Hi everyone,

I am looking at getting new wheels for my car and the Dolce DC12 has kinda taken my fancy.
However I have been unable to find a pic of a soarer with them on. Admittedly, I am not the biggest fan of Chrome wheels but am willing to give these a chance if I can see them on a soarer first. My soarer is silver.

I have done a search on google and on the forums with no luck.

Thanks,

Emille

I was considering these when I was looking around for rims about a year ago. In the end I ended up going for some G-MAX rims instead as I preferred the look compared to blinging chrome. I think I did see a pic of these on a soarer once but can't remember where. I think what I decided was the Dolce rims looked good on their own, but once on a car it really didn't do it justice unless the car was a fully decked out show car. If your going for a nice clean look, I don't think these are the right ones. My 2c

Yes i do.
And they look a bit bling but once you see them on the car itself,there not that bad.
But they will look a bit bling if going onto just a stock looking car.ie

Upload

Upload

Once lowered,tinted windows it will take the look of the wheels away.
I had a lot say yuk to bling, but once they see them,on the car they tend to change there mind.
And say ,your right there not that bad.
So i say if you can go do to the tyre place and get them,if in stock put one on for you.

No those would look terrible on a Soarer. The Celsior almost gets away with it, but even so looks way to American Ghetto for my tastes.

Haha thanks for all the replies guys.. Yeah after some more thinking, I realised that I would regret it if I went for chrome rims.

Thanks again,

There has to be chrome rims out there that suit a soarer, just gotta find it. I personally don't think these ones suit. I was initially considering chromies as I've got a black soarer. All depends on the look you wanna go for. Good luck

Well to be honest I am not a fan of chrome wheels at all, it was the design of the DC12 that made me wonder if i should change my mind. But they would definitely not suit a soarer so it is all good.
