Well these are my rims:
Work Eurolines
F: 18x10 +26
R: 18x10 +13
Yes I know they are too big for the car, and the tyres are stretched, wrong offsets etc etc.

(99/100 Its the drivers fault when someone runs into you, not due to wheels with excess camber or stretched tyres. I've been run off the road far too many times on my motorbike thanks to strait of the boat dumbasses that don't even use mirrors or check blindspots.

Unsurprisingly, I hate them. Looks like it came straight out of South Auckland, just needs some 140KG drug dealing pimps with loads of gold chains hanging their arms out the windows - you know, the kind of guys the cops don't pull over 'cause they are scared of them.

Long as you love em though Luke. Though having an agile car that responds correctly under braking etc can make the difference in avoiding the nutter who is trying to run into you.

Well im into vip. Vip started with japanese kids modifying their cars to look like the yakuza, hence the "gangster-ness"
I love my car to bits, and feel 100X safer in it that on my bike, sydney traffic is soooo bad!

I do like that Marc, very classy - but I'm a lazy so I'd get pissed off cleaning them (the black powdercoat is a damn good idea though!) - thats the main reason I stick with my Supra rims - they are very easy to clean.

Mark, perfect wheels for a soarer. I have similar wheels but I have an imperi cap in the middle. Has anyone heard of imperi? I can't find any information on them andI've only ever seen another set once and that was on another green soarer funnily enough.

SSR professors are the best looking rims on a soarer!
and I reckon those rims at the top are like BBS RK copies.
