Makes me think of this:

I like it. White wheels on red look better than I expected with this car.

MVJ1975 · 10-25-2012, 01:34 PM

Looks good to me!

kendalldwhite · 10-25-2012, 01:34 PM

not the only one

dcamco · 10-25-2012, 01:40 PM

Looks good! Can't wait to see it with the drop.

Dadhawk · 10-25-2012, 06:32 PM

I think the white wheels are OK, but definitely not my style. Looks too Hot Wheels and too stark. Then again I like the stock wheels and tend towards liking flat or gloss black with red on all the trim. It does make the headlights look better though (matches them more)

As far as the "needs a drop" well, I haven't seen one dropped yet that I didn't immediately think looked "more wrong" than stock. I've said it before but the reason is I like the symmetry of an even gap around the tires. I'd prefer to fill the wheel well with more tire (maybe one size up tire/wheel combo) and keep the symmetry than drop an already barely high enough car (remember mine is a daily driver)

I know, I'm in the minority in that, probably a 0.05%er!

i like the wheels, but not the stickers!

Flow · 10-25-2012, 06:59 PM

On the sticker issue, I like that they add another white accent, but I will say they would look better if they were staggered - a longer one on the bottom (like if the vivid racing one was bigger), a mid length in the middle, and a short one (smaller size of Cobb) on the top, creating an angled effect into the tire.

Wow, now my design OCD is definitely coming out.

I like the wheels I would have gone different color for my first choice on the red but the white does look good and I know Ill like it better with a drop.

I know a lot of people hate your stickers but its your car do what you want there will always be someone that picks out something they dislike.

Looks good, need some clear JDM marker lamps to finish the look after the drop. PM me if you need a hook up on the hotchkis...
