MarineIguana Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Damn looks proper nice with those rims on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 do you reckon they look too small? it was 15's i had before but with a 50 profile tyre, these are a 45 profile so leaves more of a gap in the arch, i prefer the look of 17's but the ride is way too harsh, but also dont want the rims to look to diddy for the car lol. what you reckon?
