Post by: andrewparker on January 14, 2012, 05:36:32 pm: You need a polished rim on black Monzas. Totally transforms the look.
Title: Re: Which Wheels are better.
Post by: youngy1989 on January 14, 2012, 07:45:17 pm: yeah i think im guna change to the ch's.. at night the black wheels just look like steel wheels.

Title: Re: Which Wheels are better.
Post by: Daffy on January 14, 2012, 07:51:18 pm: Silver CH's for me. Classic and classy. Black wheels have been over done IMO.
Title: Re: Which Wheels are better.
Post by: youngy1989 on January 14, 2012, 07:58:27 pm: how much do you peepz think the monza's are worth with out tyres immaculate condition. 1 has a 1cm scuff hac hardly see it tbf.

i think they are reps but still look good, 18in

Post by: Tinytim on January 14, 2012, 08:46:37 pm: Black on black for sure. It's FTW
Title: Re: Which Wheels are better.
Post by: dodds-gttdi on January 14, 2012, 10:12:47 pm: Silver CH's definitely. Altho if you put Silver or Dark Silver Monzas on it would also look good. I wouldn't recommend black CH's but that's cos I hate black alloys.

To be honest silver, black and now even white alloys have all been done to death. A dark silver, gunmetal or anthracite wheel is where it is at!
I would say that tho cos I'm biased: :signLOL:

Post by: big al on January 14, 2012, 10:55:44 pm: Anthracite/gunmetal would look nice on your car.
Not a fan of the black wheels (never have been a fan of black alloys though)

Post by: am1w on January 15, 2012, 01:31:45 am: Never been a fan of black wheels either. BBS CH alloys have the correct offset and are great looking in silver or anthracite. My personal preference is for silver.

This was when the car was on Pi springs and standard dampers. Think it was a 40mm drop front and back. Was the perfect setup for not a lot of dollar.
