Hmmmm not a bad idea. Silver will make it look cleaner I think, but white has that motorsport look.

I already have some white Comps on my other Vaux so maybe stick with silver

Yes I did have those usernames many moons ago but haven't a clue about powdercoating? I'm fairly sure we haven't met before Nic so maybe you've got me confused with somebody else or have been listening to silly rumours! Thanks for the tuning advice though fella, it's appreciated

BBS RX's Love those wheels

Had mine refurbed in white, and some new centre caps off ebay and freshens them up a treat.

Very nice but again I ask 15s or 16s

As with so many things in life, the difference between 15 and 16 is cruicial

Cheers

Craig I just put a wanted ad up on Clubcalibra Just dont mention you drive a Corsa or you'll get slated rotten, even I do Tell em you've got lexus lights and they'll come running to give you wheels.

That said I've not seen many sets about, so I'm gonna have to look after these. I reckon a full refurb and powdercoated inside + out and they'll be fine

If you're referring to mine that's not the case, DTM wheels are white for starters. They are off an SE5, which is a limited edition calibra with some irmscher and BBS goodies on it.
