White leather with blue piping would look shite imho, spend the money on a decent rear beam instead

White leather would look terrible, and i personally think you will devalue the car doing it,, i like either original wheels, bbs/comp split rims,, or 5 spoke 17" Mo's

Dont think the white leather will be nice mate, after all its a cossie & you will be dirty at least once a week.
3 door are hard to put wheels on its important that they sit well at the back.
If you look at the pics of cols car on the rs7's the rear wheels are in way too far.

ok i will take your advice on board i have had 5 spoke mo's but dont think they look right had the new mo 6 spoke in anthrite does look right at all in my opinion bbs/comp split rims cost a fortune and if i do sell the car soon that means more money out my pocket i dont mind spending on it but whats the point in that incase i do sell it?but as for the standard wheels i am looking for them also but would need to be mint and my car is famous for ripping the exhaust when it launches so on standard rims would be worse dont you think?

because iam running it in and want it to look good for my mate he has offered me 10k for it but i am in 2 minds i have spent alot of money and kept the car in a garage that is £500 a month rent for 14 months just to keep it warmi am not sure what i want to do?its more sentimental to me but i do fancy an escos but once it gone i know my mate will not sell it back and if he does he would be wanting to make onit and i can understand so carlo i see you have had a few nice cars what wheels do you susgest?and i aint doing any arch work the reason i was thinking full leather is 1 to make it stand out a bit better (2)so the dash doesnt get any cracks whats the ppoint in being the same as everyone else and tagging along instead of having your own ideas and doing some thing a bit diffrent and then once done people would go thats quite nice instead of theres a 3 door same interior i would never change the look of the outside except wheels i even has just bought the giners from ford to keep original look so whats your sugestions?
