Help me Choose: 949 6UL 17x8 Beryllium vs Charcoal vs Tungsten
Help me Choose. I have a series 10 FRS which has a cross between silver and a shade of light blue in different lights. I had my heart set on Beryllium but I am starting to second guess and I am leaning towards Charcoal now.

Beryllium is last on my list. I'd go with Charcoal or Tungsten personally. My car is white but my Enkei PF01s are a similar-ish design:

Do you have a good clear picture in day time of the wheel. Is it more black or lighter?

lighter color car usually look good with a dark color wheel without you picking the right color. So I vote for charcoal.
Beryllium looks pink to me.............but that's just me.......I 'm a color blind. >.> |

So it looks like:
Charcoal = matte/satin finish Beryllium = gloss metallic finish Tungsten = chrome finish I prefer gloss metallic, and I also like the hint of blue/cool gray the Beryllium has going on (very similar to the 860SE wheels I have), so that gets my vote. |

Thanks to this user's post I have decided to do Charcoal. It will go with my the lip and Spoiler that will have a carbon fiber overlay.
