i knew there'd be a few of you out there that would preferred them in white, and i always wanted a set of white wheels, but after having them on it i grew tired of the 'all one colour' look... the finish on them was getting poor too, so they needed doing (you couldnt actually wash the dirt off them due to the overspray in places). plus it made the car look yellowy! they probably wont stay this colour forever, i fancy going for a mental colour like you said sparky! takata green was the top of the list, but they initially were intended as winter wheels, so i needed something that was pretty maintenance free. better pics: i didnt have a chance to set up the camera, so theyre a bit dark!
