    Thats what i mean! I think you would be better of selling those grabbing some vtr or vts alloys and spraying them
    
    Just my opinion anyway!

    Spray them black they'll look good, you could have them chromed for around £45 a wheel.

    Then that would be a complete waste of money.....I was replying to the "spray them chrome" type comment rather than actually looking at the already chromed wheels.

    For what it costs to buy chrome alloys you would be better to sell them and get some new black alloys... I also think they would look turd black, there is to much space showing on them... if your going black then get some VTR/VTS wheels.

    BEST THING TO DO mate is to ask someone to photoshop them black for you, that should give you some idea as to how they would look, love those alloys though, there what i got on mine, except mine aren't chrome their SHADOW chrome!
