122 for four with good tyres, unsure if need refurb yet will let you know later. This refurb place do they get a good match on the gold as i've seen some that have been done with completely different colour

so i roll up at this place, turns out to be a rite dive and the house is joined onto a shaddy corner shop. knock on the door and an asian bloke answers who spoke poor english. he shows me the wheels and ow! they've been sprayed badly in a sort of coppery gold colour! in the pic on ebay they showed wheels with the diamond cut lip and the correct gold colour. So i question this, his answer was his pics didnt come out very well so he found a pic of some mint ones on internet and used that.

in the end i came away with the wheels for 85 quid

im in two minds do i get them looking how they should? or do i get them powder coated white as i love white wheels?

btw does anyone know the colour code for the gold on willy wheels?

I dont know why but I like the Prima race ones better than the Speedlines.

I will be looking into getting a set when I sort my Gbox out.
