Question

Just buying a P1 that has the standard Anthracite OZs with PZeros (done about 8000m). I also have a set of Gold P1 OZs, 6 months old with Toyos on (also done about 8000m).
Question is, then, which go on the P1???

Slighty daft question I know, but hey, these things are important.

The ones YOU like most! As you've got them both it should be quite easy to get them fitted (or even just put the one in front/next to the other and stand back). My vote is for the anthracite ones.

Keep both sets, and alternate them each month/week according to mood.

I think anthracite is a rarer colour for a Scoob - even I have gold wheels

Either colour looks good on a P1, so you could flip a coin

Hmmm...I'm beginning to think that they'll have to be anthracite as that's the way the P1 was meant to be...

FWIW I recently had my 99MY wheels refurbished and decided on P1 Anthracite. Apparently they are being asked more and more instead of gold

The gold wheels are currently on this:



There are nice, which is why I got them but I'm beginning to think, as I said above, that the P1 should have the anthracites...as God intended

i agree, when i was changing to 18's on mine my wife wanted gold,but the p1 came with antracite so it should stay that way, you wouldnt put different colour wheels on a 22b would you, takes away the identity of the car, so i think
