18" Alloy Wheels

I am thinking of removing the plastic "aero dynamic" caps on the 18" Alloy wheels. My cousin has done it to his and the wheels look much better without the plastic caps. Has anyone else done the same ?

Not thought about this.
Do you have some pics?

There appears to be a lot of unsightly holes in the wheel, so I'd leave the covers on.

Interesting, are those holes in the wheels the means by which the covers are secured?

I am thinking of colouring the calipers as well

That's a better idea.

I have a S5 EV myself and was told that the plastic fins were there for aero dynamics purpose. Personally I don't think that they are that bad, but an opinion of different wheel would have been great.
