  • I think a white van with white steels will be a bit too much , keep it clean looking white van / silver wheels .

    The only wheels that look good in white are Compomotives ( imo )

    • A nice deep red, chrome dome hubcaps and whitewall. wud luk sik blud.

      Not white wheels on a white van. GAF.

      A strong colour would look good.

      Black is the easy care option but hides the wheels and they'll look meh.

        I’d rather have Ebola than chrome caps.

        I think Rob might be onto something with a mid grey.

        I figured you’d loose the wheels if I did them black so I won’t be doing that.

        Silver or a light/mid grey in metallic.

        • Well done, the second most boring dull option you could have had. You sure you wanted banded? Too jazzy? perhaps some nice standard steels?

          How about pale yellow or pink with a plain black hubcap, that would suit allsorts of vans.

                Oh Reggie *slaps face* PMSL. I can’t fit standard steels over my brakes and they look shit anyway. You know this now stop winding me up!

                I’ve decided to go for polka dot yellow and pink in a desperate attempt to try and cheer you up from what I can only assume must have been a terrible recent sexual experience.

                I don’t want this van to look jazzy. It’s just not that sort of whip for me. I prefer understated. It highlights me when I get out of it wearing my cravat, diamond encrusted walking cane and violet top hat.

                Now tell me what I should start with on the dti for a 10mm pump before I really lose my temper.

                Seriously though my brother in law tried some satin grey graffiti paint on one wheel and it looked pretty sexy. I may go for this then flat it back and lacquer it. Unless it looks too jazzy that is.....

                • Got some primer on them tonight:

                  Still undecided on colour. Will roll into my factors and just se what I feel like tomorrow.

                  Ordered the tyres. Half decent and £180 for 4. Bargain. They arrive Tuesday.

                      • 1.2mm.

                        Lacquer the primer. Job done, maybe chuck some purple metalflake into the lacquer to set the top hat off nicely

                        • BMW Space Grey:


                          Look like normal silver wheels after 214 miles on the M1 in June.
