I never said a word. It's that wicked 19" shod Andy who should be kerbed curbed! :grin:
:embarassed:
I would be scared of pebbles with 19s on.  :grin:
It use to be fun at the garage having a car on a wheels free ramp and spinning the wheels round while looking at the inside edge of the wheel rims. Amazing how many are buckled slightly. I have had cars with very low profiles and big alloys before its just not worth the hassle to me now. Your always watching for everything, worried about the wheel, the tire side wall and for what, alittle extra looks but less practacality and more expense. Not for me anymore.

Anyway back on topic.
Lovley quality photos. Wish i had the equipment and skills to take photos like that  :sad:

Wheels are like womens breasts. Small ones are less noticed, but will never sag and will age better. Large ones will lead to all sorts of attention (both good and bad), sag and give you back problems. However, who can resist the charms of a massive pair of hooters?  :smug:

I rest my case your honours.....

A clean car and a good photographer. My car can be as clean as you like but still looks crap in my photos.
