going to paint my wheels

i want to have a play with my car tommorrow. i have some new speakers to put in ad need to get the wheels off anyway to check out the state of my ball joints so thought i would paint the wheels whilst im at it.
i dont like the wheels i have but dont have the money to get new ones so im going to make them a bit more appealing!

Have to admit that I prefer the top pic too!

Nothing wrong with RA's. Nice classic wheel that suits the car imho.

I actually like black centres, silver rim but for the proper win it should be black spokes with diamond cut top faces and polished diamond cut rims.

Paint would look OK though.

why not sell the wheels to someone who really likes them and then get yourself ones you like….

I liek them with black centres, but only if done well.

I prefer the top pic, but then i've just paid a fortune to have a set of those BBS RA's refurbed to go on mine, instead of the Scala's that are on there at the moment.I just think they were the best looking standard wheels to go a MK1. :lol:

choose what you want, not what we like. i think black ceentres look better on certain colour cars. as said, sell them and get something you like.

have tried selling them but not had any interest so thought i would make them a bit more pleasing to the eye.

what i really want is estorils mmm….

Black centres on BBS RA's is the way forwards I reckon - it's what Volkswagen did on the Sportline so if it's good enough for VW, it's good enough for me!
