I liked the look of them off the car, but once they went on the car, I can't say the same... sorry :tdown:

Pegs are played out, but these probably look the best out of all of them.
Too bad they weren't propus or titans with the center piece painted and the outer lip machined.

As far as I know, Titans would look pretty much identical to this except for the outer lip, if you machine the whole thing. Not sure if painting the center of the titans with lip machined would look any good. For Propus would look like any other polished lip BBS rim, I'm not so sure that would be too original.

I've had some time to get used to it. And it's starting to grow on me now, at certain angles the machined aluminum looks almost a "silver white" and at other angles it's a diamond glare, while the metallic pewter sides appear black at certain angles, and dark grey depending on the lighting... These are really reflective(but not quite chrome bling) but not over the top.

Need to take more pictures during day and night, but definately not your average pegs which I've seen in numerous occasions,

The beauty of it is that the darker paint on the insides make you focus on the outer rim, which actually makes the wheel appear larger than they are due to the contrast of colors. This was my strategy really, since I was downgrading to 17" rims from 18" multi-spoke style wheels, to be honest I don't feel these rims are any less hot..
