    Default Wheels for VX Calais

    So I'm still iffy about what wheels I want to get for my VX. I like the look of the VY Signature Senator wheels, but I'm also looking at the VE Supersports (20"), and I can't decide. either way it's an investment and I don't want to make the wrong decision.

    Either ones look horn, but the sigs are starting to get a bit over done. Super sports FTW!

    I do I like the supersport, which is what I put in the WTB section, but for $1500 I need to save abit more..

    Sigs over done. Pentagons over done. Super sports are nice.

    Yeah I don't mind the look of the speedy cheetah's. If I cant get these supersports cheap I'll look into them more.

    what colour car are they going on? If its a light colour I would go black pentagons with machined face, or the speedy cheetah's above. Dark coloured car would go anything silver.

    uniacidz I just replaced a set like that on mine i thought they were starting to look very "last gen" I did love them for ages though until I saw cars getting around with heaps better rims (were 18's though). But hey everyones taste is different, if everyone liked what i liked there'd be no body kits and all cars would have the colour combo's i mentioned above haha.

    They're supersports with the plain finish, and gutter rash... I could have got a set of pentagons for $1650 w/postage and tires... but eh I like SS's more
