Good point, but then you could also argue it's actually a £30K car so parts should be looked at in that aspect.
My trouble is that I see so many people pouring £5K+ into the car to make it heavier and slower by adding all the pretty bits, and that makes me die a little inside
You can't really see them unless you take the wheels off, mine are the standard silver I didn't know they did different colours
They do make a nice difference to the feel of the brakes
^^^This. Get the plain ones.
Plain ones and coloured ones I asssume perform the same with these as it is only asthetics. So does it really add any weight? Just seems nice to get gold ones to match. Costs the same. I'm not a fan of putting things on the car unless it improves performance.
