this is how my van looks right now, it has 18" rondell wheels.


i bought these recently , brand new old style comp MO's.

they need the centres bored from 56.1mm to 56.6mm.
need to decide whether to get the MO's bored and powdercoated white, or keep the current wheels and sell the MO's.
what do people think is better?
im thinking once the MO's are on theyd look better but not too sure.

What size are the Mo's mate.
I personally think the Mo's are a better lookinn whel than the Rondells.
But just my view 
If you can get the Mo's on, do it

the MO's are 18's aswell.
id like them white, but if i was to powdercoat them, they might end up a different shade from colour of van and look shit?

Out of those 2 sets of rims i'd go for the MO's but keep them the colour that they are, but if I was choosing some rims i'd go for Kahn RSR's

deanmcreynolds - i thought about spraying them, im in the same predicament (sp) about the corsa wheels, want them white but not if its gonna be different from colour of car.
was worried that sprayed wheels would chip too easily?
butler- id have masitaly vt7's in an instant but i can only ever see them in 5 stud and they arent made anymore if i remember rightly?
