| Re: Colouring in Wheels! :conf I thought the Octy wheels were the same basic design but with longer, more slender spokes? I'm kind of sure about that really. Unless there's another design of Octy VRS wheels that I haven't seen... What I'm trying to do is soften the look of the wheels making them look like ten spokes. IF done right, it would look quite classy IMO... Though getting it done right without spending a fortune is the rub... Agree that it'll be cr*p if it isn't done right also... J.

| Re: Colouring in Wheels! I can see why you'd want to do it the originals certainly look odd |
