Nearly finished changing a few bits and bobs in between some shows this season. Got my wheels back a few weeks ago and on the car, to be honest i dont like them as much as the chrome.
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which wheels might look better? ideally something which wont take as long to clean lol

Cheers, Steve

not an option mate, only one place in the UK does it and they wanted £300 per wheel. To be honest chrome is an absolute bitch to keep on top of, especially when theres 20 spokes on each

Its crap but only cos i left em on 2 winters ago, bad idea and i never knew i had to keep on top of them so much so i got lazy. They still arent THAT bad though. Ideally id have a mint set for shows andkeep the set i have now for driving as they look fine

Aye cheaper than getting them redone though. Tbh this country just doesnt suit chromes if your car is an every day car or you'd have all the time in the world to take off the wheels and clean everytime you go somewhere.

I just dont think any other type would suit my car, they are kinda its indentity, same for yours really although you do have awesome paint
