Default 19" Volk GT-7

Well,

I would like to know which of the colors look best on the Z. I saw many Z's with Gunmetal rims and they look good. What about these other colors: Chrome Silver, Noble Gold, Bronze, and Mercury Silver.
Can some one post pics of all the colors so I know how they all compare.

What color is the closest to Chrome? Volk lists the two of the colors as Mercury Silver or just Silver. Which is closer to a Chrome color?

i went through all this silver/ merc silver crap about 1 month ago. It seems the silver is a flat silver, the mercury is more like a regular silver wheel. Do what i did just get the gunmetal. To me the gun metal on these wheels makes them look bigger because of the contrast of the gunmetal and the chrome lip. Just my .02

snook789, I did get the PM. Thanks, that was good stuff. It's just the pictures didn't quote show the difference between the 2 I'm interested in. Was just trying to get a few more thoughts on the topic.

Thanks again.

I hear ya BFG10, I went though the same thing when ordering mine

the regular silver, is like freezeg35, said, a flater silver, matched the chrome silver color on the Z well
Like on trp2nd Z - click on image below



the mercury silver is more like the new liquid silver
Painted, not chrome

Email me, I have some more pictures of the mercury silver, and I have not heard back from the owner if it is cool to post them

What offset fits the Z on these wheels and looks the best? I saw one store selling +29 front and +30 rear and also +23 front and + 24 rear (Both are for 350Z). A different store is selling them w/ Front and rear both 36.

And can anyone please post pics or email me pics of gunmetal and gold.

The regular gold is a little too gold for me. The Noble Gold looks ok. I still might get gunmetal and go with a dark look: I have the black pearl license plate, going to get the gunmetal rims and smoked reflectors and a tint. How would that look?

On second thought you should do the gunmetal. I'm gonna go with the gold so you can't.

J/K, You sound like you like the gunmetal so go with that.

i am looking into getting the Volks as well. I have a Chrome Silber and debating between Gunmetal or Silver. Any suggestions? And does anybody have a pic with gunmetal on a chrome silver. And I am curious about offset as well.
