This is gunna sound really stupid but don't shoot me!
I like the alloys but they look to silver?? The chrome is so polished and proud on your car it looks weird not to see chrome on your wheels too???

i know where ur coming from but the all the archs have a polished edge they look like the best rim's yet the alpina's went for another reason to E30_GAV when i swapped them for the wire wheels

The arches detract from the wheels - you needed the ultra-bling of the wires to even come close to looking right with them

Much much better than the wires, see what nathan,s saying about them and the arches.
How about colour co-ordainating spokes with the car and leaving the rims?.

I cant quite tell, all the shinyness from those nasty arches is blinding me to the rest of the car....

Chrome arches + dirt + water = RUST!
Looking good but loose the chrome arches, they are probably alot worse than the M-tech kits for causing rust - and we've all seen what they can do...

A definate improvement over the pimp wires. Are you gonna get a black horse shoe btw and when are you gonna come to a meet?

Cheers guys for al the comments just to let u know the arches aint going no where!!!!!!!
And I would of kept the Wire Wheels if there wasn't so many fitment issue's and also possible dangerous brakes
I think the new rim's are gonna look fat in the sun light witht he roof down they have a nice polished lip maybe the centres will go black at some stage

what exactly were the issues with the wires?! cause they were soooooo much cooler and even possibly made the chrome arches acceptable

(cant believe i said that, thats 50 lashes for later..)
