Hey guys I got my ssv wheels back and fitted them up today tell me what you think........ The sun is hiding so they look a little darker in the photo than they really are........

Do you like it?

me personally I think some rims should remain the standard color they come in, and I feel the SSV rims and VE Clubsport rims are really beautiful in the original form...just my thoughts

SSV's finish would have compliment your ute too..

They look fine all the same...:goodjob:

Yeah I reckon it looks mean...... I spos I could have been like everyone else and run the standard colour but then Id find it hard to choose which car to drive as the Vy SS has the same wheels in the standard colour......

Looks really good i reckon, something different considering how common the SSV wheels are now.

If they were my rims i would use black nut caps instead of the chrome ones, the black ones would blend in with the centre cap better.

Looks good , could you tell me the colour you used. Did they just rub down the rims and paint over the old paint or did they blast back to metal. Are they painted or powder coated. Thanks Arron

The black caps would be a good idea thanks for the tip and the positive comments guys........ They were rubbed by myself and sprayed over the top of the old, same as if you were to paint a car.......... The colour is from the new HONDA EURO range........ Sprayed in 2 pak......

Mate, I reckon it looks awesome. Im glad you didnt go black.

I agree with the above though, the holden wheels look awesome in their original colour but this one is unique, love it.

Whats the actual colour called?
