i'm currently trying to decide on a new set for mine as i fancy a change.

the rondells look awesome but i'm bored of them now

anything from ace/boss/xtreme/chin-pao/superhyperdriverchampionwheels always look a little wrong one saffs

comps look superb but they are common, and theres a reason for this
(even if they are a small fortune)

do a search for wheels in the gallerys section, theres lots in there.
