Your Car looks toally Horn Mate, very well done. Go and get the springs reset so that it sits on its nuts and it will look tuff as.
Your Car has just knocked the wife off my phone screen saver on. Some thing to inspire my rebuild.

They certainly look "racey" but would they look better colour matched to your paintjob???

To be honest, I dont think I like them that much. Pretty sure I'll just stick with my hubcaps!

Those wheels look "Phat" bro! I think Bris could be right. Maybe the bumper mounts are upside down putting it on an upwards angle, I'm sure you'll sort it out.

those rims in black with the polished outer look totally horn, but keep your options... I mean, sometimes I want to go hubcaps... other times I want to go watanabe style (when I have had them blasted and painted).

Alistair, Bellett looks in it's element. They have a habit of making modern cars look big and clumsy.
