Just need to know before I go buying three sets of white rims!

Beg to differ on that one Dez most pre glued tryes are shocking, badly seated not cleaned and come adrift far too easily. And on chrome wheels will be even worse and the chrome has a nasty habit of comming away from the plastic. I'd much rather be given white or black wheels, inserts and tyres and be made to sit in scrutineering and glue them up and get them marked. That way I can be sure they will be stay stuck and will be round. i'd Rather loose a tyre due to my own mistake rather than the lottery of tyres glued in China by some kid on $0.50 and hour.
