Up on stands and wheels off
Getting them done light gold - because white looks good but is done to death, hate black, bored of silver, gunmetal is neither here nor there and i dont like wild coloured wheels
Have a dilemma on brakes - going to be a few months atleast till i have a bit free cash to waste on brembos, so going to paint these in mean time
I think red will look well but might feel like im pretending to have brembos?
Blacks the next option?

I think if you've done the prep on the calipers so the metal is nice and smooth, silver looks good. It's looks like they're all brand new and the car then looks well kept

Loads better. Glad you're raising the rear because that's the only thing I'd change with it.

I was a bit sceptical about how the colour would look but they look really good fitted
