Mate that's rank, don't bother with the others just rub it back down.
Need to be a gun metal colour on white 3dr, 3drs don't suit many wheels or wheel colours so important to get it right.

Yeah but they do look good on 3drs as you say there very hard cars to put wheels on. And with the right off set there one of the only wheel that dose suit lol. The colour is not bad and different Id fit them!

Not a Sierra, but my old RS 2000 with anthracite MO5's on it. Should give you an idea of what they look like against diamond white.

If you have to have them then this is how they should look on a white 3dr 👍

I don't like iver on the above 3dr if I'm honest the comps are the newer style the flat face ones and the posted ones look far better. And the bottom ones are too showy for my liking but we are all different

Doesn't bother me tbh, my car, my wheels, like it as it is.
As you say we are all different, otherwise it would be boring all the same.
Had the flat faced ones on ages ago, really liked them.
Only changed as moved to 18s, then decided I wanted more of a standard look but bigger size

There was a silver E46 near me that had grey wheels like that, looked ok despite how it sounds!?

Looks really good on the black MO's Jason Think the 6spokes suit 3 doors well!
