[charliebrown]

Attached is the colour of my car. I'm after some honest opinions on how you think white 15" rota slipstreams would look, with a set of:

Cheers! Any recommendations would also be much appreciated

Did you take the lip off already?

[charliebrown]

Nah thats a pic from when I just bought it. Just using pic for colour

[NightKids]

[charliebrown]

Preferably i'd like dark coloured wheels with a silver dish, but fark... they are impossible to find!

dont put anything on unless you plan to drop it 4inches at the same time you get the wheels.

Who df is that scary white guy!!

[KC.]

not sure about the nuts but the slipstreams in white would look decent at least. depends on everyones opinion.

I'm going to get the flat black ones on my DC2R ( :( can't afford/find the SW388) black on black yeeeeeeee

[DTN]

lol i love the blue/white combo but its gonna be a pain to keep those white wheels clean

[Indie]

Blue nuts? I'd probably get that checked by a professional, mate.

I'd put 16"s on it though; silver, not white. I've always preferred silver with dark blue, and they're easier to keep clean. With all those potholes you mention, it sounds as if the white ones would get pretty dirty. And yeah, you've got a DC4 which is all about the looks, so bite the bullet and get some 16"s. Forget dropping it though; these guys talking about a 4" drop are insane.

Srs man, it needs a drop. The stock height looks lame, especially with some different rims on.

[u mad?]

king springs+ 16" rotas and your car would look alright

wrong!
3-3.5inch drop at the front and 2.5 at the rear is not insane...the car sits pretty high...dropping 3.5 inch is about 10-12cms from the ground

[DC2-PWR]

Just drop it to legal height or just leave it, cops these days won't leave any lowered cars alone.

:thumbsup:

[charliebrown]

A 2 inch drop at the front puts me below legal limit... how the fk you guys pulling these figures? I'm 148mm off the ground at front

[integragsi96]

my car probs wasnt the legal limit at the front sway bar....but cops dont measure from there...they measure usually from the sideskirts so just keep that over 10cms

They probably looked at your old photo and don't know that you have a front lip bro, but I'm convinced you'll be fine with a 2" drop. Otherwise swapping suspension back is an easy job.

[dc2r-0636]

thats hot!! lol
but yhh 3 inch drop is fine...the dc2/4's are quite a high sitting standard height car...

[charliebrown]

Should i sell off my front lip and drop then? Cos there's no way im getting in/out my driveway any lower... i went down to the point where i usually scrape on other driveways, went out of the car to take a look. couldn't even see a gap between the ramp and the car... no wonder my mum always has this shocking look on her face when she sees me driving off

[dougie_504]

Just drive into driveways on as big an angle as possible so you're going up the driveway with one wheel before the other. At stock height you won't have problems if you do this, even with a 2" drop you should manage - my brother did.

[dc2r-0636]

bro my driveway is like this ____/ angle the shit out of it

[charliebrown]

you want to climb the ledge right? theres no other way!

[dougie_504]

No don't climb the ledge, just don't go straight up the driveway, turn into it on as big an angle as possible IE don't turn wide to improve your angle.

[integragsi96]

yeh when my car was that low i angled everything!....should look under my car lol...pretty scrapped
