Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 02-12-2012 Looking to get some steel wheels for my 5 door moonstone blue hdi, i want them to look good and stand out so it doesn't look trampy and scatty. What colours do people suggest? I've thought of silver or moonstone blue the same colour as the car so far but have no idea what would look best. Any suggestions and pics would be appreciated! RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Oil-burner - 02-12-2012 If they are just for winter wheels I'd just get some swallows or lazers tbh, they fetch nothing nowadays anyway! RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Midnightclub - 02-12-2012 Amusing how swallow alloys normally sell for less than steels haha! Oh how times have changed.. Back on topic, you could always go with something lairy like a kawasaki green? RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Oil-burner - 02-12-2012 Haha the scrap man doesn't even want swallows! You'll struggle to find colours that go well with manstain tbh, just stuck with black, anthracite and silver really. RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Eeyore - 02-12-2012 even just a crap pair of cyclones will look better than steels! Unless theyre banded. Really youd have to get brand new steels if you were going to paint them and wanted them to look mint. In my experience they are always rusty as fook would take a lot of prep to get a good finish! Steel Wheel Colours - kentiiboii - 02-12-2012 Best steel wheel would be 4x spare wheels from that cars that came with alloys as they're full circle no holes. As Simon says stick to black, anth and silver. If its just for winter id just brush paint them!! A few people say purple goes with moonstone. I found that pink looks move although I never got round to starting the pink on mine. Moonstone wheels would look too much! RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 02-12-2012 They're not for winter they're just to go on whenever, i've always liked the look of steels. I had a set of 15 inch banded steels on my previous car, my 106 in harvest moon beige and they looks absolutely mint, rusty as fudge when i got them but i prepared them well and they looked better than brand new. Just want to go for something different as cyclones are way too common now. I was thinking a set of 15/16 inch steels with low profile tyres and a decent colour would look mint and it's not often someone puts a nice set of steels on the 306 Steel Wheel Colours - kentiiboii - 02-12-2012 Ok depends what your after if you want them to stand out then bright but it doesn't go with moonstone. Black IMO doesn't work too boring. Silver looks good but has to be oem looking silver. Anthracite is best looking for moonstone. RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 02-12-2012 I was thinking anthracite too, that was an option but I'd want a quite light one not too dark, I think dark wheels look dirty haha. What are the best steel wheels with most dish that will fit a 306? RE: Steel Wheel Colours - samass - 02-12-2012 paint em white, white steels are win RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 02-12-2012 Aye, white steels do look the dogs charlies, just need to get some haha! Has anyone got pics of a 306 in moonstone on white wheels of any kind? It'd be great if they were steels but any wheels will do RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Silky - 12-12-2012 I'm in the same situation, want some steels to go on my White Rallye. Thinking either anthracite or white GTI6 steels RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 12-12-2012 I've decided to go with black but I'm properly preparing them so they look perfect. I see people just do pity full jobs of sanding and getting rid of rust and it's all uneven. Don't know who's car it is but on here there is a 5door moonstone with black banded steels and they look cool RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Dicky - 13-12-2012 Or harriers, I sold my harriers with decent tyres for £25 cos nobody wanted them RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 13-12-2012 I sold my swallows today for 60, more than I expected to get to be honest, money towards new tyres for my steels Steel Wheel Colours - Jonny b - 16-12-2012 This is what you want RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Bananalad - 16-12-2012 That s16 looks sweeeeeeet Steel Wheel Colours - Jonny b - 16-12-2012 Cheers fella it's my baby lol RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 16-12-2012 What inch are those badboys? Steel Wheel Colours - Jonny b - 16-12-2012 15's bud, don't know which ones they are though, think they are gti6 spares RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Kezzieboy - 17-12-2012 someone say steelies? RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 17-12-2012 I love the look of the white steelies and the gun metal grey ones. I've just gone for gloss black, worries when I get the tyres on they'll scuff them RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Kezzieboy - 17-12-2012 They will, they f*cking raped mine, thankfully they're just winter wheels. That reminds me, I need to respray them and get them fitted! RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Silky - 17-12-2012 Kezzie has GTI6 Steels, not sure what yours are from Jonny GTI6 steels have 14 holes in them RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Matt - 17-12-2012 I had 15" 406 steels on my moonstone. Black steels and then bright purple hubcaps. They were pretty win RE: Steel Wheel Colours - Pete - 17-12-2012 Blue No seriously, Anthracite suits moonstone a treat. RE: Steel Wheel Colours - aaron_one - 19-12-2012 I've just gone for plain gloss black, still need tyres, what size tyres are best for 15 inch partner steels? Steel Wheel Colours - Jonny b - 19-12-2012 195/50/15 is what I run
