   OK bit of advice lads...
   
   Got a posi blue vtr. I really like the size of my 14" alloys even though ive only gone 40mm. Sits nicely on the road without making the driving experience too nasty. Im modding the car and I want to take it down the euro route... Not too over the top but obviously small touches and just want it look european not some chaved up love wagon from mcdonalds carpark.
   
   So my wheels are all stripped and time for the colour.... What will make it blend with the euro style and obvously the posi blue paint. I wanted black but then I unsure if it will suit the style im going for.
   
   Going to be paintin the wheels soon as really so, advice needed. Cheers !

   try and get someone to photoshop the different colour wheels mate - it will help allot. as for colour - you could try a nice white or even creamy white colour

    Your not doing down the "euro" route then mate.... you need deep dish or split rims alot of little touches and smoothing then your on the way to going "euro"

    Not totaly euro, just like the sort of clean look of the euro style. White it is. Id go buy new rims but saving for a house and holiday, I have to restrict my funds.
