ivan Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 What do you think of these wheels on my Gunmetal? I quite like 'em but the missus isn't so keen. Bear in mind I have standard UK spec 17's at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I wouldn't buy them for the car but if it came with them I wouldn't be rushing out to replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMiFFAD Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 do YOU like them? End of the day you built/mod your car for you, noone else I think they look good by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phillw454 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Dont like the red. Its jap but old jap and looks too dated. But its your car:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 im not keen at all. red lip just doesnt fit in with anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHanky Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I actually quite like them. I think they would look a lot better though if you had side skirts, spats etc. Also TRD wing and either a new front bumper or lip for the stock bumper. They would probably suit it quite well then.

Rich Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 sorry Ken ,they dont do it for me-with the red dish they look like the old school wheels the japs used fit all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeyboy2k Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I like them as wheels, but not on the gunmetal (best colour) car. I think they'd look good on red, white, black or possibly silver. Keep the stockers and spray them gunmetal/graphite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phillw454 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Think the car looks better with standard wheels:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Look better on Naths car I think the wheels suit the car and if your thinking of refurbing the wheels in the future to different lip colour then yes that will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Just refurb the standard wheels a less bright colour, the stock wheels suit the car in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I think they look better as they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

black cat Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 the red wont be any more than 30 quid a wheel for just paint... not sure if they can part powercoat wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Thanks for all the replies everyone. It's more or less exactly what Lin and my Son have said. If I get them I'll have to change the colour. Had a chat this afternoon with the tyre place up the road. Bearing in mind that the wheels need a refurb anyway due to damage and one of them has a "ding", I'm looking at about £70 per wheel for refurb plus whatever the ding costs. That includes stripping them back and spraying to another colour. Just a guestimate as yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
