Just wanted some flavour on the rims

They are Drag Dr21 with Continental DWS All seasons ($1700 for the tire rims+Red lugs and painted calipers) . Forgestar was too much over my budget

The red was just personal preference, can always plastic dip it black.

Might vinyl wrap the roof black sometime in the near future to contrast the rims :s.

What do you guys think

 

 

Not what I would have chose, but if your happy that's what counts!

 

What happened!

As long as you like it, run with it

 

 

yay toronto

I'll give you the even though they're not my cup of tea to make you feel better =)

 

Not really my style.

 

lol maybe ill plastic dip the red black after i get tired of looking at them

 

they look small i would of went bigger =\

 

LOL, I think he was expecting approval................

 

Shoulda got Rotas or used forgestars

 

Seen those exact same wheels on a 2003-2008 toyota corolla 2 days ago. It also had red painted front calipers, slotted rotors on the front, and a exhaust tip on the rear.

Looked very out of place if you asked me.

You need to lower your car and maybe those wheels will look a little better

 

Mhmmm maybe i should go in tmr and get the red lips painted black.

 

Maybe you should put your stock wheels back on.

 

Go get your $$$$ back quick

 

 

If you like them, keep them on.

It is not my cup of tea either, but you shouldn't sway your decision because others don't like it. You should only change your mind when YOU think it looks bad. Different people = different taste.

It can work. Get a drop and plasti dip it black (to see how it looks).

 

not feeling them... these are wheels i'd expect to see on civics or scions, not a TL. imo, it makes the whole car look cheap. whatever makes you happy though.

 

i like them no worries

 

They look like my cr-kai's

 

I looked at those same wheels (flat black, no red trim) but they wouldn't clear the brembo rotors. Did you get them at Discount Tire? Are they 17's or 18's? If they're 17's then you're part of the small group here that has aftermarket 17 wheels. I'm part of that group as well

I actually don't mind them. I think the red looks alright. I would try plastidipping to see what they look like black rather than with the red accent. You could easily pull it off if you don't like it. I've heard Drag wheels are pretty good for the price.

 

$1700?! I'm so sorry man...

 

yikes.

 

 

Yeah $1700 seems like a lot for Drag wheels & tires.

Did the tires cost more that the wheels?

 

Changing your roof black won't be a contrast from your wheels, it'll make them look the same color.

 

 

For that much money you could have done million times better... But if in your eyes they look good then thats all it counts...

I got Avant garde m310 wheels for 229 a piece and that was 18x9.5

 

+1 on that

 

Huh

 

They are drag dr-31s... the 21 are RPF knock-offs.

But yea, it coulda been had for way less. At least you have good tires

 

I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth (Cameron Diaz voice)

 

Below are some thoughts/suggestions, instead of just joining on the dogpile. But most important is your opinion, not everyone else's.

That said:

1. Black rims are tough - remember that black makes things look smaller (think women and their black dresses...). I think they would work better if they were 18's or 19's.
2. More mods could make the whole package look better. Cleared headlights, lowered, etc.
3. Mudflaps - I see a front but not a rear. Either put on the rear or take off the front. If you keep them, consider painting them the silver body color.

Good luck!

 

Was just trying to be unique lol. Theyre acutally not bright red like in the picture, more dark chrome red. So i actually like how they look

Thanks for the suggestion Triax37.
