My new wheels, Opinions please

[Homer]

I like both and I wouldn't say either set negatively impacts the car. For some reason the new set don't seem to suit the colour as well as other colour cars. They seem a little to bright/complex design IYSWIM.

 

The new set would look great on a car of a different colour, but they just don't seem to work on Graphite (or whatever it's called!)

 

Bit of a bummer really after going to the expense of getting new ones

 

Edit - are the new wheels smaller diameter? 18's vs 19's?

[Ewen]

You already know what I think;)

BTW, the third poll option makes my brain hurt:d

[AndrewOW]

Too many spokes IMHO, i think 5,6,7 spoke wheels suit the Supra better, so prefer the milanos.

 

 

Or 9 spokes

 

I prefer your previous ones personally. Get it lowered a tad, and it'll look great IMO

I'm surprised it took till post 27 for someone to mention that..

[Wez]

IMO your original wheels looked much better

[Trig]

did you not sell the milanos?

whoops i didnt realise i did that

 

I cant edit it?.. Its meant to be paint the centers then another poll keep the centers silver.

[bmx1lew]

did you not sell the milanos?

 

Nope, one is slightly curbed.

 

 

 

 

But i wanted to go to 18's any way, However i did have a buyer which really f***ed me off, sods law ante it!.. I take the car off road from december to april to avoid snow and road sault, first day on the road the car gets coverd in sault, second day it snows my rear end comes out and i get meatspinned into a curb, it still hurts when i think of it

[Homer]

Are the Milano's not available anymore?

[bmx1lew]

still availible yeah, you interested?

[Homer]

still availible yeah, you interested?

 

If they're still produced wouldn't you be best off ordering a single wheel to replaced the b*ggered one? The Milano's do look rather nice on the car

[marcAB10]

yep.. i'd say there 'slightly' kerbed

 

(off topic a little but whats your avitar about bmx1lew, i keep looking at it and have no idea who it is.. sorry )

[bmx1lew]

Come again?

 

Like get a single wheel to replace the buggerd then sell them all? or sell them as singles? I wanted 18s and the milanos are 19s only.

Ah I see your point now!

 

If you're after 18's then you might as well stick to what you have provided they are the correct size and offset. They still look good IMO so no point swapping out for another set of 18's.

 

The 19's 'look' better so that probably has a lot to do with the opinions in the thread. 19's nearly always look superb on a supra but don't do the handling much good, so fully understand you changing them for 18's.

[bmx1lew]

I think if i get the centers done like this It will look better.

or like the front one here

 

 

Lew

[lambertpig]

well worth getting the new rims just to sort the handling imo i love the milanos but would never run them. i like the style of the new wheels but i think the colour clashes with you motor that would be my only issue with them. i think in a hyper black(dark silver )they would suit real good and handle which is the purpose of a super car is it not?

[bmx1lew]

My thoughts exsactly, I might even try get the centers painted the same colour as the axis milanos.

 

At the moment the car feels like it is stuck in a constant drift, the top wish bone is twisted... I find out the other damage tomorrow

 

Lew.

[dannysupratt]

I think they look awsome mate, but they would look a million times better if the car was slammed.

[bmx1lew]

any one got some springs for sale?

 

Lew.

[bmx1lew]

done a photoshop, what colour do you think i should do the centers?

 

 

Lew.

[marcAB10]

thats looking real good.

[bmx1lew]

Thanks man what colour are axis milanos?

[Blackie]

They are nice but I loved your old ones, sorry
