Alloy opinions please
«

So I was planning on going all black car with black superturismos, but a mate has just offered me a set of Porcshe 928 alloys with brand new bridgestones for £400. ATM they are mirror polished but although no kerbing or anything are looking like they have seen better days.
after opinions on what I should do, polish them up and scrap the whole black thing, maybe getting some clear rears and other bits and pieces to finish off the look, or get them sprayed black?
Heres a link to some on a mk2 on ebay, though these are not the ones I'll be getting these are much more shiney

Also what would I need to do to get them fitting nicely on a mk3?

I think theyd look ok black mate, try and get them very glossy black and i think theyd look smart, maybe with a red pinstripe round the lip, red and black seems to work :-) not sure on the fitting but some1 will no mate

would only work high gloss. Not to sure about a red pinstripe if he's going for all black look
I wouldn't spray them. Keep them polished or oem. I love oem at the moment.

if you get rid of the polishedness on them and spray them black i will slap you.
all black looks gash.
just have black theme with mirror polished wheels.

Love them wheels whatever the colour (within reason!). I think they make a very bold kind of statement, if ya get me.
