Alloys.....opinions please

Spotted this 75 at the fort in Birmingham, what's people opinion on the wheels ? Quite like them myself nice and subtle.

Easy to clean design. I have the 7-spoke Connoisseur wheels which I suspect are the easiest of the originals to keep clean. Fancy alloys look good as long as they're spotless. Problem is keeping 'em that way.

Not for me - Anything but OEM alloys just don't look right in my eyes. They might look better on a ZT................

Same here I suppose, don't think I would buy aftermarket if I was looking to change again, although around here is a 75 with what I am sure are bmw m3/m5 alloys and that looks pretty cool, driven like a maniac though.

You know the more I look at the picture, have gone from sorta liking them to not so sure..........Were better in real life, smoked chrome really suited the chrome on the car.

Yuck, don't like them. They make the car look ugly. It looks like it wants to go off roading. Yuck.
