    Need Some Help Deciding on Wheel Color

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I am looking to pick up a set of VMR v713s, had a set on my old B7, loved them and havent seen anyone running around with them on the b8 yet. My car is Monsoon Grey, and I wanted to get everyones opinion on whether to go matte black, gunmetal or a custom powder coat color? I honestly was thinking to go with the v710s but it seems that is a pretty popular wheel and style...just trying to get outside the box a bit.

    For reference here is the v713 wheel:

    2005 Dolphin Grey USP

    2008 Ibis White S-Line A4 6mt, Stasis Exhaust (Gone)
    2010: S4, Ibis White, S-Tronic (Gone)
    2011 MKVI GTI 4 Door, Carbon, DSG (Gone)
    2012 S4, Monsoon Gray, 6MT (Gone)
    2014 S4, Glacier White - fully loaded (Gone)
    2019 S4, Glacier White - Prestige

    +1 on the standard colors. Although a custom color close to the "RS4 titanium" wheels would top the list for me. I run VMR gunmetal rims on Ibis and the titanium is nicer.

    I vote for Gunmetal on a monsoon. Matte black is too much and silver is ok, but not special.

    Gunmetal as a top pick, hyper silver as second. I agree with some of the others, matte black may not be the best for Monsoon.
