Right, ive just bought a set of oz volcano's that are 16 inch. Im going to refurb them as they have been painted before to a poor standard. Im just after opinion's on what colour to do them and how much i could lower it. I was thinknig anthracite, but then if the black spokes were painted properly i think that might look nice. Someone help me make my mind up! Also i know i need clear side reps and the rest colour coded but im thinking about getting a gsi kit so might not bother. Any opinions very welcome.

I did think about just touching the scratches on the spokes up but ive got another month untill my next test so i may aswell do it properly. I going to wash them down with thinners over the weekend so they are back down so i can start again.

offset should be stamped on the inside of the alloys.. will be ET...

ideally you want the offset as close to as ET49 as possible
