LRF4N Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Had these wheels on the zed and got them on the skyline today. They were corroded cos I used them in that bad winter before last so they were badly in need of a refurb The lip around the dish had to be removed so I thought I would go for a different finish. Went to the wheel specialist in east kilbride and had them done in smoked chrome. They turned out much darker than I expected- the smoked chrome wheel on display had loads of thin spokes and looked much lighter When the sun hits they're very reflective but we won't always have weather like this lol. I think they're a bit too dark. Thoughts? Just washed it il get better pics in the sunlight later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Nay, thinking more spokes for that car buddy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilscorp Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 They will look better with shiny used brake discs as rusty (just washed) ones look a bit lost in those! How big are they again? 20" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 + they should be green ( maybe that's just me ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 No green lol gonna eventually have some red accents on the car. They're 19s mate. Im happy with the design of the wheel even tho u can see a lot of the brakes but it's the colour of the wheels I'm unsure of. Here's better pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilscorp Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Does the 44 go past your house mate? I'm having an argument with the gf about which way it goes? As the 44A has been cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the 44A has been cancelled. not sure mate it's been a long time since Iv sat on the 44! The 38 stops across from me and the 44 used to stop up the road.

The rear had to be raised for these wheels to fit as well! but the front lip will be removed for something more sensible that will make life easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
