Question

Apologies if this has been asked before ... bl00dy search not working !

Just replaced my OEM silver alloys with OEM gold alloys (6 spoke MY00).

I was wondering whether you can get gold wheel nuts? (+gold locking wheel nut covers?)

Am I being too pedantic i.e. will I never notice the silver nuts?

Actually, what is most noticable is the wheel balancing weights, any ideas for colour coding these????

I'm willing to "get me coat"

Mike,
I've got the my00 six spokes in Gold, and I don't notice that the nuts are chrome, if you feel rich you could get them gold plated, and as for the weights, you could have them stuck on the inside when they're balanced, unless you got mega large brakes tucked in there.

Ron,

Don't think the budget will stretch to gold plating, LOL

How would I go about getting the weights stuck on the inside ... presumably goto a tyre fitter and ask to get the wheels re-balanced ???
