Personally though i think they look better on a darker car. They were fitted to my lowlight when I bought it, I really didnt like them at first but they have grown on me!! Best thing ive found to keep them clean is jif, sorry cif........<br>Image<br>

I have seen (Frost I think) whitewall 'washers' that once the tyre is let down they are fitted to the wheel, when blown back up they are trapped between the tyre and the wheel, dont look bad!
