To Sell rims or to Keep

[thommo]

Ive recently changed vehicles and have my rims from my old car but i really cant decide if i should put the rims onto the new vehicle, do they suit it or look wrong with the colouring... Or should i look into another style/brand. Any ideas on other wheels also ?

Thanks

keep and smash the GT-C's on!

+1! They are different to most rims on other falcons and look mint! As if this question needed asking!

[thommo]

just unsure on the colour scheme :-/

[Lonewolf]

GTC's look the goods

[ruler]

your old ones look awesome! but if you do decide to keep the standard rims, get them done black ;)

[j3rk]

Spray GT-C's black... win win.

I vote keep :)

[Scaf]

Keeeeeeeeeeeeeep!

[mitchy]

keep them, but make the centres gunmetal, not black..

black with chrome lip looks tempe spec now days. :(

[Lump]

^agreed.

100%, black centres don't work on cars that are not white.

That, or a set of RE30's

19" Meisters would work too.

[thommo]

There is a metallic black or gun metal that gtc come in maybe copy there paint code

[mitchy]

that's what i was thinking. :)

Is that a bronze ? Hard to see on phone

[AGIT8D]

Definitely gun metal.. I'm waiting to see some matte grey/GMG wheels - dare to be different?

[Halle Terry]

Stretched tyres and slam it too. I'll add you on Facebook if you do.

[upgarage]

Do not molest them by painting

If they dont suit
Sell them and buy something that does

Paint centres black is everyones universal answer for everything
sadly this has been done to death

Got pics of rims?


Mitchy what make/model are they ?

If I sold I was thinking of similar style maybe bbs lm if price was right

[AGIT8D]

Na haven't got pics of GMG matte, except for the pic mitchy posted.. I'd do your spokes in that colour.

Wheels on the GTR look like HRE's to me. High end euro rims usually dressed up on Ferrari's and the like.

[carlos spicy wener]

leave them gold.

stretched tyres + slammed, and it would look pretty tidy as far as falcons go.

[VT SS]

Put them on as they are ! I like the gold/blue

How are u goin to fit the nuts ?

I faced this problem, ie gtc needs special shape nuts with either 12 x 1.25,12 x 1.5 etc depending on jap vehicle, ford uses 14 x 1.25 i think off the top of my head.

?.? Let me know wat u come up with cause i am sure interested, as my car is wheeless atm.

Cheers

These rims were on his last Falcon, so can't see it being a problem?

Yer they do need special nuts and in pretty sure ford is an imperial thread, I got my last set from mr mag they got bulk wheel nuts to choose, $5 each though.

What about advan rs 19s ?

[Miggy]

As the GTC's are imo looks hot.

Thanks, bit of a change from the bf ute !

[Mooro]

I vote sell - gold rims and green car just doesn't do it for me - seems a bit trashy.
