This pic inparticular seems really "odd" to me. It's my car, but someone has swapped the rear plate over. A very strange feeling! A spectacular car collection Paul. Like you, I prefer the chrome on the Rovers, but then, I'm more than a little biased. Cliff

I don't think there is such a thing as 'OEM' with our cars as no two cars that are the same specification are ever the same.
The black alloys look amazing, menacing, I would say. Admittedly black wheels doesn't always look right but it does with the colour of your cars. I think any MG ZT V8 should be menacing as it's not a car for the faint hearted.

I'm a massive Apex fan and indeed they look grand on yours, but at 2003 wouldn't OEM have been straights? or were Apex an option on Mk1's I know Mk2's were apex as standard. and as I say I prefer Apex anyway but if you have to change them to straights for oem sake i'll hapily diispose of your apex for you I'm helpful like that
I also like the team dynamics too though but Compomotives would be my aftermarket buy... Cracking Buy anyway Good luck with her.. |

Yes, I used Wheelsmart @ A1 Powder coatings in Woolston. They specialise in alloy wheel refurbs and to date have refurbished two sets of Apexes for me in shadow chrome, and a set of Straights in Silver Sparkle. The Apexes have two layers so they charged £70 per corner for those. www.wheelsmartuk.co.uk |
