steve, sorry mate, been offline for a couple off days. I cant make Bingley hall, but a friend of mine is going. I could ask him to collect the wheels, or I could pick them up from your house. Whatever is easier for you is fine by me, just let me know. Are you going Bingley in your mini ?

They do look quite good in black, but my wheels go black when theyr dirty. why make your wheels look like they are dirty all the time. Im just like brighter colors really.

Because that way you cant tell that the wheels are dirty?

And perhaps black wheels suit certain cars??

Couldnt agree more. I drive a high sided white van for work and its a right pain to keep clean. Think i'll ask for a *melon* brown colour van next time.

Just stumbled on this topic steve and those wheels look ace mate, I reconditioned a set for my old car and it took me bloody ages and i was never happy with them!
Well worth the money I'd say!
Will bear it in mind depending on what wheels i end up with for my new project!

cheers
Matt
