Thinking About Getting New Rims (*w/ Photoshop)
#1
after many comments from many ppl, and a lot of thinking, i'm now thinking of getting new rims to match the look of the car.... (coz the rotas seems don't match)

here are the pics of my car
http://www.focuscanada.net/forum/index.p...opic=10156

so what kind of rim and colour do you guys suggest (i'm thinking of 17" rims), for those of you think that the rims look good on my car already, tell me too, coz i can't decide :P

thanks

ANYTHING.

The focus doesn't look right without new rims.

id say something close to what jay has, a multi spoke, like 10 plus spokes...

a gun metal with polished/machined lip would look killer in my eyes
I wish my grass was Emo, so it would cut itself...

Did you look at some TSW Rims. I got the Revo and they look nice on a Focus. That's just my opinon :)

I like your rims allot, but if you do change them I think the SVT 15 spoke Euro rims are really nice. RIMS

Hey if you just want a change, i've got some S2 rims.. :D

i like those rims, but i think they stick too far in..... 49mm offset...(and i don't want to do spacers)

i'm looking for something 42-45mm offset 17x7

anything that looks very similar to OZ superturismo GT?? that's the rim that i want.. but too much $$$ :P

or.. does any one here knows where to get this rim cheap?

Maybe some multispoke wheels would do the trick. Perhaps some ST170's (I think that's what they're called)

any rims might be better than stock.. but he doesn't have stock wheels..

i personally like your wheels alot, i wish i could've gotten some rota's like that

how about painting them black? yellow car black rims looks good.. at least i think so :P

if not try the 15 spoke ford racing wheels (euro svt) as shown in this thread.. those look great
ZX3T gone..

I like the 17" Superturismos the best... I find the Superleggeras don't suit your car as well as I had initially hoped. Also, the F1 Cups are just too... I dunno. Something definitely doesn't suit your car with those on there.
