I only paid £100 for the 4 a couple of years ago...(someone owed me a favour)
They were DRASTICALLY badly kerbed and the usual problem with those wheels....water had lifted the laquer on all 4 VERY badly....
Nobody will ever have a worse set refurbed lol...I was totally amazed when they were perfect.....he even said that although he had to reprofile the edges of the rims due to the bad kerbing, there was plenty of ally left for next time...lol
All the best Brett

I like it Brett! As far as the silver centers go...eh, I could see them go either way, quite frankly. Maybe the gold and colored caps would stand out a little better? Or maybe the engraving could blacked in so it's more visible? But the silvers are not offensive in any way as is.
Beautiful car!

Well as I took the colour of the wheels advice from here...
I will do the same on the centres, I will get my daughter to repaint the old centres and take a picture of both painted and chrome and post a poll here....let you guys decide as I am so pleased with the wheels in colour
All the best Brett
