So, I stumbled upon one of MB's pictures (Sorry MB!).




Opinions? MB's alloys look like a very light bronze effect. I never thought Moonrock would be so hard to please!

Sounds like you dont fancy a brighter colour. Have a search for ninebolts' S2000 - he has smoked chrome CE28n's and they look really good.

Anthracite on a Moonrock - without a doubt!

I saw someone's on here, can't remember who, it suits the car perfectly on the AP2 V1 rims.

Anthracite is an interesting colour. Wouldn't that match the paintwork a little too much though?

Thanks again for all the replies so far, it helping me a lot.

To me that'll just look like you tried to match the cars colour and failed

I think the only thing that looks nice on moonrock is bright silver or black

Always used to joke when my silver wheels were covered in brake dust that they were actually anthracite.

I still feel bronze/gold/copper colours look great, but they definitely look modded rather than OEM then and that might be a detractor.
