yeah just go to a refurb place and they will sort it, you dont need a full re-sprayed wheel if theres one place thats bubbling anyway.

Each to there own and all that.

I think they suit it, although the ones in the link would look good(like my wheels ) but you dont like those so never mind

Anyway keeping those will mean better acceleration because there smaller! thats one of the reasons ive kept mine
