Much nicer - I love the PFL MV6 wheels but I don't think they look right on a facelift. IMHO of course.

I tend to agree with you I was never really happy with them on this car, I bought the MV6 wheels for a previous PFL omega, the current car had cd wheels with naff tyres so it was a no brainer considering the price of tyres and the fact the MV6 wheels had almost new Goodyear F1's on them, needs must and all

Hoping to sell them at some point they are all in immaculate condition not curbed although one has a small blemish
