only thing about black wheels are that they look like steelies in bad light! im liking chrome but heard that they need a lot of care! and white - mother of pearl sounds good! although black looks stealthy! choices!!!

remember white will be a pain, all the brake dust will ruin them, turn them yellow etc.

if you need tehm refurbed so soon i would not spend big bucks on chroming considering you don't have any road driving experience so imagine crying your eyes out when you kerb the fuck out of them!!

Thats my car..... Thats an old pic that was taken 3days after I bought the car from knew so was high and also to make it higher still the car had just been jucked up and had the 17s put on so no-time to lower.

If you look in my garage now you will see my car sits much lower, However its even lower again now, since the last pic I took.
