Default Help me out with wheel color for SGM 350

I've been looking all over and I can't decide on a wheel color for my SGM 350. Can you guys give your opinion? In terms of a style/brand, I seem to be drawn to the Volk GT-7. Wadda think.
Thanks in advance.

I'm in the same boat as you, but IMO anything, but chrome, gold, or black would be fine.

I agree with you!

I'm also looking for a nice set for my SGM IS-350.

Thinking of Brushed Aluminum finish with BIG LIP!

I concur, I do not know what color to choose on my SGM. I don't want gun metal because that would be overkill on the gray and no chrome either. I think the Volk Mecury Silver would look nice or even the Hyper Black would look decent. Choices...

Been looking to find a good picture of Volk Mercury Silver on a car. No luck. But I agree, sounds good.

I believe the Volk Progressiv ME that glilly has on his car are Mercury Silver.

Should I bite the bullet and do SGM w/ Bronze since I've always been a fan of Bronze? But it does take away from the "classy-ness" of the 2G IS.

For a SGM IS350, I would pick a brush aluminium wheel.

I have silver, it looks good. I was thinking of painting it stock color but leave the lip polished silver. But yeah, unless I had more of an aggressive car, it wouldn't look good. If say I had the INGS kit with that kind of a setup on the wheels, then I think it'll look good but not when my car looks pretty stock.

Silver with polished lip!
