    My gay blue wheels have now annoyed sooo many people that I'm gonna keep them that colour (I've even done my Charge Air pipes the same colour too)

    Wheels are a very personal choice. As long as you love them, doesn't matter if no one else does.

    Everyone on here has differing tastes when it comes to wheels
    It doesn't mean they're the wrong wheels for you.

    What matters most is that you like them, everyone has their own taste.
    Anyways, they're a statement - it defines your car as yours.

    CHUCK NORRIS APPROVES - and that's all that matters - RIGHT!!!

    Certainly different - think the colours go well and think that they'll grow on me over time. Your vision, your choice. Nice.
