Wheel color

[Justin0122]

What wheel colors do you guys think look best for a CSG GTI?

Mine's on almost-color-matched Gunmetal EKM3's. You can only tell the difference in very specific light conditions. I get tons of compliments. I also like it a lot

I've been trying to find a color that fits with it perfect, still can't find one

I've been torn between black and gunmetal grey

I feel like black isn't the color for csg

Some wheels look good in black on CSG and some wheels would look better in a different color. VMR V703 wheels are on back order and hopefully they produce them soon because that's the wheels I wanna get

CSG and darker colors need contrast. Black wheels look like black holes IMO.

Silver/Hyper Silver ftw.

Bronze does look really good, the wheels i like either come in hyper silver, gunmetal grey, and black

is csg black with the metal flake?

No, that's DBP = Deep Black Pearl

CSG = Carbon Steel Gray. It's a dark gray with metallic in it

DBP

CSG

I put gunmetal vmr wheels on mine and it seems off. I thought the bright / hyper / machines silvers looked too bright in pictures so I didn't go that route. Buuuut... I think bright is actually the way to go on this car. In theory, I also thought neuspeeds hyper black would look great on this car... But I have since changed my mind. The stock contrast looks good. I don't mind the stock wheels either, but I needed a wider / lighter wheel with a little more offset.

I like silver or hyper black for the contrast.
There are some pics of a CSG with hyper black RSe10s somewhere on this board and/or Vortex.

I agree with this, flat black wheels looks really good on blue and red cars. I like metallic looking wheels on dark grey or black cars. I personally really like the look of the stock GTI wheels on CSG GTI's, downside being the weight.

Problem with this to me is the CSG looks very different in different lighting. So IMO, pics vs reality don't necessarily correspond.
