Personally I don't think the silver suit the car. But that may be something to do with the original images of the wheels being a bit bright. Can you change the colour to gunmetal in PS? I think gunmetal would suit it better. But you will probably get lot of different opinions on it

Revolutions look sex on blobs. Saw some gold 18's on a blue blob and it looked stunning !

Some more for you to look at, defo gunmetal IMHO

This is as close to side on as i have, you could maybe use my front wheel for both your front and back.

Harder to pull off IMHO, depends on the true colour, look front to rear and gold shades vary and the blue scoob with these wheels isn't as dark as I remember them.

Sorry, don't think they suit the car - PFF7's in gunmetal look really nice on your colour and shape of car.

Fair comment, but it's so hard to find a wheel to suit the car! That's why Rota Tarmacs and PFF7's / Inovit Redlines have been done to death!

Some of the KEI wheels really suit the car too but they're pricey. I think the style here suits classic shapes more than the new age.

My Gold evo milleniums arrived today for my blob. Absolutely awesome! However I came to unwrap the fourth wheel and it is damaged i.e there are 3 small chips where it looks like it's been on on the balancing machine so i'm gonna have to ring tomorrow to see if I can get a replacement which is going to be a pain in the **** because I'm sure i'm gonna be blamed.

Anyways they are deffo a good choice in wheels...........
