    Hey all,

    I found this photo on Fchat a while ago, but didn't note whose car this is from, and more importantly what make/model these black wheels came from.

    Anybody know the owner of this car and/or the make model of these wheels?

    Not sure if I like that or don't like it.

    Doesn't look all that bad.

    I've seen this car posted before. Can't remember whose it is. However, I do remember that it is a 2V injected 308 from Australia. I've seen the rims before as well. Not sure what kind they are but I do believe they are aftermarket rims.

    Black rims were popular back in the 90's on 308's but they were mostly BBS honeycomb and the centers were black, IIRC. I'm more an original stock fan so these 5 spoke in black well....

    Although that's not one for the purists, it sure looks great in my opinion! If we can take off the blinders that keep us from liking anything other than factory stock, it's quite tastefully done!

    they look like 355 or even 456 wheels but there are little 2 or 3 piece bolts around the perimeter of the centers which I do not think were offered - so they must be aftermarket. Compared to the other wheels I have seen they work okay.
