Volk wheels question:
The color of the wheels on Hal_$4Shizzle's car is silver/anthricite. I assume this is the exact same color of wheel that Avalon is advertising in their group buy?
Also, which do you think would look better on a silver car: Light Silver or Gunmetal with Diamond Finish lip?

I've been pondering this myself and would love to see some pics/p'shops...
....using my imagination, I have so far concluded that either looks damn good. Myself, I'd probably go with silver, as it seems a little more low-key? Depends on the look you're going for.

The gunmetal center would look better.
Honestly, I don't think I'd want the silver Volks on any color S4. The dark centers look nice (and normally I'm pretty critical of dark wheels).

Better check to be sure... the Silver/Anthracites look darker on darker colors ie GatorAls and
ZoldMans Santorin S4s both have the same silver/anth wheel colors as me and they look darker there. I think these are both the same color in the 2 pics you pulled/posted.
I have seen the Gunmetals on an Imola and they look almost black in comparison to mine. Mine look darker under some conditions... personal pref on them I guess.

I really like the contrast of gunmetal centers and a polished lip on silver cars...gives a very
sporty look. I went through the same dilemma when I got my SSRs, and every time I look at my car I love the darker centers. I knew if I had gotten silver centers it would just be drab for that style of wheel.
