    I' going black with my wheels as well, but I only have Comets at the moment. I still think they'll look OK, but not as good as Pegs.

    I like Comets, but I think my car will need lowering at the back for them to look their best on my car. I don't know if you've read it, but my C70 has nivos on the back now, and is sat pretty high.

    She was lowered on BC's, but the rear offside was jiggered, and so she had to go onto nivos to get her back on the road. I'm after a single BC coilover, but I'm prepared to wait until Spring or so. Get the bad weather out of the way, and then sort her is my intention.

    Thanks for the comments

    I do get a few people saying nice things to me about it...

    Got really angry with a man sat on my ass in his mazda once ... turns out he just liked the sound of it
    Had a beemer chase me down so he could tell me he "liked the flames"

    When i got the car the wheels where matt black and i didnt really like it (although practical)
    Once i sprayed them gloss like i did on my old olive 850, looked awesome. i think it does look good with the darker met colour cars

    It's a beautiful car, and we really should have a C70 meet. We've mentioned it before, but it's never happened. Should we try again?

    She has taken a shine to it, oh well, I'll have the R as a daily, and use my C70 for drag meets and track days.
