Tbh I hate the two tone look. Either a solid colour all over or body coloured centres with a polished lip is what I'd go for

Looks good mate. Although you are right that silver should be kept for the Annis, I think these will come out really nice once done and on the car.

Cheers bud!  I wasn't sure if I wanted to run these or get different wheels but seeing yours with them spaced out gave me motivation lol. I'm thinking of running 205 tyres tho with 25mm spacers on the back?
