Thoughts on color...

Got these vossen wheels 20x9 20x10.5 in a deal. Just wanted opinions on the color. Was going to powdercoat matte bronze but couple of ppl like this color also. My car is Singapore grey and please ignore the tires. Won't be using anything like that.

I agree with bronze not liking that on SG. Also looks like they could use a refinishing

If should match with SG nicely however not my color. If I was going for some color and had SH. I'd go with a satin red or black

I think bronze or black would look good; put the blue on your call and see how it looks. Go from there. ...

Just a few facts about those wheels...

They are older than your car.
They weigh much more than your stock wheels
They are weaker than your stock wheels
They are discontinued.
So once you crack one, they're worthless.

And a few alternative facts...

They won't fit.
They were probably already cracked and repaired.
You will spend more money getting them refinished than what they're worth.


- Sorry if I came off negative, just sharing what I learned at cost of other's mistakes, and selling Vossen wheels since 2009.
