Looks great.
I have seen a couple of saloons with these rims and they do look nice. Been trying to find a decent set for my estate but can't find a good set for less than £150, more than I want to spend.
Still, nice job.

Thank's... I found some on ebay UK seller and all of them are in poor condition. I think they're nicer on estate models..

No doubt...

OP: Nice wheels, love the colour

GM: I don't know why but I thought you had a saloon!

I'm also on the look out for a set, also less than £150... let me know if you find any and I shall fight you for them

Now Sonia, after chatting about 7 seat conversions, why would you think I had a saloon..?
Just bought a set of 5 16" Starfish ( Coupe ) alloys from the bay, with good tyres too. Not sure why they are called starfish when they are 6 spoke - when did you last see a 6 limbed starfish??
