Default Stickers on TE37s?

OK folks, my new 9.5 +12s are set to come in soon (couple weeks or so), and I have a decision to make.

The new volks are going to come with stickers on the spokes. I asked if I could order them without the stickers, but for whatever reason that wasn't an option. IIRC, they should come with blue stickers.

My current set does not have stickers on the spokes (yes, they are real, all the stickers on the inside rim are there).

I kinda like the uncluttered look of no stickers, and since the car is driven often (almost DD, except for snow/ice), I have seen many pics of stickers that are "flaking" off and would prefer to avoid that.

However, the stickers sometimes add a little extra something.

So my question to the board... do I remove stickers from the new set? Or, get matching blues for the rear? I have also thought about replacing all of them with black to go with the subdued theme of the car. I'll also throw red in as a choice.





And before the obligatory "it's your car, do what you want", I am fully aware of that, just asking for input. And, of course, this is a chance to pic-whore.

p.s. for those of you who have removed the stickers, is it as simple as a heat gun and a little patience?

With all the Vorrstoen knock offs being sold I would definitely put the stickers on. I voted for black btw.

Put them on. The stickers are clean and flow with most colors. You could try and get the Seibon stickers or get some made in that theme.

Define "irony": spending $3K on Volks yet also having cheap ebay knockoff Nismo license plate frames.

OP, get the stickers. The red stickers they use for the Time Attacks would go with your car.

if you're at the track and do that scene often I would keep the stickers
obtaining a black or red sticker to match the car might be best since you are torn between with vs without.
I prefer without.

lol, anyone in their right mind can spot a cheap knock off, thats shouldn't be an issue. I say go without the stickers, it looks cleaner. Unless you have graphics on the car, ie the Nismo ones of course, I dont see the point in stickers.

Stickers are lame! $1k a wheel and they put some chintzy sticker on, FTL. Do laser etch or something else that has some class to it. Since its a DD, I'd say a double NO on the stickers. Hope to catch you at a CONOC meet or track one of these days!
