Go for it, they look good. Personally I hated the standard wheels but after I saw them
glossed I fell in love, they look far better than the speedlines.
Everyone has speedlines too, be different and not a sheep.
Agreed, I've recently picked up a set of white speedlines. Was thinking of leaving them but have decided to go satin/matt black. Unless your going low and loud then you can pull it off..aka cup racer style. :thumbup1:
Booked in for Monday but still haven't decided black or white.
If they were speedlines then id have no doubt about going white, love the white speedlines with red cup spoiler, but its an expensive gamble if the white looks duff on the cup alloys.
The white speedlines are painted gloss and if the place that is refurbishing them uses PPG paints then the paint code is 229.019. The black speedlines are however satin black and not glossy.

My 197 has gloss speedlines, same type/style as cup cars and a renault brocure i have from when the cup first came out offers the same wheels in satin black or white.
I don't get what point you are trying to make. The OEM speedlines that are on the 197 were never offered in gloss black as an option, there is only one paint code for the black speedlines on a 197 and that's is satin black.
If yours are gloss black then they have been refurbished in that colour.
