Silverstone II: Aftermarket wheel pic thread

Hey guys,

I am in the market to purchase aftermarket wheels and it would be great if all you guys with them fancy 19" and 20" wheels to show them off.

Also, what color wheels do you guys think would look best on Silverstone II? I am thinking Silverstone is a harder to combine with black and graphite colored wheels versus the silver. However, some contrast would be nice.

Thanks

Honestly, Silverstone would go excellent with black. You could go with a 3-pc wheel with a combination of gloss-black reverse-lip with matt-black centers or gloss-black reverse-lip with brushed aluminum centers. It would be somewhat unique and different, yet siick looking.

You can customize your wheels, color combination, and offset from companies like DPE, iForge, etc...

Let me know if you need a hookup, I'm sponsored by DPE Wheels. Actually, DPE has two other wheel-center colors that you can check out. It's called titanium asphault and platinum graphite. These two colors for wheel centers would be an awesome comination with either gloss-black reverse-lip or hyper-polished reverse lip for your Silverstone exterior.

There website is www.dpe-wheels.com. You could also contact Jojo from DPE at jojo@dpe-wheels.com and tell them Freddie referred you.

IMO Gunmetal centers is the way to go on silver... Though silver on silver is a nice clean look in person.
