New 20" Rims

Re: New 20" Rims

Nice wheels!

But is there anything that can be done to "dress up" behind the wheel? Because the rim is so open, I find myself focusing on what's behind...like the rotors, calipers and all that greyish, brownish area.

Re: New 20" Rims

We already thought of that before we ordered the rims, but we can only spend so much money in a couple of months. So far it has been about $10K CND. the brakes and turbos are next on the list. I thought about painting the calipers red, in fact I already have the paint in the garage but I think that it will highlight how small the brakes are even more. Did anybody notice the custom tweeter pods i had made in the factory locations? I will be posting more pictures of everything ASAP alot of the pictures did not turn out.

<hr></blockquote> I made the same mistake when I took pics of my car. The flash should be turned off when you take pics that close. It just makes the rim stand out, makes the tire look small, makes the wheel gap look huge, highlights all the suspension behind the wheel, etc....
Regardless, I love those wheels and the car! Good job!!!
