i think it looks good, but i agree it would look better a bit darker, when your whole car is clean and stuff it might be a bit too blue!, i think your wheels would look good on my car though

Well you need standard wheels - standard lights, standard grill. Interior and so on................

White indicates intention - and they really work on red cars regardless of style.

They look gash.

The shopped wheel looks nice though, I'd get them re-done gloss black.

going for matt black powder coated now, think itll look alot harder than gloss black, if my car was cleaner etc then yes i agree gloss black would look ace but matt just adds to the stelthyness lol

or if i can get a satin finish with powdder coat ill go for that

I am sorry, but as you say they are too blue.

I want a set doing in Antra, but if they are going to turn out like that I don't think I will risk it.

lol, make sure you pick the right anthactie, think matt black will make it look better and it should look good without putting 9 tons of tyre shine on the tyres like you need with gloss black
