Anthracite Raiders or Satin Speedys - Nimbus 197 Cup wheel choice.

Can't decide which looks best with my new carbon bullets and badges.

Opinions and vote please.

Satin speedys!

Anthracite Raiders, imo, to match grey and carbon.

Black wheels on Nimbus are :001_tt1:

 

[Gandy]

Anthracite all the way!!

 

[RalphyBMW]

I am going for anthracite speedies!

 

[PB.200]

No such thing as anthracite raiders.

This is a raider, if it's totally anthracite it's just a 197 wheel.

 

[RalphyBMW]

Probably easiest to just refer to them as 12 spokes, but everyone knew what the OP meant.

 

[GlassJaw]

One hand clap for that man.

Like the sound of anthra speedies

There's an UR 197 on eBay with some, they're an 'interesting' choice :/

 

[RalphyBMW]

I quite like them, certainly hasn't changed my mind;

I've sort of got a similar dilemma to the OP, gonna get some wheels for mine too

 

[Arran]

Those anth speedies are lush!

 

[Paul]

I am going to go with the majority and say anthracite speedlines!

Failing that based on the original decision to be made I would say anthracite raiders!

 

[GlassJaw]

So.......

I've just bought some speedlines - I've just sold a standard satin set as the new ones are once used cup racer mag 8j rims, they will be powder coated satin black by Monday afternoon and I will get some pics up.

Cheers for the posts. :thumbup:

 

[RalphyBMW]

Why would you bother? The 8J wheels are the same offset and won't alter handling, what was the point?

 

[GlassJaw]

I got the cup race wheels for an amazing price.

 

[RalphyBMW]

Fair enough! You sure about going for the standard colour though? What colour are they at present?

 

[GlassJaw]

White but they're more of a chewing gum shade. They're unmarked but appear to have been sitting in a dirty pit or garage for a while. There was dust all over them, like exhaust soot, and it's stained. Two applications of wonder wheels and their Still not as white as white should be.

Added to which I'm not a fan of nimbus/white.
