My JP is a sliver on silver car with the s-heavies on it. H-sport springs now so it looks right. Now for wheels, I have decided on the TD pro race 2's in either 17or18........but my question is, the bronze color looks very nice and I am torn between the bronze and ice silver color. Obviously the silver is a no brainer will match the car well buuuuuuttt I can't get the bronze out of my head. Think it would look cheese with bronze wheels..

I am partial to the anthracite SSRs on a silver car. I've had SSR Comps on Red, White, Silver and Blue cars(same wheels, different cars), and the best combo is with the Silver.

on a silver car definetely go with anthrasite, hypersilver, silver, or gun metal.

bronze looks better on a dark colored car, such as blue, black, dark gray, etc. :smile:
im using silver on my car because it looks very simple and like my MCS to
look that way.

let us see some picts of your finished product!
