The ones with the red rims, if done in the same colour as the car, could look really good.

Although i am liking the idea of the whole thing black with just the very tops of the spokes polished up and lacquered. Will be a bitch of a job to polish though :)

got a spare set of wheels to use and im in uni, i got all the time in the world winkeye

what im considering doing is stripping the whole wheel down, removing all of the existing paint flatting the spokes so they are halfway to being polished, doing them balck, then finishing off the spokes.

so if i do one and decide it needs the red rim i can do it afterwards, and if its gash ill strip it off and re polish the lip.

cant decide if the centre of the centre cap should be black or red or silver tho?

I think satin black BBS with just a polished rim look good a bright red car.

Hairscreech you strike me as a sensible chap, please don't ruin that image by using any combination of red on BBS wheels :)

Just silver with some nice 50 profile rubber is fine 8)
