Hey guys, I've got a dilemma on my hands. I wanna get new wheels on my car and I've been getting a lot of recommendations from people. I wanted some die-hard drivers advice so I thought I'd post it up on the forums.

My car.

And then there's my choices.
Either the VZ II Maloo Rims.

Or the VY Signature rims

Whats been frustrating me heaps is the fact that some say the VY rims are good cos they're some massive dish something or other and on the other hand I have people telling me the VZ rims look better and its just a vicious circle that's confusing me. Oh and ontop of that circle I'm also being told that keeping it stock also looks great. =/

I've found some pictures of what the wheels look on the cars. Hopefully it can help with some comparison.

Wheels are probably the last thing I get done to the car. But some advice really would help sort out this mess of mine.

what do you care what others are telling you what looks good and what doesnt.
are you doing it for yourself or for everyone else?

what do YOU think looks good on your car - thats what you should get.

I don't know what looks good. That's why I wanted opinions.

I think the maloo rims look better.

each to their own though, would look sweet with a set of my old advanti fusions on it in 18 or 19"
theyd suit the old man colour

Mmm thats a possibility true. But I'm not keen on making it look extremely eye catching. I don't want my car to be eye candy, just have a nice subtlety to it. I'm willing to have to deal with the prices of genuines.
