Default New wheels for my wagon.... Like them??

Hello people. Got myself some new wheels for the old girl a couple of weeks ago, and decided to take some pics of it last night before we went to a meet. What do you all think of them?

Before.....



After....












Cheers!
Mike

Exactly what i thought when i saw them. They look like cheap plastic silver hub caps. It really degrades whats looks like a really nice cossie, Sorry

Atleast you can park it and not worry about someone knicking your wheels with these on

I love 3doors on standard rims.......these wheels would be awsome if you were using on the track.... nice to have the choice........

I think they would look better in white imo
