Wheel Directory: Styluz S006 18x7.5 +40
I figured that I'd share my new wheels with everybody. I took pictures a bit late in a day, so they are not that great but it'll give you an idea. Car has installed HID 6K lights and is debadged. Also, carbon fiber license plate holder is installed. I need to get something to replace those hideous white center caps in the wheels tho. It is at stock height. Wheels info: Silver Styluz S006 Size 18" x 7.5" Offset: 40mm Weight: 20.9 lb Hub size: 73.1mm (centering rings recommended/necessary) Winter Tires info: Pirelli Sottozero Series II 225/40 18" Last edited by DarrenDriven; 05-11-2014 at 03:41 PM. |

Not bad, maybe tint on windows would make the car blend in a little more ?
Rims stand out a tad too much for my liking , but great job |

Why not 8.5"? Stance looks good though. I'm not a fan of the silver look. Rims have a good design, wonder how they'd look matte or polished black.
Did you do the red tail light mod? Cause if so, that looks good. I need to find the write up. |

Thanks! I really like it, so if you like contrast, you'll enjoy it.

Did you do the red tail light mod? Cause if so, that looks good. I need to find the write up.[ I'm not planning on having tires any wider than 225 so 7.5" seems like the best choice. Also, wider rim would add more weight and make car slower, I believe. As I said above, I'm not a huge fan of black on black. It blends together too much for my liking. Dont get me wrong, I still think that it looks bad ass, but in my humble opinion silver just looks really sharp. And I personally prefer the "sharp" look. The lights are actually stock, they look all red because it was dark out. But I agree, it looks really nice and I think that I'll paint them red. |

I hear ya... not all black on black looks good. I'm still up in the air. I like the Rota Grids though! They look hella sexy!

BUT - here's my question: don't you think that if your car looks like that, you better have turbo/supercharger installed? It's a beefy look, so I feel like you should have a beefy engine to go with it.. Just a thought haha |

I don't know if they bring to mind Ferrari. My first thought when I saw this was "what Merc did these get ripped from?"
I like the contrast of the wheels to the car, but window tint would really make it look crisp...solid black car with bright silver or white wheels..Mint. Looks good though, 18" without have too much wheel, good visibility through the spokes, strong looking design without looking chunky. flows well with this car. |
