black

[DarkkstaR]

silver. black/gunmetal on white = not my style :)

[EVIL-AUDI]

Exactly. With you're color car I'd stick with a very nice clean silver.

[tigabalm]

whut about polished kinda like i had on my old wheels?dont think it would work, but the pearl white did look good with my old wheels...

wonder if anyone can p-shop polished avus'... right now prolly going to go with silver tho...

peace

I have gunmetal. But I think the standard silver stock S4 look would be best on a white car.

Here's a few pics of mine:

I don't know, but I think black painted S4 wheels in general would look bad, and they'd even look worse on a white A4.

Don't paint the black. IMO, black wheels on a pearl white car is not going to match. I would say silver or maybe paint them pearl white also, but i dunno.

[needforspd]

stick w/ the silver.
black i like on white japanese cars but havent dug the look on white euros.

we all have different opinions, i just think black powdercoated wheels would look mean on a white car, especially lowered.

hmmm i dunno know...

what to do...

i don't know......to me, dark/anthricite wheels look hot on white.

[pigliiit]

well ben, i think the super's would look good on any color car, but s4's, not a good match. IMO not the right style rim to go with the dark look with that color car. definately stick with silver.

[nizmosx]

yea i think gunmetal is a sick ass color and would look damn good on pearl white. my brother will be getting some colored wheels for his pearl a4. i would go with gunmetal, but polished is interesting me right now. i would like to see what it looks like.

[maxh2o]

I do like black, but in this case I'd go silver. Keep the classic look nice and clean!

[tigabalm]

well here is a pics with my polished stock wheels (was like this when i got the car):



but would the polish work with the S4's?

polish isn't making the cut
i would go with powdercoated white! IMHO

Wow, those we be very hard to keep clean.

[A4 in SC]

I'd go stock silver. Especially on pearl. If it was casablanca white, I'd probably go gunmetal, but not on pearl.

[MR VTEC]

SO! I aint clean'em!
HAHA!
But seriously i like white better than chrome!
Wax the rims before you mount them to make it harder for the dirt to settle

[AsianA408]

dude.. id rock those in a way to make em look like they have lip. gun metal on inside and a lil lipage on the ends.

[Numbersix]

Here they are in silver on a pearl car



...but given we're in the same city, I say go gunmetal

[snopyro]

i've never seen polished s4 wheels... anyone got a pic of one? how much would that cost to do and would it peel off or flake over time?

[audidood]

i would have to go with the stock color/finish. painting em black would just give them a no-hubcap look, but that's just my opinion. on the other hand, black wheels with polished lip is still tight, but since you have no lip, i'd go with silver.
