hustla Member 23 Member For: 16y 2m 4d Posted 19/07/09 01:58 AM Share Posted 19/07/09 01:58 AM I recon it looks alright id keep em on... they wont always stay that bright, giv it a few weeks n they will go darker..and if u dont like them just rotate your tyres so the walls are on the inside, instead of buying new tyres lol..or u can scrub them off with paint thinners, but takes awhile...ive done it to an old set of whitewalls that faded..

For your car I reckon you need big rims, white walls, lowered, and no mud flaps to pull it off.

However, on a positive note, I'm sure it was a good idea the time but with the benefit of retrospect I'm sure you will reconsder these types of thoughts in the future...
