Yours is the closest I've seen to what I'm thinking but - and I hope you don't mind me saying this - it's just slightly off in some way. I have black now and it's a safe choice but I'd like to do something a bit more unusual.

Found this today by accident

https://kingsleydefenders.co.uk/configurator/d90

It’s a configurator that allows you to select colours and wheel types - even wolf, then colour code them.

Not perfect but not bad at all.

Woohoo, after giving them a freshen up over there festive holidays I can join in with the group appreciation of wolf wheels. Lovin' the look.

I did consider silver/gunmetal and black but I'm pleased I kept them white.
Personally I think it works quite well with the Oslo blue

It does seem so, but with the price of buying the rims and tyres i would like to try a set on Millie first to see the difference either way Thumbs Up Clayton.

I have toyed with the idea of putting the 265's on but with all the pro's and against them on the 6.5 rims, i'm not going to Sad Clayton.

So on my hunt for a suitable rim to go on Millie i came across these

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235861568556

My question is, are they a true 16 x 7 or have they been banded from a 16 x 6.5 to make the 16 x 7 ?

I have sent them a message asking this very question but i have not had any reply as yet Sad they don't have a phone number to contact them, hence the message Rolling Eyes

TIA Very Happy Clayton.
