Wheel dilemma - what do you think?

[moosey]

Hey guys, I\'ll hopefully be getting my yellow rex in about a month
depending on how long it takes Carl to find some black piping to go
with the rest of the engine!
Anyway I\'m thinking already of changing the wheels and I\'m lookin
at these Ultralite ones,
http://www.ultralitewheels.co.uk/WP-789-A-TEC.html

I\'ve done a few photoshop efforts to see what they\'re gonna look
like on a Yellow FD.
Just let me know what you think of the bronze wheelsd with the
yellow car.


These next two pics are of my car




All comments welcome

personall i would go with a satin black wheel to match in with the font splitter and trims... would look awsome with black rims...

i think your on the money with the style tho

I was thinking of going down that road alright but I just think the Black
is too dark and you don\'t really get to see any detail of the wheels.
It\'s a tough one.
I was going to go for black for exactly the reasons you said. I\'m putting
a 99 spec spoiler on the back with the wing part painted black and the
mounts in yellow. Black wheels would complete the look but I\'ve been
trying out options on Gran Turismo and I\'ve kinda fallen for the Bronze.
Cheers for the feedack though.

Cheers for the photos mate. They\'re great.
I\'ll try and edit your car to my colour for comparison
but the side on shot is perfect for my photoshopping.
Cheers.

Shaun, are those wheels 17\'s or 18\'s?

A couple of other photoshop options

[kermit]

Call me boring, but the last picture would be my choice.  Good old plain silver!

[shaunwil]

I think that they are both 18\'s (the bottom ones deffinately)

Hi Mate,

A friend of mine put bronze wheels on his Civic Jordan and it lookd flippin\' excellent! do it! be different (not that that is hard with a yellow rex!)

Me too! Tried chrome and went back to silver!

Always diffecult when choosing wheels mate,

Unsure what to recommend my man, i went for these when i changed mine, first pic is the alloys car came with (no longer owner of this RX btw)

[TRex]

Moosey, mine will still be the best looking \'FD\' in the carpark mate!

[Grizzly]

Good old plain silver!

Yep, Out of those Defo the Silver in 18" would look the best. maybe a set of these would set it off a bit better though

[moosey]

Well in order,
Cheers Rob, that\'s what I wanted to hear!

Gurj, I like the rims in the second pic but gold won\'t work with yellow I think

TRex, I dunno mate, I love your wheels and the front end but I\'ve always thought
FD\'s were beautiful enough the way Mazda created them!

And Grizzly, I was down in Extreme in Harlow the other day and they have 2 Fd\'s
in the showroom at the mo and one has rims just like the ones in your pic.
Looked great on a Black car butthe trouble wiht mine is it\'s completely colour
coded inside out and that\'s why I was lookin at black or at least darker wheels
to keep it goin.

Thanks for your input guys.
