With some white colour coding on the car they'll look cool. The anthracite looks good but does'nt stand out ( if thats what you're after? ).
Love the blue scoob, what colour is that by the way???

Top thread you have going sir. Great work.Now you've got me thinking.
What are the tyres like & what about the distance between us?
Take a look at this thread where I brought these wheels from. There is some close up pic's of my wheels at the end of it. Then see what you think.
(mind you not a problem for you with that spray gun)

I do think mine will look lovely when the car is lowered but, they would look the nuts on yours.
Are you going to the Colin McRae weekender? I'd love to see your work close up.
My tyres are pretty good, loads of meat on them. Not the best make though. The wheels are also in good nick, few marks, nothing I can't put right though
I remember those wheels going up for sale now, wasn't willing to pay that much then, espesh as my wheels were ok!!
I'm defo going to the Colin Mcrae weekender (on nwcscoobieclubs stand), it'd be rude not to as its only about 5 miles from where I live

I'm going to be brave and stick with the white and see my plans through.
I can always get then powder-coated if I change my mind.
Thanks mate and once again yours is lovely.

i was against white wheels on a green car (As mine is green too) but having seen them on yours, i'm not sure.
its like looking at a chick who your not sure if she's beautiful or ugly. borderline, cant quite decide if you would or not, but you still have too look anyway

Thanks guys. I'm loving the look myself. Next job is my fmic which I picked up on the weekend then a remap. Hoping for 340-350 bhp. Then back to the body work with sti rear spoilers p1 splitter and colour coded side skirts. I need to get the rear bumper sorted aswell. I was hit up the **** in the snow, lightly mind but flaked the paint so need to have the bumper repainted. The bumper on the car in the pic's is one I got off the bay from a 96 model which has different moldings and is a slightly different green. Estimated finish time 3months.

The way some people put stuff cracks me up. I think I understand what your saying. Although I think mine is an outright beauty and if the exhaust wasn't so big I'd bang it.
