not really,i dont really fanchy white,and i already have black ones,maybe silver,or a light gold/bronze or even a light anthracite/gunmetal.....so no craig i haven't a fookin clue.
i liked some wheels that scott@scoobyspares has,off of his 1998 breaking thread,they are p1 buddy club wheels in black with a polished lip which look nice but he wants far too much £££ for them as 2 tyres need replaceing.

there are 16 " as i wanted to mine handle exactly as it was designed on the std pink shocks/springs. have sincle learned the metal rays use in construction is second to none and are so so lightweight... all good for unsprung weight

In my own opinion the classics don't get away with wearing those Rotas, the newage does but the classic just looks too skinny for them lol.

Each to their own mate whatever tickles yer pickle.

One thing i will add, dont just buy something 'to be different' or to stand out, its pointless, just buy what you personally think is good and enjoy. There aren't enough wheels made to be a rare sight on a Scooby lol
