'm planning on picking up a set of RS4 replicas for my TT, but I'm not sure if I should go for hypersilver or gunmetal. What do you guys think? Gunmetal rs4s are only going to be available on the TT-S(not our yet) hence the configurator pic.

Hypersilver


Gunmetal



I"m leaning toward gunmetal just for the uniqueness.

If your TT is silver, go with the Hypersilver...

My tt is the same color as the ones in the pics!(so should look identical)


They both look good. the hypersilver definitely looks cleaner, but the gunmetal is unique.

If your car was gunmetal, red or white, we'd probably say gunmetal.

Black, silver car = silver wheels

I actually love the clean look, different strokes for different folks!

But how about a spoiler that raises up at speed or by switch.(stock on all TTs)

I'm a fan of hyper silver. I must say though, I think either would look good on your car.
