[joshW]

[Randomjim]

[grays3]

[Randomjim]

I've been thinking about merc wheels and colour coding all the black bits since i saw g werk's passat in littlehampton. The combination off all silver and polished wheels looked really good.

 

[joshW]

uni in the centre, visit my missus.

no worries you think it over and get back me mate, ill be waitin

josh

 

[Randomjim]

Ok buddy, obviously i wouldn't need the adaptors though.

 

[danotto]

i dont think they suit it,but thats only my oppinion i think they make the a4 loook cheap.soz mate

 

[joshW]

i dont think they suit it,but thats only my oppinion i think they make the a4 loook cheap.soz mate

Dont listen to him, hes doesn't like any of my wheels lol

yes forgot you wouldnt need the adaptors, im sure we work something out then


josh

 

[EssVier]

I reckon they look mint! Love that A4 and the wheels just set it off! One of me mates has the same wheels on his Golf 4-motion and they just look soooo good!
Keep the black bits I say, not a fan of CC'ing, the contrast suits the car well, all silver just dont look as good.

 

[rub a dub]

Randomjim - those look ace on your car, proper pimp!!

 

[bouncer--daz]

Definately would have too colour code the bumpers but would look the mutts nutts.. kinda changes the whole look of the car then though. DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT!

 

[vrbob]

Jim,

What are the wheels currently on your A4?? as i am looking at getting a set of black alloys for my black S3.

 

[joshW]

Thats it guys, keep persuading him!!

josh

 

[Randomjim]

They are Asa Ar1's 18x8 made under license of bbs. Really pleased with them think they look great just fancy a change.

Anyone handy with photoshop? Wheels is about my limit lol. Would like to see how it would look colour coded an the windows with a light tint.

I'm a bit of a photoshop Yoda, post a decent size pic of your car and I'll do the tints and colour code it for you.
