I have Celtic’s on my car and, have just bought a set of Gemini’s.
Wife and son No.1 prefer the Celtic’s, myself and son No.2 prefer
the Gemini’s. Would like to know what you think.

Personally I would stick with the Celtic’s. Send the Gemini’s to my
home address - I’ll pay the shipping. ;-)–

I must admit I have always wanted the Celtics. Infact one of the
factors for buying the car I have was the Celtics. If the Gems are
an inch bigger then I would think about it, but if they are the
same size then I guess its personal preference.
I like the Celtics as they are easy to clean (big bonus) and subtle
as a rabbit punch from a ninja on a dark night in the fog!!!–

Celtics are nice and look very funky when you are driving slowly as
they catch the eye with each vane coming into the light
individually in a kind of subtle flashing effect.
The big question is, do you pronounce them Sell-tik like the
football club or Kell-tik like the Irish/Scottish tribes?
As for Gem-in-ee or Gem-in-eye… :-)–

Peter,
Kell-tik and Gem-in-eye.
As for the Kell-tic’s looking nice when you drive slowly, does
anyone drive a 4 litre V8 slowly!?
Counting all the replies, both on and off list, it’s neck and neck.–

Lusstor,
The Gemini’s are much easier and quicker to clean than the
Celtic’s. They have a lot fewer sections.–

Exjay,
The Gemini’s are a genuine Jag wheel, they were available as an
option on the XK8’s.–

Mate…the Gemini’s don’t even hold a candle to the Celtic’s, they
are a superbly designed wheel…the geminio’s belong on some poxy
2 litre hatchback ;o)
Cheers,

I would think anyone from London struggles to 'owt else lad…
By the way, are you sure the Gemin-ee’s fit your car? They are an
X350 wheel aren’t they? If so it’ll be a problem I believe…–

Naaa, not sure I agree there!!! I think the sweeping shape of
the Kelt-ticks are easy to run a sponge over, I think the Gem-in-
eye�s have smaller areas and are therefore more difficult to get at!
All bow down to the mighty power of the Celtics. ;-)))–
