    Smile Opinion on rims (another one)

    Now first things first, i think i may of put this thread accidentally into the My ride VR-VS section, if so i apologise greatly. I was just going to ask for everyones opinion of putting 17 inch Tremor rims onto a Maroon VS. Apologies to Tom for having to borrow his piccy, ive had it on my pc for a while now, if you want it gone, just say.

    So thanks for all opinions!

    Personal choice. There is a red Vr around brisbane with similar rims but I think they are 18s which looks pretty good.

    Yeah, unfortunately i have to travel a fair distance every fortnight. So pretty much anything over 17 inch is pushing it D= which sucks.

    Those rims on your VS in 17 inch would look sick. Go for it!

    Come to think of it most rims suit them but i can see in my head those looking sweeet

    honest opinion, they'll look sh*t, especially at that size...

    for me, it's either a good set of wheels that complement the car or nothing at all

    if you want a nice set of 17's, grab some calais internationals second hand

    Those SS rims you have look great, but I suppose if you want your car to look like every other tacky P-plater car out there you could put that other junk on...

    Well the tyres i have on my car at the moment are these cheap crappy japanese made toy car tyres which pop and i are afraid they'll pop when i do the fortnightly trip to gladstone, and theres no point in buying new stocko tyres when im just going to go buy rims at the end of the year. So its more of a pressed decision. =/
