Your getting as bad as Jakeclubby :P

Except he loved his car and you want to change yours all the time :D


Leave it how it is, I love it


aha yea i think i am :P
the reason i want to change mine a lot of the time is either down to boredom is because its satin black. and ive yet to find a look of exactly what i want. but i think i know exactly what i want now :)

im taking my spots off,
putting force racing wheels on, leaving the yellow tinted lights on
and possibly put mexico arches on :)

What offset are you thinking??
7" can look a little lost under the mexico's IMO

FN's... its in the name! except not gold >_<


the only thing is with them, they start at 7" and im entirely sure i want 7" wide yet, which is partially the reason i want the other ones more :P
i thought gold first because it contrasts well with the satin black and if i ever get the car sprayed it will still go with the colour i chooose :)

very widely offset 6" or even 6.5" or a combination of both. :P
i did love the look of yours underneath them :)

I'm really not sure mate, splits just looks so wrong on some Minis. Like you've taken a mini and just boshed some wheels on even if it is modified, you need the car to suit it to a tee before it looks remotely right.

You'd need them in silver I think :-)

hmmm i think its a photoshop thing :P
but i think your right, the application has to be correct, these will be going on a satin black mini. the other reason i was thinking gold was because it would add some colour to it, and ive never had another wheel that isnt just silver or black or both LOLOL

I agree. Some minis just don't suit splits. His does though 8). Mexico arches, 3 1/2 inch outer dish and a 3 inch inner dish will look awsome! Has to have Lows though.

And as I said on FB, left ones fo sho!

I have a set of V5's on order with Carl at the moment so they are my favourites, but the ones on the right are probably a bit rarer so it's just down to what you want. Your mini is your mini. Don't put the wheels everyone else wants on it, put the wheels you want on it! I thought you wanted to go for a rally car look or have you changed your mind now? Split rims are more of a race car look than a rally car, but again it's how you want it that counts! If you want split rims, then get split rims. Don't listen to anyone else! I think the gold would look good with the satin black body though!
