Got my new wheels on monday courtesy of starkie and i have just taken some pics today to see what everyone thinks.




I'm unsure whether to paint them black again, like my old wheels. But i am also unsure of whether silver goes with the black and blue theme that i have.
Opinions please!

I liked the old ones too! 
Although the fact that one was buckled and they scrubbed a bit at the back swayed the decision.
But to be honest, these do look a lot nicer in the 'flesh' than the pics show.
I think i will try them black with a silver lip and if i don't like the silver lip i will just spray over it!
Anyone fancy doing a photoshop?
Please?

I don't think white is the way for me!
I have an unhealthy obsession for dark wheels! Maybe anthracite?

Thanks again.
Thats good, it gives me a better idea. I think the silver lip may be done though.
I think the front needs lowering a tad more now I have around an extra inch of ground clearance to play with!

I don't want a gsi spoiler, unless its smoothed in to the boot.
Otherwise I want to get a steinmetz one maybe, just a little lip.
Also, not having a spoiler makes everyone think its slower than it is!
