Why hate? It's all good. Reminds me of my first days as an Evom n00b. Ppl were hatin' on my SiR sticker.

Gunmetal. I stand by my rule of contrast. Light on dark, dark on light.

EDIT: Btw, they don't say "Spoon Sports". They say "Spoom Sports".



See?

Go with gunmetal. I think silver wheels on yellow cars don't look good.

There are many variations of the "dark grey" coloration on wheels!
1) black painted
2) hyper black
3) gunmetal
4) graphite
5) black opal
6) black powdercoat

You also have to factor in what other color(s) you're going with for your overall color scheme. If you're gonna have a CF hood/tails/wing, for example, I'd be going gunmetal all day long.

In fact, I'd still be going gunmetal regardless cuz I'm also fond of the contrast in colors. And on that note, how about a vote for hyperblack instead?

I prefer Gunmetal, but since Enkei RPM2 doesn't have Gunmetal, I'll take silver.

RPM2 no matter what!!
