TOASTED · 02-07-2008, 03:09 PM

**Sorted** · 02-07-2008, 05:13 PM

Not a fan of Black Rims but like to see what they look like on my car

Always thought why pay heaps of cash for a nice set of rims when no one can see them............lol

MotherNatureVer2 · 02-07-2008, 05:15 PM

But that all depends on what they look like on the car

If you have an issue with a moderator or moderators next time take it to PM. Public outbursts like this are not tolerated here.

**Sorted** · 03-07-2008, 01:07 PM

Stalker......... and i thought you had posted as you had done a wheel chop for me

RG · 03-07-2008, 01:14 PM

Just for the record I say the silver ones, I don't think the Dark Agent rims would look all that great up against burgundy.

Untrue, I only pick on those who make ludicrous assertions or type like idiots.

Oh wai............

If you have an issue with a thread closure, raise it with somebody via pm, Stamping your precious little feet will rarely get you far. Same applies to if you think a thread is vapid enough to bore even the likes of you.

I will assume for now that this is yet another of those stupid things you did while drunk, but will point out further that you know damn well where the door is or if you wish to continue like this, will happily show it to you.

The protocols are in place, use them.

The black wheels would look tacky at best, but then, I'm old.

TOASTED · 03-07-2008, 01:25 PM

ok will do mate, i did not mean any offence or for it to seem as an "outburst".

Am having trouble getting this old mind around the photoshop program, It doesn't like the serial number that I have with the disc for some strange reason ..... may be a vista thing too.

Will try to get the old frail mind around another program I have :P

Not a good thing calling me old ............

TOASTED · 03-07-2008, 04:22 PM

TOASTED · 04-07-2008, 10:24 AM

im gonna say im older so i fit in more. sorry getting off topic.....
Definately the black ones.. there we go back on

XXRR-50 · 07-07-2008, 10:05 AM

Sorted, my vote goes to silver ones, imo they would suit you're car color(regency red?) much better. Dark Agents would look good on a white or a red E-series.

Are you getting them from Wheelmags? The best way to decide it is to go to Greg's shop and ask him to put both styles next to your car. I did it twice like that so far and it works. Photoshop is good to give you an idea, but seeing the wheels in real life next to/on your car is much better.

Cheers,
Bud

**Sorted** · 07-07-2008, 01:06 PM

Yeah I think the silver ones would go better but i would buy right now if they had Silver with machined face the same as the Cobra Rims Cam.

I am getting them off Greg (Wheelsmags), he didnt have any 19" Pre+Au Cobra Rims so I thought I would get the F6 ones but machined gace would suit perfect and I am not too sure about painted silver yet.

I will go and see him and have a look at the rims next to my car, as you said its prob a better idea than photoshop

Thanks Bud

Cheers, I was about to suggest the Cobra's too. You're right, machined face would be perfect. Maybe get the painted silver ones and then machined them. It would be more costly but unique.

**Sorted** · 08-07-2008, 01:07 PM

Just spoke with Greg - 19" Cobra's PRE+AU due in 4 weeks
F6 rims wont come in machine face :( - although my mate is a metal polisher and he could sort that out for me..............

**Sorted** · 12-07-2008, 02:08 PM

Ok went and Saw Greg from Wheelmags in Thomastown and got him to put the new F6 Typhoon Rims next to the car to see what they look like........

Only thing I should of also done was have the silver F6 Typhoon rim put against the front wheel as well

Here are some pics

Still undecided - have to wait for the 19" Machine Faced Cobras before I buy

XXRR-50 · 12-07-2008, 07:05 PM

Tuff choice Rosco, they both look good! Which cobras are you waiting for, machined with black inserts?

JAZSXY · 12-07-2008, 07:38 PM

I bought my 19" GTP's off Greg. Top guy. I reckon that the silver faced ones look tops on the car mate.

Waiting to see what the 19" machined cobras look like - (not the black or white insert ones)......

Greg knows you very well Bud, apprently you have very wide rear tyres on your car now as we were talking how wide on the rear i could go

Yeah he is a good bloke, very helpfull, he may of been a bit dismayed I didnt buy wheels today but I want to make the right choice - got to see what all three sets look like

Although I didnt realise the Charcoal ones would look so good

:

I am more swayed to the silver ones but we will see what the 19" Cobra Machined Face look like when they arrive in 4 weeks :( :(
