What is your opinion about chrome wheels against a yellow P5 -- i cant decide if its too much since the yellow is already bright --- or would a black or gunmetal center with poliched lip be better ?? thanks
 
I like the left ones. Black from far away looks like you have steel wheels with no hubcaps
 
thanks for the input -- i know its all about personall preference but sometimes an idea just needs a little direction -- thats where you guys/gals come in -- so thanks ---
i was thinking the same thing about the Bling ---
couple more ideas --

Black on yellow: sexy.

Chrome on yellow: OW, MY EYES! THE BLING!

Very nice -- i need to go to some shops and see if they can set a couple rims next to my car to better see what i might like -- thanks for the input :)
 
I like the gunmetals. The chrome are a little tacky. I think you should go with whatever matches your car the most. On a stock yellow, I still say gunmetal.
 
Hey man I have a Yellow P5 too and I had to make this decision also. I wanted to go Black but instead I went hyper black and they worked out pretty good. My advice is go with the black. That look is so badass on our cars.

(lol)

I agree the chrome might be too much bling, but it doesnt look bad.
I like the black with the lip too, but black + yellow = bumblebee
Why not a gunmetal with a polished lip? My friend alex has rims like that on his yellow p5 and they look great.
 
ok heres another question -- whats different about gunmetal and hyper black --

does one of them have a tint to it -- kinda like a bluish tint --

thanks for the help -- all i have to say is -- so many pictures of the same color but not all the same look -- makes it even harder to decide -- cause i cant tell what color it will really be ---


* oh -- is hypersilver shiny like chrome ??
and i think both these are hyperblack -- but i'll have to double check

Gunmetal is a darker "solid" grey .. the hyperblack usually has more silver in it -- kinda color shifts depending on the angle you look at it.
