    Hey,
    I've just had to give back my bro's VX SS rims that i've had on my car since he's finally gotten his project vb goin. So i'm back to the VX S 16s until i get some of my own :(

    So now i'm looking for some rims for the old girl. Probably get them second hand as don't want to pay top dollar.

    I was originally going to get 19's but the tyres are a bit too expensive. And $200 per tyre = no fun :whistling . So i changed my mind and am looking into 18's now cause i can get tyres for about 120 each.

    I was just after opinions of people, as to what sorta rims they think suit my car and so on. Even some pics would be good.
    I don't think I'll get chromies, as i reckon they are only good on 19's and 20's. Don't really like small chromies.

    I was thinkin CV8Z's or some a similar HSV type.. don't know the name though. But yeah not sure now. Got a couple months to decide.

    Heres my car. Tell me what ya reckon. And yes there is a dint in the front panel, some **** laid the boot into it, its getin fixed soon.

    Cheers

    I really like those rims. I was going to suggest some CV8-Z rims, but after seeing those I would say go for them.

    Pretty good price to i reckon. I would go 19s but they bit on the expensive side. Tyres for 18s are bout $80 less each so thats another good point.

    Do ya reckon small (17, 18 inch) chromies look any good? I sorta think they look good on big rims, and on small rims look a bit 'wanna be' pimpers lol.

    Would love a pic of someone with these rims on their vr/vs. Tempre tyres have a pic of a black vs but don't show the rims very well.

    I've had a look at CV8Z rims, they a bit plain for me. Thanks for the suggestion though mate.
