smetje has the spirit of this thread - show us your WHEELS (the thread title didn't say anything about the car, and he doesn't even have his yet!) Nice!

Not for long. Since I need both winter and summer tires, I am probably going to put something sticky on these and relegate the crappy S-Lites to snow tire duty. LS5s are no longer made but can occasionally be found on Ebay for change. Too bad a 17x8-235/40 combo would not fit for the warmer months.

The best thing about these wheels is that the Gunmetal paintjob matches DarkSilver MINIs perfectly!

I've gotta ask, do you spend ungodly amounts of time cleaning those wheels?

Oh, ok. Please tell me that you take those pics of your car right after you've washed it, and that it doesn't look that pristine all the time. Otherwise I'll have to just go beat my head against a wall.

It's only a magic of light.

Take a look at this one, it doesn't look that clean compare to the one above.

Note: Color is a little off, but too lazy to fix it.

Clean wheels, a camera and indirect light will do wonders for a car's appearance.
