Easier to spray the wheels than your car?

car is to be sprayed regardless, they wont go cheap so i will need to budget for a refurb if i dont like a colour combo

refurb them yourself for less than £50, they look in good condition so won't need that much prep.

mate you shouldn't choose the colour of your car based on the fact that you might get some wheels which are white. You should decide which colour you want the car then get/paint whatever wheels you want to suit. they aren't the only set of alloys in the world. start going to some hotrod events you'll mind loads of old school wheels for sale at them

the stock cars up the unit use them wheels im sure.... maybe not mag i dont know much about them but a lot of them are silver or painted daft colours quite badly and chunks gouged out them
as for colour i think it depends on the car type/style... my mates selling his black 2001 punto sport replica and its on white wheels, now i hate punto but this looks dunno about the imp though, maybe red?
