Changed my mind re anthracite finish on wheels, having this instead!

I like it  :happy2:
its pretty close to OE finish just a bit more bling.
Biggest issues are a) is it hard wearing as the 25ths were baaad and b) given its powder coat can you touch in any 'scrapes' ?

was thinking today a dark car does need shiney wheels (bit like the inverse of black wheels on CW  :smiley:)

When are you collecting the rims?

Touch ups & scrapes would mean the wheel back to Aerocoat to be redone, but given there is no colour match for the original Pescara wheel & they also would sort any kerb scrapes at the same time, £60 is not too bad as the colour match would be spot on every time & a whole lot cheaper than an OEM replacement @ £380 per wheel with discount!.

I will always have the option of going to the anthracite colour for £200 the set, I will get through Winter and decide. :happy2:
