I agree. I really did'nt like these rims in your first few pics,
just goes to show what a paint job can do.

dark would make em look small and you dont wanna loose the rim

spot on perfect to my eyes but might need a spacer on the rear

 

[widearch]

keep th eploished rim and get the faces red

To be honest I thought they looked awful standard, and didn't suit the car.

But that looks amazing, just shows how a bit of imagination can work wonders...top job!

not my choice but they do like pretty nice

Maybe a darker anthracite colour with the polished rim would also be cool

thanks for all the complements.
initially, i wanted to go black but everyone seemed to do that and it looked so common.
i just want to use my imagination with this anthracite colour. i used the same Weitech Hicon TX coilover from my Toledo and never changed the settings with the same rims below.

i dont think they look too bad.. how about darkish grey center wiv a pollished rim

i needed to give it some definition hence i painted only part of the centre cap.
some people tend to go all guns blazing slap all the paint on the rims but that only makes them look cheap. i just wanted it to look original like something ABT Sportsline could easily produce.

car and rims look sweet ask someone to photoshop your rims in different colours but i think the 5 spokes would look good in red same as the car

red would look too loud and boy racer ugly and to be honest a bit too ambitious.

by the way this is what the rear looks like at the moment.

the imagination to go this route came through a dream

please dont make me laugh........................,lol...too late now.
not a photoshop ( i wish i could know how to use it)

the rims are ABT A24 18 inch manufactured by OZ. So not cheap fly-by-night rims you can get round the corner shop. see http://www.abt-sportsline.de/en/

the coilovers are Weitec Hicon TX owned by KW. i think it must have been lowered more than 45mm or maybe 50mm.

 

[SHADY-NINJA]

even though the rims are 18 inch, they are noticably lighter than the 17 inch i took off the car.
