23" Alloy wheels colour options

I am looking for opinions. I recently purchased a new set of 23" alloys and felt bright silver was a little too bright so tried satin black, just used plasti dip to see what it would look like having done it, looked as though all the definition in the wheels was lost so pressured washed it off! Feel they need something other than bright silver but that is far better than the black. Original set of wheels were satin black but not concave like these versions so they picked up light better and seemed to show definition.

If anyone has any pictures for comparison that would be really useful.

Thanks

Nick

By going black, the design of the wheels are lost. It's just a black blob. Personally, I would go silver to accentuate the design. How about Gloss black with polished inserts as an alternative

I am not really a fan of having more than one colour on a wheel. So coloured inners with a diamond cut face isn't really my thing. I was like Damon suggested considering white but felt that might be a little too far.


Plasti dip has been removed. I do have several cans of good quality graphite grey but think I will leave silver for a while.
