Love the wheel design, not a fan of the text on them though, I'll probably come back to this when my tyres next run low, thanks for the info!

EDIT - Anthracite would look good IMO...

Or gun metal grey...

That glossy anthracite looks really good! Will discuss with the wheel guy

Oh by the way, here's the inspiration for me changing my wheels, these are 19" BBS CKs on a car I spotted on a facebook group. Proof that the internet is not good for your bank balance (or ride quality...)!

Gray Anthracite of mine, just to lure you further :P

btw - C30 on 19' looks REALLY nice...

Hehe!

And yes they seem to work well – visually at least!

OK, new wheels now in shadow chrome and on the car! 19's really do look great on these I must say. New custom cat-back exhaust also fitted which has added some presence and released more of that 5-cylinder noise which is great... just about the right level of volume for me without being droney or too asbo! Shame Flickr doesn't allow videos though so you can hear the noise

Have you found any rubbing issues or problems on full lock? Also what size tyres have you gone for?

I'm not changing from my standard 18's, but they certainly suit. Looking very nice

Thanks kmb!

No rubbing at all thankfully, I did wonder if they might. Tyre size is 225/35/19 across all four. Will test with my sat nav to determine any speedo difference too.
