Gav the first pic looks alot better than the factory ones. Now you just gotta get a chrome tooth grille, whitewalls, venetian blinds, spats etc etc

I agree that they look better than the standard EF Ghia wheels, but they are a bit common thesedays.

Seeing it in person the car needs a pin stripe on it of some colour.IF he sticks with these i reckon a silver pin stripe of something to break up the colour of the car.

They look good mate. Personally, I'd go some EL Ghia rims, I reckon they would look awesome, especially as your car is pretty well slammed!

My opinion is that they look better than the factory rims, but if it were me, I'd be going for a bigger set. Are these 17's or 18's? Your car deserves bigger rims. So does mine, but money is not being directed at my car at the moment

I like them Gav. Just a random thought, they would look great if the face of the spokes was polished and the rest painted black... possibly...

They look pretty good, but I thought you were keeping it as a sleeper?
