Mike C Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 these wheels on this car Imagine them an inch bigger, but probably visually looking a bit more and with big fcuk off brakes behind 'em looks the tits IMO cos the dark spokes set off the paint and the tints and the chromed rims set off the rear lights and it's soon to have very "bling" clear side repeaters, so not many wheels will pull both sides of that coin off. And they've gotta be the best style of wheel for showing off big disks and calipers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C Posted July 11, 2005 Author Share Posted July 11, 2005 (edited) I thought that when I 1st saw it, but only cos the photoshop ain't the greatest. Not knocking Mike who did it cos he's the PS king, but just cos the pic ain't the greatest, but best I could find from the side. The wheels look a little "bent" and much smaller this is what they really look like in the arches with some proper brakes behind 'em look shite imo dont suit the car needs lowering to pull them off very true about the lowering. Without it being lowered, the wheels and arches will never look right. The 18's will raise the whole car, then it can be slammed to fit the arches and keep the enuff bumper clearance this is the original pic: and the only thing that lets the car down is that you can smuggle these pair into the country under the wheelarches. But if u lower it, the front bumper will be scraping on the floor. Put bigger rims on, it will raise it so u can lower it and the wheels will fill the arches and the bumper clearance would be the same. And Bob's ur uncle, the car not only looks a helluva lot better, but it'll handle like it's on rails compared to how it does on standard suspension Edited July 11, 2005 by Mike C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 (edited) Would probably look good just hard to tell with the wrong lighting in the photoshop. The more I look at it the more I like it Edited July 11, 2005 by neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted July 11, 2005 Author Share Posted July 11, 2005 Would probably look good just hard to tell with the wrong lighting in the photoshop.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> that's what I'm thinking, was a great photoshop in terms of getting the wheels in, just they will be quite a lot bigger than that and the picture I provided was shite, only all the better pictures there are are from crap angles for wheels oh and the car is filthy there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackster Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Hmmm, not so sure on them personally, once i've changed the headlights back to standard and fitted the new crystal clear side repeaters i think they will look to dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rims are a lot brighter in proper light than the pic shows obviously u can try 'em 1st anyway see what u think but they make the car look proper mean and moody IMO, just like its owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
