im about to purchase some new rims and have dcided on the rota c8. Ook i have a nbp ep and was wondering if the royal bronze series of rims by rotas have the same bronze color as their other just "bronze" rims????
this is what im talking about. the following link has a pic of the bronze with polished lip and it looks like a really dark bronze which is what i like.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43956&item=2456996142

but then theres another seller selling the same rims and the broonze in that picture is super bright which is not what i want.

:mad:

anyway both sellers arent going to take separate pics for me which i understand, too much of a hassle so i was wondering if anyone knew the answer to my question. Is the bronze a dark bronze???? close to gun metal??? or is it more close to the steel grey???

thanks guys :D

When i got my Subzero's in the mail. The bronze was lighter than other wheel manufacturs. There kinda light bronze/gunmetal. Click on the link in my sig to see pics of the wheels.

i thought the rota gunmetal was a little more "bronze" than the bronze. when i shine mine, they look more like a deep brownish color.

here's a shot, but it doesn't show how brown they are.
