neilske Member 34 Member For: 18y 4m 5d Location: manly, brisbane Posted 18/01/07 01:08 PM Share Posted 18/01/07 01:08 PM just wondering what everyones opinions were about chrome rims on a lightning strike car....I was against it in the begining but am slowly warming to the idea.I havent seen a silver xr6/t/8 with chrome rims, but I will admit that the combo is wrong when seen on a lancer etc. which is delaying my decision.but these are what I'm looking at atm.

Just a bit of insight. they do look good though!!!http://www.advancedalloys.com.au Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be the latest trend.. Every man and his dog is doing it.Take your time to find something that's unique and would look stylish AND classy..It took me months to find my rims..
