    Default Wheels for a VS

    Hey guys,

    Like some people, im not a big fan of massive chrome wheels. some cars they looks tops! and on other not so good.
    im looking for a nice set of holden wheels for my vs.
    the wheels im looking at at the moment are:

    VR/VS Senator rims
    VY Senator rims
    VX R8 Rims

    any other's i should be looking at?
    also, if i were to get a side on photo of my car, is someone able to photoshop some rims onto it? just to see roughly what it would look like.

    cheers ben.

    vr senator rims are different to the vs senator rims, just incase you didnt know.

    i currently have vr senator rims on my VS, and i think she looks hot but i dont care for big rims atm. What size rims are you looking at? that will possibly rule out the VR n VS rims if you want 18s and up

    What color is the car?

    sexy, sexy car!

    i think the senator rims on dark blue would look smick! if you want, visit the VR-S my ride section and check out the pics in there, you may find a pic of those rims on a dark colored car for comparison.

    The VS senators are 17's

    i Believe all VR-VS HSV rims are 17's
    VT-X HSV went to 18's

    your best bet is ebay or even trading post, but you'll have to be paitent, they dont always come up.

    maybe wheelking might have them, but i believe they'll be copies. you'll have to contact HSV to see if they have any, but i doubt it being 10years old

    I'm in the same boat as you atm thinking of what wheels to get. Unbelievable how popular these big chromies are these days as I find them disgusting. I'm thinking of the VZ R8 wheels or something from the BBS range.

    Class and style over bling any day of the week imo. Only one of them is going to date in time and it ain't class.
