Thanks guys  :happy2:  I really like the Satin pescaras but I think they are gonna need a silver pinstripe. Neils wheels here, are really set off with the thin pinstripe.



Also regarding the other wheels I bought at the start of the thread..... I think I am gonna sell em. But before I do, can anyone photoshop them in gloss black?

I know its a long shot but....If anyone with a set of 18" Monza's fancies a swop for the alloys on page1 let me know  :wink:

Well today I had a play with some silver pin stripes to see if they looked ok. They are just the set you buy on eBay for £3.99. I wanted to try them before committing to paint. They are 6mm arched decals, but I think if I have em painted properly I will go for 4mm.


What do you think? Should I leave em all black or get the pinstripe?  :smiley:

Crappy phone pics.  :ashamed:

Definitely 'pinstripes' - They visually help separate the black wheel from the black tyre and look smart instead of that 'black steel wheel utilitarian' look.

I know, I know.....I have had em on a week already, but I haven't had any time to clean the car  :ashamed: Its so filthy, I am embarrassed to take some pics  :ashamed: :ashamed: :ashamed:

All I can say is, they are perfect :wink: I am in love with my car all over again  :love:

I did manage to do the screw-delete mod today though  :happy2: so hopefully I wont get that annoyed little rub anymore from big bumps etc.

I am in two minds as to getting some new tyres anyway. I have seen some new 225/35/R19 Conti's that are going cheap. These may solve my rubbing issues, because the tyres at the moment are 235/35/R19.

My monza's are 8Jx19 ET45. Do you guy's think the 235's will rub now I have done the screw mod? or Should I go for the 225's.

Carlo.  :smiley:

Problem with black alloys are that pictures never do them justice. They always look better in person. However, 'pinstripe' looks  :happy2:

Like the pinstripe! pics of monza's needed

I would definately do the 225 tyre or maybe even a 215 tyre! I have 215's on my wheels and they are 8.5 wide and no rubbing at all.
