What colour goes well with........
« on: 01 October 2012, 22:29 »
LC3K or Canyon red if you will.

Basically i done the whole coilover, 18's, 4mo ARB set up but its not worked out too well in that for my requirements its a total inconvenience. Thus i will be going back to my original 16's which are Montreal 1's. (the 5 spoke ones) and i've decided i want to refurb and paint them up. As per title my car is canyon red and i can't decide on a colour that will work well with it for the wheels. Originally i wanted to go with LC7V or Blue anthracite but now i'm not so sure.

Any and all opinions will be welcomed  :grin:

Its not a bright red on my car though, more of a burgundy metallic, I have silver wheels on it now and they seem too bright for the car. So going white would be way too white for me! But thank you for taking time to reply

Yes your colour is almost the same as mine. Its difficult isn't it?

I'd always thought bout going for LC7V Blue anthracite, as i think its a colour thats just works with burgundy. Black has been done to death and i won't be going that direction, My mate reckons i should go lairy but again its not a colour like say silver that you can paint your wheels any colour and it goes, if that makes sense.
