black car/white alloys

[swansea v6]

I have been offered the chance to pick up some white 7 spoke alloys for my black mark 1, what do you all reckon on white wheels on a black car??? i can't decide if they will look good or not......

[Kinky]

I'd say not.

I think it was Denny who sprayed his wheels black - and boy do they look good .

[Kinky]

Indeed it was ....

Nice!!!

highly tempted to buy them, they are cheap...and get the black paint out.....black car..black wheels????

[Kinky]

I'm pretty confident that Denny will be along sometime soon to tell you how easy it all was.

I did do a quick check to find his thread about it - but buggered if I could find it.

I'm after some cheap 15" alloys for track tyres so if you decide you don't want them, could you point me in the right direction

[swansea v6]

they are only 14" but will let you know if i don't want them

[MX-5 Lazza]

Ah, I need 15". 14" won't fit over Mk2.5 Sport brakes.

Phill - I do apologise. It was your goodself. I knew that Denny had it done, and that there was a thread with pics of it - but buggered if I could find it.

And all the while it was yours

Still a cracking job
