Orange FT86 + Gunmetal Wheels

Hey all.

I'm looking to get a new set of wheels and was eager to get some 57Xtreme in black. However they are not easy to come by in Denmark.

I was offered a good deal on some brand new Rota PWR (18x8.5) in Gunmetal (Image), however I don't have any clue how the Orange (Hot Lava) will look with Gunmetal wheels.

What do you guys think?
...And please post any images of Orange FT86's with Gunmetal wheels

Hot lava .. to my taste imho goes best with white or bronze. Then by gunmetal or silver, or even both of them as in stock wheel. I'd leave black and misc. non standard colors like red/green/blue as dead last.

A search will yield results if you actually look. All I did was look in google images.



Not really gunmetal, but still looks good...








I just wanted to add this one cause it looks badass......

I'm getting a Hot Lava tomorrow, i think the Enkei SBC finish looks great on it. I also like something with a polished lip or machined face. I think just a plain gunmetal wheel doesn't pop enough for the hot lava personally.
