I saw you mentioned what wheel size you have, but what about offset, spacers, suspension, etc. Your setup looks great, especially on 17" wheels. Thanks!

Oops, I see offset: 25

These cars turn enough heads as it is. Could only imgaine the looks with crazy color wheels on it. I still want red wheels on my SWP BRZ!

Looks good man! I almost did that color combo on my 240 since it is red as well.

I present you my rims, burnt copper was the colour's name.

Has more metallic flake and cooper look in person. Plus they were dirty here, never stopped raining last weekend.

Did you use the white base coat? I just dipped my wife's wheels and it should have turned out blaze pink but it turned out orange instead. She said she doesn't mind the orange, but I know she really wanted the pink. Very disappointing. >.<

Gotta do the white base coat. I didn't know. I ordered 6 cans of orange from Home Depot thinking I had more than enough. I used 5 on the first 3 wheels and they looked like shit. 2 coats of white and 2 coats of orange on the 4th wheel looked a LOT better.

Yea, I used 2 coats of white and 4 coats of pink. The wife is ok with it but it's disappointing that it didn't turn out quite right. I'm pretty sure she has the only Passat TDI with loud wheels in the area though, lol.
