Painting wheels can dramatically alter the look of your car. Show us some of your favorite cars with painted wheels.

Both of these cars feature wheels painted HRE Satin Bronze, with color details as provided by @ClydeYellow in the Manufacturers Color Chart thread.

This Escort RS Cosworth is a blast to drive. I prefer it without the huge double-decker wings. Those 4-spoke wheels only work on a few cars, but when they do, they're amazing.

Wire wheels are stunning when painted in a dark color. It's hard to tell they're in HRE Satin Bronze, I think painting them black would have been just as good. I will be doing a big photoshoot with this Maserati soon. I love the sports-racers of the '50s and '60s, they always bring the sexy.
 
Your colour choice and wing delete on that Escort looks sensational.

I know it's 5 - is this car in Horizon 2? - but you can go wacky with the DS3's standard wheels.

Are those HREs silver? It's kind of hard to tell in that light.
 
Nope, they are white Populuxe Cowboy, I'll have a daylight shot coming shortly. :)

Is that the same HRE Satin Bronze on that Aston? It looks great.
 
Yes it is satin bronze on stock wires, I love the Aston. :)
 
Can't go wrong with those HRE!
Among all the many improvements made to FH2, the inclusion of all those great HRE wheels probably gets the least fanfare, and yet makes a big lasting impression.
