Turiniiiiiiiiiiiiis

[Juhu_United]

Finally put on my turini's. They're a bit knackered up close but I got them cheap so I can't really complain. The question is, what colour do I get them refurbed in? I can't tell if I like the black on black yet or if I should get them done in the proper speedline anthracite. What do people think?

 

[Ben]

Silver I'd say, nice and fresh.

 

[aucky]

Anthracite or Silver.

 

[cb10]

Anthracite and some tyre shine.

 

[Knuckles]

Anthracite or Silver.

This.


and some tyre shine

 

[VIICarCare]

Just doesnt look right. Maybe put some Tyre shine on then another piccy

 

[jesus]

They look pap in black. Go silver

 

[Gally]

Anthracite and some tyre shine.

Bingo! Black looks good with Anthracite. Silver doesn't work aswell

 

[Mr Plums]

Id go shadow chrome

 

[JAMason]

OEM silver every time for me! (And some tyre shine! lol)

 

[James Mk1]

Anthracite does look very nice on BG, the colours seem to compliment each other well imo, but after seeing many different coloured 1*2's with plain and simple silver turinis, I'd definitely go for silver as it's so fresh looking.

 

[Inequality Street]

I have black turini's on my black 172, I personally don't like them black, but mines a cheap runabout so wont be changing lol

Nice Fiesta.

 

[c4pob]

Silver. You lose the detail of the wheel if black.

 

[BGEarles]

Anthracite is a good shout!

 

[Rubicon_]

Silver is much fresher.

Black on black would probably work but you need to keep in top of the tyre shine!

Put some on and upload another photo

 

[BREMBO]

Looks good but I also prefer silver

whats the deal with the fiesta? Looks like it's been sitting there a while

 

[Fletcher]

Silver all day.

 

[@Spoonie]

Ruined.

 

[ColinG]

Another vote for silver here.

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Silver

Yeah fair enough with the tyre shine. The tyres were included and had clearly been sitting in a dusty garage or something for a while, but they're fairly new ad08's so I thought it was worth it...
I will clean them up on tuesday back at work, we have the autoglym stuff which is pretty good and upload another picture.
I agree though, the more I look at them the more I think it looks like a cheap 1.2 with some aftermarket hubcaps painted black...

And with the sexy ass fiesta... It's my girlfriends grandads old car who sadly passed away a few years ago and they have kept the car because it is worth more to them for sentimental reasons than it is to a scrap yard! Could do with a clean though...

RIGHT,

Sorry its so late but it has been a pretty busy week. My work organised a small private rally around Greece for our clients, so we have had about 20 cars (from a Ferrari 275gtb to a mclaren F1) to prep. Busy busy!

Here are the wheels before up close, and as you can see they definitely need a refurb:

And here they are on the car: (before tyre shine)

And after:

Here it is from the back:

Am very tempted now to just keep them in black. I think it looks really good, especially if I paint the brake callipers to set them off, either yellow or red.

And here's a McLaren F1

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Anthra, end thread!

 

[James28]

Silver. Where on earth did you see that f1?

 

[incy-spider]

That McLaren!!!!!!!!!

 

[Juhu_United]

At work

 

[Sam]

Silver is the way forward on that. Would look nice and fresh.

 

[karol_SVK]

I vote for silver too.

Had them white on my black 172 and it was better than black, but i went for silver.

white:

No pohotos of silver wheels mounted, they still in the garage (i wish i had gone for a bit lighter)

 

[sladen1720]

Is that the Mclaren someone spent 6.2m on?
