L33 Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 I like them in the white actually. Maybe an anthracite of sorts would work? I dunno. I prefer them to the chromes (style wise). That was my thoughts exactly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikbrunt Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 if you don't keep them i'd give the 200 notes for them too white on red is a winner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallshinyant Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 i like the chrome wheels, i think they look good with that paint work. Ha they were all wrong i could of been a pimp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I tried my best to get them black but it just wasn't happening. I've fixed the photos so that someone with more PS experience can give it a go Sorry bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 Thanks any way! The 200 was mates rates, u can have them off me for 400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Can no one photo shop these? been told mayb matt or satin black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 White to black is a nightmare bud. It just doesn't look right at all. Silver to black is OK but anything lighter is really difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I dunno, your paintwork requires flashy wheels, black don't do it for your car, saying that white don't either, if you can get them for £200 then it's worth a punt, but if I had your car I'd be on the look out for a set of good quality flashy wheels, your car can pull off wheels that others can't (I think yours is screaming out for a big dish) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dusty turley Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 if i was u i would keep the chrome alloys and just get ur tyre fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Suprafly Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I quite like them, they're off a Lexus arn't they? What size are they and are the rears wider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I dunno, your paintwork requires flashy wheels, black don't do it for your car, saying that white don't either, if you can get them for £200 then it's worth a punt, but if I had your car I'd be on the look out for a set of good quality flashy wheels, your car can pull off wheels that others can't (I think yours is screaming out for a big dish) I agree with Jay. Something along the lines of Matt H's wheels would look good or Jamie P's that he had on the red supe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Well that's def black out the question, I don't like that! Yea the rears are wider, and there is a slightly bigger lip on the edge of the wheel 265 tyres rear and 235 front not sure what there off of but were on a mates supra I would love a set like matt h or jamies old ones but I don't have the money at the moment, I'm startin to save now I've almost finished my build. Was looking to get the cheaper mania vortex r wheels which look close but there not made any more I just thought buying these would be cheaper than replacing 3 tyres on my car and also get the chromes off as many have told me to do in the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Black Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I prefer them to the chromies u had on b4, but that paint deserves a real decent alloy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) How about one of these as an alternative to the Vortex R's? http://www.rarerims.co.uk/alloys_sub2.asp?id=70&SubCategoryID=19&RangeID=70 or http://www.ultralitewheels.com/nurburgring.htm Either in Hyper Black or Hyper Silver would work IMO. Edit: They are around the same price bracket as the Vortex's I think. Edited March 6, 2010 by hoff (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L33 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 son how anyone can think a white or black painted finish looks better than a far more expensive and visually impresive chrome finish is beyond me especially on a car that has as impresive a trick paint finish as yours. Plain old white or black definatly does not come up to the spec of the rest of the car even a nice bright silver would look more classy than white or black. Dont let the car down now.
