Black look rubish. Silver also look rubish and make it look like you have a poverty spec 182. Anthracite look the best and theres a reason people say this, it isnt because they are "sheep" its because they simply, look the best colour on a black 182.

I am leaning towards anthracite at the moment but not having seen it in person i cant make my mind up to go slightly darker than the standard anthracite or not.

​Maybe something along the lines of BMW sparkling grey?

That looks a nice colour, i think for black / bg a shade of anthracite/grey is the only way to go.

Ive decided on something along the lines of rover stone grey which is just a tiny bit darker than the original anthracite i think.
Im liking the black diamonds on the center caps like in the first pic i put up so ill try that out on a spare one i have lying around.

​Now to play the waiting game and hope they look good.

I think if you had different wheels then silver would good with BG. With the standard wheels anthracite is defo the best option IMO.

Vote for anthracit.
​I have a BG too....going to color my wheels to anthracit as well. Had white wheels when got my 172, have black OZ now , the wheels get lost simply thete, but the Turinis are goint for Anthracite as soon as I have some time.

I'm pretty sure that top one with the anthracite wheels is mine : )

Yep thats yours alright. Looks really smart. I think the previous owner said it was some kind of anthracite / bronze power coat he picked but didn't know the name of it.

Bit of a set back for me though. Went to take off the wheels earlier today. f**king locking wheel nut snapped :dapprove:
