Ok, I picked up these wheels at a bargain price but not sure if i should get them resprayed gloss black or leave as is? Really like them as they are! :eek:

yeh, im thinking leave as! I'll get the 40m apex's on & go from there. I may just respray my current wheels & use for the winter then change over spring time!

LOL at how clean that thing is now

100% LEAVE THEM AS IS

Black wheels will make it looks less clean and chavy

40mm+ drop on them will look great

as your painting skills are comming along get them bullets off and smooth them over black bullets will look so much better than bumblebee tack dawn :rasp:

Keep them silver! Silver is the way forward. Very very clean and shiny! I want mine that clean :(

They are quite nice them wheels, just leave them as they are. 45 profile tyres are a must.

It says megane on the leaflet, matie that i got them off had a ph1 172 but never fitted them.

Can any one photoshop them gloss black with a yellow diamond, perhaps? ;)

Leave silver, looks more oem!
I have a feeling it will need slightly more than 40mm to pull them off though!

SOOOOOOOOOOO shiney too... wish i had the materials/knowledge to detail like that!

They look great as they are 195/45/15's should be ok, your speedo may over read a bit though, about 5mph @60mph iirc?
