		Just changed my wheels from nimrods to 1.2s. Didn't like them at first but they've certainly grown on me. 1.2s don't stick out quite so much at the back so shouldn't rub as bad with people in the back. Only downside is the fronts stick out quite a bit more and can hit the arch on bumpy roads when turning.  
Anyhow, which do people prefer?

I prefer the silver ones though, but if they were both silver, not sure.....

Haha its actually many shades of pink. I only have myself to blame though I've never looked after the paintwork.

		It needs slamming on Tom lunns Borbet A's... Il be honest in saying neither wheels do it any favours.. I love the car & it would look epic on different wheels

Why am I thinking they need to be gold? Is that what you're thinking too?

		Don't particularly like the look of borbet A's on 306s, and it can't go any lower than it is atm would be too impractical.  
They did look pretty good in gold though, I sort of regretted it as soon as I'd started sanding!

Yeah I considered that, also thought about yellow/blue lettering, or could just leave them looking clean..

Yeah thats why I like them, sort of goes with the headlights so car looks better overall.

Yeah I thought about doing that and nearly bought some white paint, then clicked on silver for some reason
