I don't think they would look good on there, personally :) Snag some NSX wheels and paint them black imo - that's a great route to go and looks awesome.
yeah I’m hesitant cause I don’t know if the paint will look any good. I’m set on volks at this point, I’ve wanted a set for ten years

I think those are formula silver but I appreciate the help
Correct. Those are Formula Silver (that's my car). Don't think I've seen Titanium Gunmetal on SGP but feel like it would look pretty good. ?

Darker colored wheels go well with our color type. Has anyone else noticed but there are some green flakes in the SGP? Also consider the different tones of color SGP emits depending on lighting conditions.

Thanks! They really compliment SGP and its split personality within different lighting conditions well. Whether you go with TG, FS, or another finish, I think a simple set of TE's will be timeless if that is your aim.

I take too many photos of this silly car for my own good so might as well share a few more under different light :)

Certainly very subjective but I agree. I ended up with gloss black,

I like Tomek's wheels and I was strongly considering these in the beginning. The lighting in some of the shots does give it an appearance of looking like bronze. I think I messaged Tomek in the past asking if they were bronze and he said that they were silver. I was totally surprised!!

Yeah they look sweet. I have the gun blue II 57DR’s right now and it’s my favorite color wheel for SGP, looks way better in person than any picture I’ve seen. I just like the profile of the TE37’s so much more. Wish they had gun blue II TE’s

Gun blue on the 57DR is a great color. The matte blue gunmetal TE37 sagas look to be pretty similar if that is a consideration and it’s possible to get your hands on. I think they look stellar.

Rock what you love man everyone has so many different tastes - I've seen some bronze on SGP that I've liked, a deeper bronze almost smokey but don't care for the lighter shades, personally.

Post up what you end up with!

I feel the same way about bronze, I’m up in the air at this point between blast bronze and pressed graphite TE’s. The titanium gunmetal I was considering already sold and it’s discontinued
