Question What do you think of this wheel?

I took the pics with my phone so the quality is a bit pants but you get the general idea.

The wheel rim is against my wheel...

The rear wheel is the one i may get, ignore the front one







The wheels are Dare LS2. I have been unable to find them on the net. I have white rims already and was going to change them to anthracite but i cant find any i like, what do you think?


Ignore the random black trim near the wheels, its a long story

Great, i have done something right

I went out looking for anything other than white and saw these and that was it. I thought about the one with the polished lip but decided that it was more of a 'fashion' wheel.

Cleaning these will be a hell of a lot easier than my Team Dynamics

The offset looks a little out, they might fould the arch

Seriously though, I like white 5-spokes and they suit the colour of you car nicely. Agree, go all white and don't get the polished rim. Buy a load of poorboys as well and layer it up before you fit the wheels. Thay will be a pig to clean once they are on, and look awful when they're dirty

If you look in my profile you will see what i have had to clean for the last 6 years, they have been the bane of my life

I no longer hit the kerbs so these should last me ages. Mine are all buckled, three since the snow

I will order them tomorrow but i wont fit them until i have some new pads, cant wait now
