Why would you be mean about my new wheels? I know that they might not be to everybody's taste but there is no need to be rude.
The guy who sold them to me said they were ultra rare jdm alloys and that they are all the rage over in japan. Plus he gave me a discount so they were only €400 for all four!!!

I thought your old wheels were class and unique.
Anyhoo, good that everyone has a personal taste. It would be boring if we all liked the same.

I do sincerely apologise Ash, if I caused upset. :oops:

They are a spare set of wheels i have in the shed off the starlet. My 'class and unique' (cheers for that) are off as i was polishing the rim and they are going to be professionally sprayed on monday.
Heres a dodgy phone pic of the progress
