Never liked that smooth look Shaun, imo. wheels should look mechanical... like a Jeweler made them 
they just shout easy to clean! No offense to OP
Works for me, rather than BBS which just look like ballache whenever I look at them.
They also look like they're pretending to be wire wheels, which to me means they look like they're doing an impersonation of something crap from the outset.
The sort of thing that's fitted to MGBs
I consider myself privileged to hold this view as it keeps me away from the me-too-ness of BBS wheels, which aren't particularly light either.
5-spoke FTW, although I don't like those, because IMO any wheel that suits a Golf2 needs to be a sharp, edgy design (not cross-spoke though, obviously).
