rs8 wheels
« on: 28 March 2014, 18:12 »
Picking up some rs8 wheels tomorrow which are black and have good tyres, ive got standard montreals on my mk4 at the moment so i think going from standard silver to black will look too strange
Dunno what colour to do these wheels!
Ive seen a few that look really polished like this - what is that paint

Sorry, I was being pedantic. They will be S8 wheels, there is currently no such car as an RS8

The ones in the pic are not painted they are diamond polished with is expensive to have done. I have a set of S8 alloys on my golf which are polished but they are also kerbed so they will be powder coated soon as its cheaper to have done
