Did you get the wheels banded or did you get them off ebay or something?

I'd cut a bollock off for a set identical to yours just now.

Your not selling the D90's are you?

chequers flag has been done jimmy quite a few times now and i dont think it would look right on yours,

i think plain satin black wont be enough, will just look bland,

the way the wheels seem to look, the dishes dont look HUGE, so i think having a different coloured outer rim, such as the same colour as your bodywork or silver will emphasise them a bit more.

chrome paint could be an option for something different, even shadow chrome could be good too, if you type chrome paint in in google it comes up with a really good company that you can buy the paint online

And a rear wheels trial fitted....

I dunno? I took it off the lad that was meant to be buying my van. I think he said it was one Bogg Bros made for his old GSI on R1 Carbs, but i can't be sure.
