Color ideas recommendations

Alos · 12-13-2019, 12:33 PM

Original wheels are 469M gloss black. New wheels are below. Likely will be interchanging between winters and summers. Going to paint brake calipers. Bouncing back and forth between colors. Wanted to know what others have done and some color recommendations?
Thanks in advance.
Currently running 22in matte bronze wheels as below.

The blue of the M big brake kit would work, and the larger caliper size helps, in more than one way, too.

Go with yellow or red

For mine I'm gonna go with an anodized gold look but with your bronze wheels I think red would look nice

Is your rotor 15.6 inches? Can not find it at ECS. Do you have the link?

EBC discontinued the rotors all together so probably not available anymore
