    Default colour coding...

    i have been suggested instead of getting new rims.. maybe i should just lower my car (what you reckon SSL's or SL's?????????) with the current V5 16" simmons i have on there and maybe colour coding the rims?

    just wondering what exactly does this mean.. may sound like a stupid question i know but yeah

    also wat do u guys reckon it will look like any good??

    thers some pics of my car in my albums... this keeps freezing everytime i try to upload pics here so yeah sorry about that....

    cheers in advance

    Colour coding is simply painting parts the same colour as your car.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    Not a fan of those rims. Maybe just lower for now though and get new rims after.
    Forget colour coding them. It would just look cheap

    yeahh im not a fan of the rims either... ive been on the Brisbane commodore car club site and been askin for suggestions of rims... i want some nice ATLEAST 18's black rims

    but they said maybe i shud look into colour coding them and lowering it.. might look a bit tough and simmons are pretty strong compared to some of the wheels on the market now.. so yeah lol

    dunno just a thought but thanks for opinion mate! appreciated

    cheers

    those wheels painted the same as the car would look good. leave the silver lip just paint the white. you could also do them gold. they are for an older model but will still be good.
    lower it an inch and she will look good
