Thanks for all the positive comments, I must admit I am well impressed with the way the car looks now, like they say wheels make or break cars 
John I will try and get a shot from the back when i get a chance, The offset is 24 on the rears and 27 on the fronts , I did try and measure everything up to see where it would all sit as the sizes and offset are way off what most people are told to run on sierras
!
Rad of course they sit right 
PT I have that pic in high res if you want it
rs nutter it catches the rear VERY slightly I may not even bother to do anything as its so minor but I was surprised and was prepared to trim the kit and metal if i had to (may still do this and i will be able to run even wider rubber
!)
Gaz...........put it this way I told you you would get those Hocks on
!
PF Nick It was a tough choice between these and the centre lock BBS and I do prefer the centre locks but was put off by getting the exact sizes I wanted/replacing one if I bent it/running a spare etc
Must say a massive thanks to REYLAND who sorted out the order for me and got the sizes bang on

I must admit i do like them without the centres as well!
outers are anadised not polished
Johns look like image, BBS dont use a screw fitment to locate the centre cap.

ive just been reading on their website that they do a "ceramic" coating for the polished outers now. Shame compomotive dont do it. Wonder if they would be pissed off if i sent some brand new outers to them to be coated.
What about 18's? would they look shit on a 3dr?
