QP GTS Alloys

Just wondering if anyone can help me with some info.

I have black alloys on my car but have seen a nice black chrome effect colour on others. Does anyone know what the official Maserati name for the colour is please?

Thanks.

So I guess the black was a aftermarket thing.

Whats the general opinion about having black wheels over dark chrome?

I think the black wheels just tip the car over into drug dealer territory!

Is Grigio Mercury a darker colour than dark chrome?

Yes Masersti never offered black chrome.....You could have silver, grey or ball polished.

Useful chart; thanks, Devonboy.

I have the 7-spoke V style, which I think looks ok, but they stick out weirdly.



I think I'd rather have 'Multi Trident' in dark chrome.

BTW, a nice set of 19in rims for sale in the USA with Sottozeros.

Like the dark chrome I have to say.....more gentleman cad rather than drug dealer!

I think black is too heavy... I went from silver to grey when I had mine redone - which just happened to match the new centre caps perfectly!

I think they could be dark chrome, but purely by chance!

before... (this wasnt the worst one! and the photo is flattering!)

After...

Shoot too late pulled trigger on black and now worried... may just drive it around Cheddar under the cover of darkness form now on.
