Thanks! The Minilifes? I'll be keeping those as an extra set of wheels for now. Smile

Looks good on the dark blue car too.

Def needs some pinstripes in gold down the side of the car to match.

Well, here she is on her new wheels :

Still undecided on the colour, but hey, can stay as they are for now.

They fill out the arches nicely :

Definitely needs to be a bit lower once the engine is back in.

And the two wheels together that I have :

When you get a chance, post a front profile view pic of the old wheels vs. the new wheels on the car. It'd be cool to see how the different offsets look. They do look very very nice.
