I really like that, they go well with the lazer blue (at least I think it's lazer blue :scratch ).

I've got black on mine, but my car is Magnetic blue so a bit darker - some like some don't, I think they are nice however. Ultimate goal is to get the diffuser done as well and maybe pick up a black soft top as well that would complete the look.

I think the black or dark coloured (anthracite for instance) wheels really suits certain colours, particularly blue.

I think dark/gunmetal coulour are ace but black often hides the design of the wheel so for that reason - I'm oot

Something you've experienced "at length" Tut? ;)

PS. Car looks ace. Black wheels are the way forward :)
