I'd personally steer clear of black wheels on a black car. I don't think they go well together.

Swore at it whilst I drove it to work - I've got to unblock the drain tubes under the scuttle panel again. I can hear water washing about when I take a corner.

Great cars though Swifts. There's a really nice black one with the sports kit on it that goes round town here. Looks lush!
