DOH! Mine are ok, but the tyres are worn in the inside (all wheel track now done) and they've got curb marks due to previous owner, so I thought, the tyres will cost me around 400, so why not pay another 100, and get a full new set of wheels!!!!! Would just like to see a DBM with dark grey wheels, as I quite like the look of the Gold wheels at the mo.

My rims arrived today and they look awesome,not a mark on them and well packed,all the nuts and chrome valves,if they look as good on the car then i will be even more chuffed,they guy is nearly giving them away at that price,they toyo's on their own fitted would cost you well over 300 notes.

How do i post piccys,i have a host,i have not fitted them yet as i want some good stuff on them to protect.

They look even better offered up to my punto.

I'm off out for that pint for you now Ray!!

Cheers

I'm going for silver on mine....and probably the torque's...for something a bit different!

Quite liked the gold Redlines and Tarmacs but feel Reddish blue is just a bit dark for them. Just my opinion tho.

Paul W - when I first scrolled down and saw the Punto I cr@pped myself
Does that wheel look massive or is the lady really small in that photo?
What are you putting on the wheels to protect them?

Women driver - im picking my gold Redlines up Saturday about 10am.
