After rolling on 13" steels for far too long, here are my freshly refurbished alloys  
Before:

After:




Ignore the white paste, still need to get that off after the tyres were fitted 
Theyre not perfect, but all opinions welcome 
EDIT: Better pics have been taken, just waiting for them to be sent to me

...These crappy phone pics do them no justice, can't wait to see the ones matt's taken 
there are some slight marks where the tyre fitters caught them though

Personally think white wheels go better on a black car.
But i dont like black wheels full stop.
But aslong as you like them all that matter

yep Showing on the CS stand
little off topic but I've just been out and it suddenly started making a vibrating/rubbing sound 
Sounds like its coming from the front left but its not constant (sounds like possibly once every wheel rotation), cant hear it under acceleration and wasnt happening earlier today with these wheels (also these wheels have been on the car 1 year + so i know they dont foul anything)
anyone any ideas?

Cheers guys I love it now...just hope I can fix this vibration quickly/easily/cheaply
Hopefully it will just be a balancing weight come off or something stupid
