Like the gunmetal colouring as it blends well with the car, don't think I would highlight my tyres though,personal preferences come in to play----Always good to see cared for calipers
Do like the Apex wheels, pity they are so hard to come by!

Good morning
Yes i have started a split opinion on the painted tyres, My problem is that i have done car shows for twenty years and when i started doing car shows painted tyres where cool, I think i must be living in the past but its a habit
As for the wheels i love them but they are the worst wheels i have ever seen for Corrosion i have ever seen. I have another reasonable set witch i dont know if i going to refurb (but they are not very bad with very good tyres)or sell.

In my Opinion, You Cant Beat a Nice Clean Old Fashion set of Gleaming Silver Alloys. The rest of the coloured stuff looks like Silver Wheels with some Brake Dust.

But they look good, nicely done job! (Silver would look Brilliant) but a matter of personal choice I guess.

I like it and I like the fact you've done the tyre aswell. Tint the windows and your car will be a mean looking machine!.

I really like it, I think you should carry on, get some vinyl graphics done. see below

Apologies for drawing on your lovely car, let me know if you wish it deleted.

What colour is that exactly?(on the wheels)

Departed 32016 · 15th July 2011, 16:26

I know they are chrome powerfols bullets but I don't think they suit it.

I like the green calipers but I think the writing on the sidewall looks tacky. I'm also not keen on the colour of the ZT V8 wheels and when our V8 has them redone I think we'll go for silver.

Just out of interest where did you have them done as you are quite local

Thanks

I kind of agree here,certain chrome parts suit the ZT,but mirror backs is an area that I'm uncertain.

I've seen this car now on several occasions,the last at Harewood house classic and vintage car meet,where the OP told me he was concerned about the original wheel refurbish.

Anyway I like the colour,but the tyre wall lettering..no
