    definatley the 2nd lot then.
    Get a pic up of your car, and if someone is nice, they could photoshop the wheels for u.

    make a photobucket account, and upload your pics on theat site, and then make a ride section for your car. Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

    I saw a small pic of your car in your profile, need more of side on picture.
    after seeing the colour of your car, id go with the 1st or 2nd ones.
    aslong as your car will be lowered, it will look nice.

    also, i see your from frankston, a fair few of us live down this way too.

    edit, i found your car in your profile. (could someone chop the first and 2nd lot of lwheels for him please.)

    hey hsv punk...
    yes i live actually in pearcedale so near frankston and iam new to australia i just moved to pearcedale from good old germany...so i havent much guys around me to ask for a second opinion...
    the reason for the new rims and tyres is that i need def. 2 new one on tye back so i thought maybe buy some new rims as well i just have money for the wheels and rims the lower stuff have to wait for a couple of weeks or months...
    thx for your help Rob

    Don't like any of them sorry. I don't think either of the first 2 will suit your car and am sick of seeing every second car with the last ones. Go to a wheel and tyre place and pretend your going to buy some rims from them and then get them to try some that you like on your car. That's the best way of seeing what you like cause what you might see in a pic doesn't always look as good in real life.

    Id have to say aswell i owuldnt put any of them on my vt but if i had to pick id go for 2nd link. Ive been looking for the right rims to get for my vt s for quiet a while now and still havent found anything that i would like. Also makes it harder seeing you cant really see what it looks like before you buy.
