lol np didnt think about pink, hmmmmmmmmm
this is the colour i was aiming for
did think black but dont think they would look that good due to the way the wheels is put together, i.e not the same as nutters or karls.

yeah thats exactly what i think katie, the design of the wheel is completely lost when the centres are black.

Not much point having a wheel with such intricate detail if you're going to blank it out with black....multi spokes look ok as they have gaps in between ....but that just looks solid black as there's so little space between it all.
Must be getting late if you're trusting a girls opinion...christ...lol
I think the problem with the lighter gold shade is it looks very 'powdery' because of the metallic paint....the other gold looks more 'chromey' thats the only way I can describe it. Like uninterrupted smooth colour versus powdery colour?
Maybe the texture as opposed to the shade which spoils the effect?
