Hey guys had these wheels fitted about 2 weeks ago and finally got round to taking some pictures

They are 17\" Boss Xl 300 in chrome that only came out a couple of months ago.

The tyres are Kumho and are 205/40/R17.

it has also been lowered -40mm on Apex Springs

nice matey, chrome looks good against the black. i havent seen those wheels before i dont think, they suit the corsa well

back looks lower then the front a bit, got a body in the boot? or did you go with the more traditional speaker install

lol yeah no nothing in the boot atm apart from the spare and cd changer

The reason you probably havent seen them before is because they are pretty much brand new. i believe i was one of the first to have them in that chrome finish.

Just been down to Trax and didn\'t see any other car with them on

lol just cleaned it before i took the photos and believe me black cars are the hardest to keep clean.

One bit of rain and all your hard work is down the pan!

And about the spare, its only there in case i get a puncture. Should be able o drive to a garage on 3 17s and 1 13\"

XL300\'s have been around for years, but yes the chrome finish is quite new.

Seen a couple of sets (normal silver) on Corsa B\'s.

Yeah that\'s what i meant the finish is new not the actual wheel design. I\'ve always loved the XL300 but wanted a chrome finish to go against the black paint.

I was set to buy some BK299s in chrome when i happened to look on Boss\' website i found that this finish had just been released
