Doyab, the look of your car is inspiring mate. I love the gold wheels on black but don't want to copy you haha so thought that subtle gold touches are the way to go


I think those wheels look great.
I think the machined lip would look good and I have seen the red lip ones on black cars and it can look pretty good too.
You can always change the colour of your brakes too.

Thanks man, but don't hold back on getting gold wheels... if want them get them. I'm thinking about getting something different. White Rota grids with mAssive concave look..... you can buy my wheels if you want :)

You are so going to have to roll your rear guards when the new rims go on.........

i had 20s on my 07 lib. given it was all for show, it made the car lack so much performance, uber heavy wheels = fail in my opinon.

I have 18s now and honestly wouldnt want to go any larger. its good to try once i guess.

I'm in the process of getting a set of these underway:

Image

have looked at them a lot and cant find any that i like as much so taking the plunge.

Going 18 x 8.5, 5x100, 44offset.
Guards are already rolled but if I need more I have a contact who is going to help me get 245s or maybe 255's under there.
Will look a treat and I'm sick of slowing down for corners :D
