Rota P45F Wheels on Black Mica MS3

Any thoughts on what these wheels would look like on a Black Mica MS3? I'm not too good at imagining things. Haha.

In 18" I'm guessing? They're pretty nice wheels, nice and simple. What finish is that, is it gunmetal or a really dark bronze?Either way would look great on a black car.

I can photoshop them on for you if you have a side shot of your car.

Yeah in 18 and gunmetal. I thought they would look pretty good but figured I'd get other opinions considering I can't imagine it too well. I'm going to try to find a pic of an MS3 and post it up for you J-Protege. I don't have one right now but I'm sure there's one somewhere on the internet. Haha.

These are the only ones I have. I haven't had a chance to get one during the day yet. Just took the top one to put up here and took the other about a week ago. If you need one in the day time let me know and I'll try to snap one at work tomorrow and get it on here.

i think they'd look splended. just dont go with all black, keep it a shade lighter like the gunmetal or the dark bronze. it'll give it enough contrast to stick out, yet will still remain stealthy looking.

I am seriously considering a set of the P45Fs in full Royal Sports Bronze (they have a polished lip) for my Speed6. MY gf hates the fact I have bronze rims on the Protege, and I am a little worried that it might be too dark for my Black Cherry Mica Speed (I do think the polished rim will set it off enough). Nice rims though.

As for getting a Photoshop done, you need a daytime picture if you really want to be able to tell how it will look. Some guys are pretty good with the program, but there is only so much it can do.

I thought about going with the OZ Crono HT's in the Gold Painted finish but I don't know how that would look either. I put em on the car at tirerack.com and I thought they looked really nice in the pic but everyone I show it to thinks it looks terrible. I'm still undecided on exactly which one would be better but I'll try to get a daytime pic and get it up here so I can compare these to the OZ's.
