    Looks great Tigger! Pretty modern too. I'd love to see those wheels on a Yeti.

    They are 95% there for me. The spokes look too thick. Should you care? Nope.

    What did you do with your old wheels?

    I'm just gonna keep the old wheels for a while...just in case...you know....
    But eventually I will sell them.

    If it wasnt for your upcoming repair bills mate, I could sell them to you?!?

    If you havent already done so, id scrap the wheel treatment idea (which is utter BS anyway) and spend the money on some low dust brake pads. Personally ill recommend the Remsa pads which are awesome - soo much less dust, affordable (about $240 for the full set) and they are brilliant.

    Honest opinion - that looks great!
    I think the machined look really suits the colour of the car...I like it

    Thanks again for all your replies guys!

    In all honesty, I would have gone 18" if they had the wheel in that size, but as I really loved the wheel, I went with what they had;19" instead...

    I just think that 18" would be a nicer look against the style of the wheel. The 19" makes it look like the tyre is stretching too much to fit...

    Hmmm, I think in general bigger wheels look better, only the low profile concerns me
