I want to do this aswell, but i'm running on the factory 14" wheels and hubcaps/wheelcovers. Got the car in January with brand new tyres on it so there is still heaps of tread left on the tyres. Do you fellas reckon it would look good gloss black 14" wheels with chrome trim and centre caps, even though they aren't pursuits?
