got some new controversial wheels

right i needed a new set of alloys asap as the car was off the road due to a wheel failure after looking around got a great deal on these (a deal too good to miss), my tyres were already brand new so was begrudged going for any different size rims. what do you think ? (prepares to be blasted)
once i get some money after christmas they will be powder coated satin black or white cant decide





and yes i know the car needs a damn good clean

They are quite bling, but they show off you brake upgrade nicely

how much do they weigh in at as they look like they should be pretty light!

they are less than half the weight of the 19's that came off so should reduce kerb weight a bit.

not for me thanks look Cheap and nasty (probs not they just look it) they make the car look a bit odd

Multispoke alloys IMO are the only alloys that shud be on a ZS

Not really my cup of tea but shows off the brakes nicely as said already.
