I'm planning to have my silver wheels powdercoated this winter. You might want to google powdercoated wheels to see the tremendous number of options available now...there are literally 1000s of colors now, and you can get them clearcoated as well, so the permutations are ridiculous. Some companies will send you free swatches...up to 5...hope this helps.

Default HRE liquid silver

been running these since 2014, the silver paint is addictive, however, it will nick from stones, that is the reason I am moving on to powdercoat after winter....HRE refuses to supply a touch up pen (ridiculous) so I suggest stay away from these wheels even though they look fantastic.

Here are some of my favorites

HRE P101's in Brushed Clear:
















I was hesitant on whether I would post this set or not since I know you didn't want dark wheels, but I think this wheel style in particular really looks awesome on this chassis. Since we custom make our wheels to order there would be no problem requesting these wheels in any one of our 80+ Finishes which include a Full Polish as well if you want a bright mirrored look.

HRE RS100M's in Brushed Titanium:




















Here's an example of what we can do with our Polished option shown here on our Classic 300 if you're interested in this finish:

To piggyback off what Jurrian said, I think High Polished wheels are certainly making a comeback and they look killer on the C7. Please excuse these two photos of a Stingray sporting a slightly different red.

HRE 560C's in High Polish
