Yo dudes..

Had 4 sets of wheels for the caddy..

but i decided they were not the look i was going for..

just to let you know, its a USA/euro style, hot rod/smoothed euro look im going for..

So nice and low, subtile, with american influences like pinstriping and white walls..

This brings me to my wheels..

Ill be puttin the white wall adapters on, so the tyres LOOK like white walls..

but the rim itself has got me stumped..

do i paint them?

they are like this;

with the centre caps..

i thought RED with the middle bit chromed.. but i dunno if it would look right..

IDEAS please Icon_smile

do you still have those you bought from tiibz?

nope, they went ages ago im afraid Icon_sad

i loved them wheels.. but someone made me an offer i couldnt refuse!

If its the Jetta rims I brought you (or some Vento/G60 ones):

Mars Red wheels, chromed cap, whitewalls and skinny/stretched tyres.

Or if you want true rod ditch the chromed cap for that Salk Lake cruiser gig.

What do we think!

So many combinations!

Ditch the cap and those blue tyres. Paint em red. Then fit whitewalls

so your saying ALL red with whitewalls?

LOL at the blue tyres.. they wernt meant to be blue Icon_biggrin

I like this one the most Icon_smile

Think, with mat black paintwork, red pinstriping, chrome mirrors, headlight eyebrows and grill surround..

WOWEEEE

oh, and whitewalls of course.. Icon_smile

gonna PS is later Icon_biggrin

hmm, actually, it might all be a bit too much with whitewalls too..

hmmm

blue tyres ftw :thumbsup:

You need to make a decision on how flashy you are going really.

Dry Lake or Street Rod. Minimal chrome, moon discs, lightened bodies, minimal lighting, matt paint, pinstriping, hotrod graphics, hand painted race numbers/speed shop names, whitewalls, skinny tyres and rake. Depends how far you want to go.

Here is some inspiration.
