Doesn't look to bad...

But i have the same mags and it looks so much better with a black car... Maybe its me or Chrome goes best with black cars especially on the euro...

hmmmmmm
not bad but like PUM[Z] said, IMO it has much more bling on a black car
have a look at some LENSO rims, esp. the lenso MUSE rims....my friends got that on his 5th gen lude and they look HOT.
IMO, for lighter coloured cars, eg white, darker rims look best, like bronze or shadow chrome. for darker cars like graphite and black, chrome and lighter coloured rims go best like white, silver, chrome, etc
but those rims itself are pretty pimpin.

I'm looking at getting the shadow chrome. Those wheels in the pic are actually from Pum[Z] car (cheerz Michael!) and I tried to darken them a bit but they don't really depict a shadow chrome wheel very well.

My tip is to look at some of the more reputable brands for rims - HP design (who are they?) - some people have given you good suggestions - ie Work and Lenso.

One of the traders of Ozhonda has a good deal on cast Work CR Cai rims at the moment - they will look fantastic on your Euro and are worth the money.

Those chromies don't do justice to the car......

I've updated the pics to look a little more like shadow chrome (the wheels in the top pic are actual shadow chrome ones taken from the Ozzy tyres website)

If u think Lenso is a Reputable brand then HP design is a reputable brand, Bob Janes T-mart actually don't sell Lenso's at all coz they pulled them out... Brands like Works, BuddyClub, Alstad, & Volks are good brands... But some are overated & some are just too common...

HP Designs i got to admit are good mags. They weigh a fair bit, but build quality and design they are unique & worth the money... Also they are really easy to clean which u need for chrome mags... I have no prb with them at all...If u haven't heard about HP designs well now u have...


Also Hispi doing photochop isn't gonna do any justice it makes it look more weird...

i gotta say that the wheels do look good but they are everywhere........be different and go with something more original thats what i did.

I love the rims but agree with pum(z) look better on a darker car The AJR euro(tsx) looked better with the multispoke white rims it had on when it first hit the scene !!!

I've ordered the 18" in shadow chrome. They get fitted on Sat so I'll put some pics up. The benefit of being in QLD, we're a bit behind the times up here. I've never seen those rims on a car before. Probably everywhere in Sydney, but nowhere to be seen up here. IMHO those white rims looked better too, but the wife hated them, so a compromise was reached.
