Your rims look nice mate but I'm just wondering if a bit of a contrast would look better..? I've already asked Josh about getting three different sets for me to have a look at but it's not really a viable option, plus I don't want to mess the guy around!

Something like this looks nice:



They look a bit darker than standard silver.

personally i'd go for the crystal silver, i was very tempted by the liquid anthracite's.

he's in milton keynes, so you could always see if he'd be happy for you to "try before you buy", i'm sure he wouldn't mind if you fitted one of the rims or even held it up against the car to see what it looked like.

I'm really tempted by the anthracite as well! I'm thinking it would look uber moody Especially with my plans to tint the windows as well.

if i get time over the weekend i'll see if i can photoshop mine into the anthracite ones

this is one i did before, except the rims would need to be darker



a non photoshop pic



is yours 5 door too?

[Ben_1uk]

Yeah, mines 5 door as well. The anthracite photoshop effort looks good, but then so does the actual photo with the crystal silvers. It would be interesting to see your second photoshop effort. I'd be glad to have a go but I haven't got the programme or the skills!

had a few spare minutes before hometime

it could work

Hmmmmm....not sure about the anthracite now. I think maybe the rim looks a little lost. The anniversary style wheel looks really nice and it would be a shame to not be able to distinguish it from the tyre that well. I've always liked the way silver rims sometimes catch the light at night as well...I think I've sub-consciously made my mind up.

Thanks Ridg!

Just a quick question...

Can you lower the back more than the front? I think -30mm at the front will be fine because of the weight of engine. However, I'm concerned that -30mm will not be low enough at the rear because there's no weight.

Any advice?
