Default New wheels, have i chose the right ones?

I bought new wheels lastweek as i buckled one of my old ones, couldnt be arsed fooking about getting it put right as they were a bit tatty and very common, so i bought some BSA Motorsport lightweight rims in hyper silver, i did really like them at first but im having second thoughts.

OLD....




NEW....




Opinions please?

Personally I prefer the old ones. But then I have weird taste when it comes to alloys, and don't actually like very many.

If you like them don't let other people change your mind!

I feel the old wheels are the safe option, the ones I'd personally go for as I dont wana stand out, but blend in, clean, subtle.

The new set I reckon you either like em or you dont. If your not sure then you most probably dont really like em. Why else would there be an issue?

Just my opinions. no offence, like.

Old ones win by a mile for me

At least they only have 4 holes in the PCD centre.

Surely it's down to whatever you like?

Or is your opinion easily swayed by the views of a bunch of people on the internet?

Go jump off that cliff etc etc

Personally I like the old ones best, but its what you think that counts.

Dont let others persuade you, its what YOU think that counts.
