Need Help Choosing a finish for wheels!!!!!!!!
Hey guys,
I have a local customer here. We have decided to roll with a set of Breden CO1's from Breden Forged. This is usually my specialty but this car has me completely stumped and I can't think of a good combo to go with. Below is a picture of the car and what the customer DOES NOT WANT.
- No Chrome Anywhere
- No black on outer or center (open to black inners)
-No Brushed anywhere unless we can get it to work with dark colors like silver, grey, charcoal etc.
PLEASE POST PICS OF YOUR CAR WITH WHEELS ON IT THAT HAVE A SIMILAR COLOR TO THIS ONE.
Thanks in advance!

I am refinishing my 547r HRE's, ( similar design) I will be painting my face of the wheels color mathced grey- in my case flint gray and leaving the windows polished alum- I will also try to get my rivets color matched with the face it gives the wheel the bling factor when the wheel rolls,
leaving the lip polished alum

How about something like this? I had these wheels on my silver IS.
So black center cap, gunmetal rim, and polished lip.
Obviously, these are Volk Racing so I don't think they make the C63 configuration but hopefully the picture of it kinda gives you a clue.
here the picture on the car.

Wheel Finish
I was thinking of getting those exact wheels...I would go with Brushed finish and rivets gun metal colour.
I live in Canada, how much would a set of 19" CO1's set me back?

Yeah we were thinking about brushed somewhere in there but I think we are going to do color matched centers black inners and gloss or matte silver on the lip which would match the silver thats on the calipers. What do you guys think?
