Require pics of Silverstone M3 with Volks TE37

Is there anyone can provide the pictures of Silverstone M3 with TE37? I'm looking for a better color combination. Thanks.

I had these for approximately two weeks.... I couldn't grow to like the Bronze and SSII color combo.

Wheel Specs

Front - 18 x 9.5 et22 with 5mm spacer (effective et17) & 275/35/18 Hankook RS3's
(Slight rub at full lock)

Rear - 18 x 10.5 et22 & 285/35/18 Hankook RS3's
(No rubbing)

Agreed. That would be my first choice followed by black.

See post number 909 in the link below. Pressed graphite is ok IMO. I'm not a huge fan of that color with silverstone based on the pictures. Keep in mind that TE37SL's don't accept center caps which means you see rusty hubs (unless you paint the hubs). I prefer TE37's which accept center caps. Unfortunately the TE37's are more expensive.

dark colored TE37s look really good on SSII.

And also, 18s look perfect, 19s are probably too big IMO for TE37 on this car.

I think black (and all dark) wheels on SSII are too aggressive looking for DD, but look nice in track pics.
