Thats all very well, but does anybody know what the wheels are like underneath?
I don't want to hack the trims off only to find I'm left with ugly alloys that need covering up again!
Was hoping to keep the trims in one piece as well in case I want to put them back on.
I would just buy some but the price of some nice alloys and decent tyres over here is ridiculous!

When you strip them off you are going to need to either paint or powder coat so the the color doesnt matter
