I love bronze as a color, you made a great choice. I wish I had went bronze on the wheels, but picked anthracite instead. I did do bronze on the calipers though, similar in color to what you picked.

For sure. As soon i get them back I’ll make some decisions. This winter so far has come in like a lamb. I’m sure February and March will bitch slap us though.

+1 on the caliper color ! What color is that? If I had a car color that would work I'd paint my wheels with that color plus shiney as I like the chrome and shiney old school look. I just don't think a silver car can pull it off. Had the maroon IROC back in the day with those and most colors I thought looked good with that wheel even white, most striking on dark or black cars. I know I know, the "style" is solid or dark wheels for years now.

That looks so good.. Was honestly thinking of powdercoating my zl1 calipers a very similar color. I think it would look killer with the black and white combo i have going.

I think that color combo would be sick af, but I am a very basic man when it comes to color palate.

Keeping the machined faces, like how the IROC wheel is, would look very clean.

Yeah that's a much more updated look. I'd love to see with inserts the color you chose plus black or the way your picture shows with your chosen color.

I as well think that color would look great with the color combo you have now. Would really set off the wheels nicely.

Love that bronze on the calipers! I thought about going this route if i don't settle on a set of bronze rims by next year. I currently have the gloss black brembo calipers.
