Default Finally decided on wheels on My st220

Finally bought my wheels after lots of thinking and here's the result.
What do people think? I'm really happy with them

I thought if I kept them similar it would be ok. There 20" and cars lowered 50mm and there's no cut, rolled arches or spacers either. No rubbing .

Looks nice

I want to change the wheels on my ST220 estate, but its hard when the stock ones suit the car so well.
What profile tyres are you using ?

Tyres are 235 30 mate. I think any multi spoke would look good. I just wanted to be a bit different. And happy I did now

Just too costly to run mate, they really aren't cars you can use as a daily driver forever unless you have massive pockets! Needed loads of work doing to it and I was using a tank of fuel every 3 days just for work so I decided to get rid in favour of something that does 700 miles on a tank of diesel!
