On the old wheels
But that’s just my opinion and it’s not my car

An old B-Class.
+1 not a fan of black wheels.

I need to get the rims on my SL powder coated and am wondering what to go for. I like the original look but the restorers will only give 6 month guarantee.

In reality a fresh powder coat will last two to three years, that is in my experience anyway :)

Black wheels on a black car looks great. On a silver car....no!

It's all down to personal taste, for me Black wheels on any colour car is a NO :rolleyes:

Changing the wheels on the S500 made it look shorter and more squat - also left very little room in the wheel arches :)
