Those wheels look like they came off a medievel wagon.
As for a white car in England....good thing im not in England....lol
You're right that individuality helps makes the cars more different, but like anything its the style of "pop culture" that dictates most things, cars, tvs, clothes, music. And I know people will say be different and all, but used to love chrome rims and after having seen the current culture and they dont look good on many cars, especially whiteand therefore I am not a very big fan.
As told by the manufacturers prodocution lines, the current style seems to be rims with a lip, most notable a polished adonized lip. Just like the rims on the Supra in Fast and the Furious, and the rims Blitz produces and my Racing Hart C5's which are on my car. I am not saying dont be different or go with your own style, hell I was undecided about the C5's when I first bought them, $6000 for rims and tires is crazy and I wasnt sure if I liked them, but I think these rims are beautiful now. Often times though people are living in a different time. Remember when Tri-stars were the thing, well a set of them pops up every now and then, and god-forbid I see them on an SC. Oh well I guess thats more then .02 but oh well. I guess cars are like opinions, everyone has their own personal one.

They are 19" lol....by your replies I'm not sure whether you think I got ripped off, or got a good deal.....I believe the rims wer ein the neighborhood of $1000 each, $9and change, the tires were ridiculously expensive at the time the rears were $450 a piece
So after taxes and everything, yeah about $6000
19x9 Front 255/35-ZR19 Pirelli P-Zero
19x9.5 Rear 295/30-Zr19 Pirellie P-Zero
Odd thing is they are both Assymetrico or whatever its called, but the fronts were made in germany and the rears in Italy, or vice versa

...... I'll let Will answer the Q of if you got ripped off or not.
but 1000 each, sounds like 3-piece forged wheel price.
