Right after last nights cruise & after seeing my mates saxo proper low on 15's i now want rid of the 17's ive got. As it makes the car look proper high even tho i thought it was low(ish) How low can you go on speedlines as my cars lowered -60mm rear and -40mm front but i will be changin the front soon...And as a silly question would they suit the styling of my car..?I was thinking White or the Normal silver..Could some1 please photo shop my car slamed on speedlines white & silver just to see what it would look like...Thanks




Would any of these pictures do...

Thanks very much appreacited

I think the size of the wheels you have now is spot on, get some different 17s.

I think Speedlines will look a bit small on a car modified like yours

i dont think you should get speedlines, i reckon because you've got a pretty custom looking car you should have a look around and get some more original rims.

cars looking great by the way shame you cant take any good pics

When I say modded I mean bodykitted

Like everyone's saying, it's unique now, add speedlines and it becomes sheepish
