Default Thinking of getting rid of my Prodrive Alloys! Plus photoshop reqd!

Have been tempted to change my wheels latley, i love these wheels and i know how rare and expensve they are but i think i would prefer a more multi spoke silver wheel, and am thinking of getting a set of 18" TSW paces.

What do you all think? plus how much do you think i would get for my wheels, they have no kerb marks but do have some marks where the previous owner stacked the wheels on top of each other but nothing too major. I think they have been refurbed in the past as the OZ logo is missing from the outside rim edge. 2 tyres have about 4mm tread left the other 2 about 3mm.

How much you reckon i would get for em???

Plus if any photo shop wizard fancies putting set of TSW paces on please that would be appreciated to help make my mind up.

Heres my car and wheels...

I think you should leave well alone mate - I'm not normally a big fan of gold wheels but that looks very smart to me

The gold's a bit too much for me, but the actual Prodrive rims themselves aren't too shabby. Why not just get them powder-coated grey or anthracite and they'll look a hundred times better.

I much prefer the Prodrive ones. Get them refurbed in a different colour if you're bored

Refurb is a good idea , can anyone photo shop them for me and change the colour to a diamond bright silver and a graphite colour to see which would look the best.

Leave it as you've got. It look stunning.

Shame they don't do that Blue in the new age car's, cos I prefer that blue to the WR Blue that I have. Would have chosen that Blue if it was available.
