JO3 0 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 New wheels look sweet mate. I would have kept them red (if that's really the colour they used to be) a bit of contrast is always good! As for the calipers, I'd either do them red or black Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted October 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 cheers mate yeah they were red when I bought them - that's why I am thinking about doing the calipers red for a contrast and to add a different colour Link to post Share on other sites
