i reckon you can do what you want, slithers look sick, and on some lines they look awesome, some dont. i dont really think its the fact that there chrome, but the style of the rim... thats what me thinks anyways...

[djhatton]

yeah i'm all for people going for what they think looks good. but i have no time for rediculous flat chrome pizzapans like you see on so many mercs, beemers and pretty much any rice'd up honda/pulsar/gemmi/etc etc etc because, it seems, people only go for those cos they're "sik like queen st!"

having said that, the right chrome looks fat! i saw a bbbig 70's black merc the other day with chrome wire wheels (20's or 21's) and it looked awesome and also very individual. spinners are somehow mesmerisingly awesome too... but its the combo of car that matters.... if you've got a black car, black rims imo look crap. same for white on white etc... its all about matching your rims to your car imo.

and yes slithers rims are cool but while being showy, they're not flat out bling. they look almost purposeful and one of the nicer chrome styles i've ever seen...

oh and spotted red 34 gtt fyshwick yesterday. white 33 gtr today gold bbs lm's civic mid afternoon and gunmetal gtr w/ the mesh sparco rims "YCO xxx or something" parcark across from the convention centre today too.

Spotted a new MX5 and an EF XR6 shoot past me on Commonwealth bridge this morning about 8:05, having a bit of an acceleration comparison, but then they got 0wn3d by a cop with a radar gun

(phew, and I was all ready to give them both the chop)

Oh and the Mazda was laying the smackdown

Spotted a black 32 with major front end damage on the back of a tow truck yesterday. Hope it was nobody here! Spotted a white R34 on the parkway at the same time, very nice.

On the issue with the wheels. I personally don’t like my wheels! During the current process of taking it off the road I hope to fix that. Admittedly I am a “size” man though. I love big wheels! 20s are what I am sourcing next but in a big polished dish style in 5 spoke (silver not chrome). Having said that. I saw some in chrome that just looked awesome!

If I had a choice and money was no object I would source some 20s from volk. In 19’s my favourites are the GTC’s and the blitz technospeeds.

Oh and Nath, I wasn’t having a go at you I was just saying that it didn’t look as lethal as when Jon had it. As I’ve said I generally prefer Jap spec over chrome spec. (I actually loved the way Jon made his look.) But I would love to see it slammed down on the wheels again, it will look good with your rims and that same ride height. Maybe it was because I could only see it from behind… I don’t know. Anyways probably a dumb comment to make in the first place, sorry.

MADAZ!

Spotted a black R33 gts-t with a big nismo sticker across the back window and a shopping list, in civic about lunch time today. had vic plates.....

[NathR32]

Nah it's all good Stevie, I got a lil too defensive I think lol. As I said I'm just not a total fan of chrome wheels on most skylines. I agree Jon did have a good look with it slammed on the ground, I will, but just haven't had the time to wind the coilovers down yet. It will soon I promise and will look much better than it is
