Black and black. Boring.
White isn't so much a bandwagon people are doing mpre white than.blacl.as black was the norm id say there both around the same.now.
But black and white wheels especially when they look rally andade to be white.

white in my opinion as with all them spokes on the alloys gives it a rally look. I want my wheels white, not bothered if its band wagonish or not, its what i like.

yeh i love the rally look! its exactly what im aiming for and tbh, it may be bandwagonish but as you said, im not that bothered. everyones car is unique in its own way!

dam right lol, also even though loads of people on here may do the same thing it doesnt really matter if you do aswell as for me i dont see many si's round where i live so for the people i drive past its always gonna be unique

dint mean to be harsh with the band wagon ting
im doin my wheels white buts thas cos iv wanted white rims for ages jus never bothered doin owt bout it
round my end its the same old' another car with white rims' yawn
but its all down to what you want
as i said earlier in this or the other thread keep em white as they look like rally mags anyway
any other colour mite just spoil the look of them

good point! ive seen 2 max! and they are obviously family cars etc for the school run.

darren, it wasnt harsh at all mate, your opinion and if thats the story at your end then fair play. tbh there isnt many white alloys round here so i think it would look good.

do 2 white and 2 black... mix it up a little. every other week you could change it round. have 1 side white the other black... go front whit back black or opposing corners the same coulor so it looks totally mixed up. there cant be many other cars doing that

i heard lynx works for getting residue from stickers/badges off just give it a blast and it freeze dries the glue which then rubs off.

i agree about 35mm drop full system. dont want to ruin the standard shocks within weeks and then have to cough up for new shocks anyway. chris is just a freak for arch gap aint that right chris

Probably best spending a little extra on something better, but you never know, depends how long you end up keeping the car for.

going to rub down my drums and calipers and do them hammertie blue (only colour i have atm). this is instead of the rust look

i am led to believe that the caliper can come off to be painted but not fully off, get my drift? any tips will be appreciated.
