Sly Boogie :D Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Definitely looks better on 16's imo the original 15s are jsut that bit too small! Is yours lowered at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Boogie :D Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Love the front stance of the one with black rims, so -60mm is about right at the front but the back needed more. Cheap coilovers in the future then! Thanks guys, appreciated Now what colour to do them to go on a dark metallic blue escort? White seems to be the thing with blue but sod cleaning them! Maybe just silver again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White seems to be the thing with blue but sod cleaning them! Maybe just silver again? gunmetal grey ftw I thought about that but i think it'd be too dark on State Blue, being an already dark car! Hence why i thought maybe white as that works with dark colours May just go star silver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Boogie :D Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 May just go star silver good Done a side by side paint test on blank cd tonight, of halfords alloy paint and star silver from vauxhall (Hycote paint), and tbh the star silver looks a million times better, a bit brighter and much more metallic metalflake! Minds made up i reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
