I like those five spokes, but they would look better on a TWR or XJ-RS with bodykit and co.

The Lattice look good (I have them too) though they are so '80ies' like neon tights, drainpipe jeams and Sony Walkmen

I laughed to tears. The guys at work thought I had finally lost it.
It's actually 3 dog beds pushed into the back of the car, but I do see the large dog like face.

I do have one that does look ferocious, but is not. His name is Gunner

What are your thoughts YaY or Nay.

This is the car they came from, a real hurting future project.

And this is the car I switched them to

Which do you prefer?
Thanks for your thoughts.

If you are sticking with the 5 spokes, and if the honey comb ones are a 15", and you are looking to do something with them, I need ONE for a spare..... If you have the 5 I mean and are looking to do something with the honey comb rims.
