mmmmm…… Lower!!
« on: 11 November 2007, 23:04 »
I have 16” and I’m starting to get the feeling they look to small!!



Two ways I could combat this is;

Obviously upgrade to 17”
OR
Go lower than the already 60mm

I really like my current 16” BBS and don’t really want to get rid, would prefer to go lower!!

Any thoughts/recommendations/advice as to going lower than 60mm or is it better to upgrade to 17”

looks good mate, I think its the black on black that gives the impression that these might be smaller,

leave as is or change to 16" silver finish, IMO.

Gonna hangout with the wangout
