+1 on these thoughts...somehow it looks off, especially in those C4S Meteor Grey pics. On the other hand it looks pretty good on those close-up pics on the turbo.

I was thinking the same thing. They look really good up close up, but when viewed with the whole car, I think because of the perceived size issue, not so much, IMO.

Oh I love that look. I know this has been asked and answered before but how much are those?

Thanks,

Tom

I'm biased, obviously, as you can tell from my avatar but I love the Carrera Sport wheels. It shouldn't be too difficult to find someone who could do a quality black paint job on them.
