    Hi, i would like to suggest some new features that i think would be neat about steel wheels, in particular about 4-slots and 5-slots steelies since i use those a lot and i really like them.

    I've noticed that we can actually have these wheels coloured but only in the primary colour of the veichle, i thought it would be great if we had the possibility to make them coloured as the tertiary or secondary colour, especially for cars with two-tone paint liveries such as the Burnside Special and Gavril Bluebuck.

    For example, those two cars can have their roof painted in the colour specified by the Secondary Colour, and i thought it would be nice to be able to match the colour of the roof with the colour of the wheels: if i make a Burnside Special in yellow with a white rooftop and put bigger steelies on it i would like to see them white too, especially if i'm not having whitewall tires but more modern and performance-oriented tires on it:

    Moreover we could use this feature to make steel wheels in contrast with the rest of the paint on single-tone liveries or in racing liveries by matching them with another colour different from the primary: on the Gavril Barstow we can have the colourable Nodeoline livery but we can only have coloured steel wheels in Primary Colour, i think it would be great if we could choose a different colour between the three possible ones; this feature could even be used for drift cars as their wheels are usually painted in flashy colours.
    For example, i would like to have these wheels coloured in white:

    In addition to this, i've noticed that 15x9 steel wheels, both 4 and 5-slots, can only have Duty-S and Duty-L hubcaps but no smoothies, dog dish or anything else: personally i think it would be great to have them as an option in order to keep a car's original appearence and chrome trims while making it more performance oriented, it would be especially good to have these when making sleeper car builds too.
    You can take the first image with the Burnside as an example where i would put small smoothies hubcaps instead of Duty-Ls and the second where i would put them on the Bluebuck in order to have a cleaner look, while here in this next picture i would put dog dish hubcaps:

    There was already an old thread about this very last subject but since it's more than three years old it was more appropriate to bring it back on this new thread: https://www.beamng.com/threads/hubcaps-for-the-15x9-classic-steel-wheels.39246/
