New Rims

[Rob's Lexx]

Right, the time has come to buy some new rims. I don' want anything too bling bling or in ya face and after looking around for quite a while now, i've narrowed it down to these few shown below. i'm gonna be ordering them tomorrow i think, so any feedback/opinions would be appreciated. by the way, they're going on a white (st. lucia pearl) IS200; so if any photoshop gurus out there fancy croppping a couple of images and sticking them together that would be cool. so.....

Option 1:

Option 2:

Option 3:

Option 4: (in either silver or anthracite...depending on what's gonna look best against the white :) )

appologies for all the white surrounds.....had a mare with paint

[Mr Morse]

No.3 first :D

No.4 second :)

Either of them in gunmetal

Others are just too busy with spokes :o

[spikes]

option 2 would look nice on a white car but you'll have to look after that polished rim. :) :)

2 would look well pimpy and bling, but thats not what you is it?

4 in gunmetal, would sporty, classy and a bit different...

i know what u mean about the second one looking bling, but up close and personal its a bit more subtle than the picture might suggest. they do make a full chrome version of that wheel....which is very bling!!!

i'm still not 100% convinced that the gunmetal wheels will suit the white car....just think it might look out of place.

black wheels...

here we go

I have similar ones to option 4 in gun metal grey, so I think they look nice

Liking option 2 as well...

then option 1 to many spokes for IS although i am into multi spokes as well...

Not a fan of option 3...

But thats just my opinion, i'm not paying for them..lol don't curb them like me after 3 months I was almost in tears

[gsportcars]

option 4 is a safe bet as they are very subtle and will deffo compliment the car.

option 3 is a bit more different than the norm but could still look very nice.

don't bother with 1 or 2

[Rob's Lexx]

yea, i'm liking 3 & 4 the most aswell. my only dilemma now, is whether to go for the more chunky spokes (i.e number 3) or the thinner spokes (i.e number 4). i do think the gunmetal colour will really suit the white car just because of the subtle contrast to the standard silver.

one question i do have for you guys is where can i get some gunmetal coloured locking wheel nuts from??? i think they come supplied with silver locking wheel nuts

cheers

Yes.......I have some I can show on Sunday, but they don't come cheap :o

[Parthiban]

Definitely 4 for me, although they do look quite similar to the standard alloys on post 04 ISs, what size are you getting?

[Fever]

I'm gonna be different... :D

Option 1 then 2...or maybe option 2 then option 1...either way I like those!!

...trust me...option 2 would look well hot on a modded IS!! I have great vision for these things! :P ...wheres one of the photo shop boys when you need em...put option 2 on an IS!!

[Fidgits]

4!

[Kazi]

No.4 then no.3

[Noel]

If you can't decide ..... get 1 of each

[monster]

Yeah No.2 is something different and would look good on a lowered car. ;)

[crazylex]

LOL

No. 4

i'll see what comes with them and how they look.....if i dont like it, guess i'll have to get a set. :D

if anybody could photoshop number 3 & 4 for me i'd really appreciate it.

cheers :D
