Had the lips redone on the BBS, so had to roll around on winter rims, which I've had recently repainted stone grey. Perfect chance to try them out and see what they would look like.

Quite a big change from the chavvy looking white rims

All in order to save for these beauties to come back looking like this

And on the car

The grey ones look quite nice, what are they? Although perhaps they should be a lil' bit lighter on a black car.
Good to see the BBS back on looking shiny.

They're off a rover, but I don't recommend getting a set, true nightmare getting them on. When picking the colour this is one of the lighter ones I had the choice off. I definitely wanted to make they grey anthracite colour, but not silver like normal alloys. If I went for proper charcoal grey they would have been a lot darker

Those rims look well good! they looked good in white as well, pretty much all the rims you've had have suited your car well come to think of it. have you painted your brake calipers yellow!

Some more small changes...
Just to give you a rough idea, picture taken without any image enhancement on the camera, i.e. no flash, no colour control
