It's one of my favourite colours.
Possibly the Vauxhall snowflake wheels? Im still not sure on it, probably wont be until I see it.
Nice to see people being "anit-scene" though

Yea mate ive look at those but they only come in 19's!! WAAAYYY too big... i can get replica Astra wheels but they are 17's .. stil ltoo big i think... and i cant find any 4x100 - 5x110 adapters :\
May be a bit of a wierd idea... but im rather liking the Meriva wheels (corsa sxi also)... they have a funky lip design that i would paint Arden Blue with a Satin Black centre.. 16's with the right pcd, HAPPY DAYS!

I wouldnt put 16's on a polo, personal taste though, my mate has 18's on his mk4 golf and I still think they look too big.

Did consider it mate but:
1. it doesnt always perfectly match the rest of the body.
2. its the first bit to wear away and look naff due to amount of use.
3. im having black features: wheels, side repeaters, iteriour etc etc so it adds to the character
i did concider it tho

1 - its a small area so even if the colour was slightly out you wouldnt notice
2 - with enough coats of lacquer itd be tough as nails
3 - perhaps

but id still paint them!
it does look nice and tidy though

If its properly prepped and laquered it should be just as tough as the rest of the paint

and metalic colours can be forgiving in that sense, and they look differnet colours in certain angles/lights.
Still a sexy colour though

I agree with perkins.
Its the small things that make a difference and they stand out too much.
