Hello chaps I’ve just bought a 2017 Macan s and I have booked it in to have the wheels powder coated.The problem is I can’t make my mind up on a colour.Choices are satin grey to match the car which is agate grey .Or satin black.Has anyone had their wheels powder coated and if so can you show me some photos please 🙏🏻

I have platinum satin on my 981, black on the Macan.
Black shows the dust dirt whereas the platinum wheels never look grubby even when they are.

Welcome to our friendly forum! :)

Personally, on an Agate Grey Macan, I’d have silver wheels. ;)

Cheers,
Simon

Agree, surely grey on grey would be “dull overload”.

Imo contrast is always best (ie light/bright paint with dark wheels, dark paint with lighter wheels)

Best combos for me:

White/silver/chalk/red paint : black wheels
Black paint: silver of platinum grey type wheels
Grey paint (volcano/agate): work with black wheels but also silver/chrome
