what colour wheels
Discussion
We had the wheels on my brother's XJ re-furbished a few months back. It is Jaguar Racing Green and we decided that the best option was to stick with the silver, and have fitted green "growler" centre caps.
We've used darker metallic grey wheels on other cars (such as a silver Monaro) but don't think the green lends itself to many options. All personal taste of course.

hi need to get the wheels my x type refurbished in the new year but havent decided what colour to go for, the car itself is metalic green so was thinking along the line of gold wheels. your thoughts please
If you could post a picture of your car and wheel style?Green and gold works but not if your car has chrome trim. Some wheel styles lend themselves to having a diamond cut outer edge with perhaps a mid grey centre. Really need to see your style of wheel though

I can’t do photoshop but I can tell you gold wheels will look naff.My wheel above although not exactly the same you have a similar style.
The outer edge of your wheels could be diamond cut and the centre finished in a mid to anthracite grey. Your wheels will have a classic look without looking out of place.
If you want a hint of gold, I would clean up behind the wheels and detail the brake calipers in gold like the picture below.
