Yes looks good!:coolgleamA: I know you plan on changing them soon but i think the wheels look good. I do like a nice clean simple five spoke rim!:)

I like them too Russ but they are simply too big, in my opinion, to get the best out of the handling. They reduce feel to the steering, the reduce suspension travel through lower profile tyres and there's a nagging part of me that thinks that they are a bit......bling?

I am sure once they are sold, the Comp's are fitted and I have money in my pocket for the next hair brained scheme, I'll feel better about it.

If you have anything 4x100 mate, they may suit one of your cars ;)

On the subject of the Comp's....any thoughts around black, anthracite (gunmetal) or something else? Preferably something that I can paint and these will be prepped properly, not like the orange ones for Betty.

Either anthracite to pick up the colour from the bumper tops, or a dark gold like Barts Sierra GT? IMO.....

I had thought about bronze like my old GTR rims, but the gunmetal would also to the job. My only concern with just painting them black is that they will get a bit lost on there. It's one thing if they were steelies, but these are Compomotives and I would like them to at least get noticed. Gold is too bling for a mk2. Especially one called Grace.

I know your going to say it's gay or to much hassle but black with a red line around the rim to match the grill would look good.
