60/40 now
Those graphite wheels look superb on the silver car. I'd certainly leave as is. |

Graphite all the way, silver looks so standard and common, but its a personal choice so no offence to any guys owning silver wheels.
Graphite breaks the standards a bit and looks more

I was expecting similar number on both sides.
The wheels in this color is OEM Audi - so not from halfords. |

Chav is the black and orange D3 from a thread in daily banter section
Here there is nothing wrong with the wheels, especially nothing Chav. If you want A8 look like a classy limo you go for silver, if you want to step away a little from that classines, go a little sporty, then you go for any other colour than silver. I think that the actual problem here for people to accept or like these wheels is the actual colour of the car and possibly design of the wheels in this combination Jza8, please don't take it the wrong way, I'm not criticising the colour of your car!!!!!!

Definitely gunmetal. I'm a bag fan of dark wheels.
I had them on my Silver TT and I think it looked excellent. |

M-A8 - I'm thinking along Your lines. I'm personally not a fan of dark wheels on dark cars. On the other hand I agree it's the image of A8 that dictates things as well. Some wouldn't oppose this color on - let's say A4. I'm torn as well hence this thread.
P.S looks better in life as well - not as dark as in the picture. |

Never
Back on topic - I think it is because you don't see this combo much on the A8 that people are generally against it For me, it works Your car, your rules
