Hm...ok, ill forget the bodykit for now lmao.gif

what colour rims should i get? For those who havent seen my garage its a white RD1.

I found these rims for sale:



They are 1100$AUD with 4 brand new tyres, wheel nuts, fitting and balance.

Then we have these:




For these ones i would end up paying about 1700$AUD.



Again 1100$AUD with everything.


Im not sure what colour i should get, i dont think chrome would look good on white car..maybe gold rims like the ones in the picture..

rims fulfill a two part enhancement for you car. They are both an aesthetic statement AND a performance enhancer. The best of both worlds really
