    Default which rims??

    Well ladies n lads

    I had decided on what rims I was going to get but couldnt justify the $ when I wasnt working. but now that im back into the workforce I thought it was perfect time to get a set, I went to 8 places in Perth to see if they had any but alas the rims I was hunting for were discontinued after 2010. I was hunting for Advanti Alpha's but they no longer being made

    Im now hunting for a set and have narrowed it down to the following.
    What would you recommend??

    I'm not going to say which ones you should get, but rather what you shouldn't. Personally, I was eager to get #4, until I saw them actually fitted on a VY like mine, and it looked stupid. So your probably drawn to the same lines and curves like I was with that rim, hence why it's in your final selection list, but don't do it. It's like that really hot chick that you pick up when your out on the town, and the next day when you sober up....

    I have 22" Advanti Choppers with 245/30/R22 Desert Hawk tyres. They look mean as, tried to upload some pics but the files are to big so they won't upload. There a couple of pics but you can't really see the rims, good luck choosing.

    depending on the colour of your calais, I'd say the 4th ones... I'm picturing them on a VY Calais, maybe the martini green or the passion red (I think?) and I think they would look great
