Function Or Bling??

[SLY33]

With all the recent hype of massive chromies and dumped suspension, im just curious to know what look is favoured at the moment.

We have my previous Bling setup of 19s and uncomfortably low suspension (as in signature pic), and my current very drivable setup of 17's and sensible suspension.

Which gets the vote!?

[silver gts-t]

buddy's definately get my vote, the orange and bronze looks great

[justin911]

ya the ones in the top pics look heaps better

[Nozila]

track look right there

I much prefer the bling look, but the buddy's still look very nice..

My car had work rims on it red lip, black inner... looked track but didn't appeal to me.. so i changed to 18's and dropped it 3.75" and i think it looks way better.

looks good both ways, although i'd take it in the top pics because i'm not a fan of those particular 19's...

but all depends on what you're going for...if you want just pure looks, and dont mind a bumpy ride, or if you want it to be functional and smoother...

Those 17's look great. Vote 1 for buddyclub

bronze and the orange look great..

those chromies looked a bit too stupid, and way to low at the rear. Usually i laugh at cars like that, just as they obviously are going for a certain look, which must have to make the car more difficult to drive everywhere.

the chromies look ok because they fill the guards more.... if the track rims were one inch bigger it would be awesome... otherwise the track look is more suitable to the car and means its actually being used as a peformance car not a cruiser

[paulr33]

the first pic but add a c west wing or one of the crazy apexi electornic adjustable wings

[JH32]

I like them both but I think the chromies look better with the flashy paint

[Dahtone Racing]

chrome rims suit the paint more

and IMO 17s are way to small on your car

[mr_rbman]

17's all the way, i'm doin the same as u and going to a more sensible not so showy rim!

[LO_R33]

Yeah thats what i meant, i didn't like those style rims with the paint.. and as my car isn't very quick anyway the bling rims suit it better...

If you take it on the track 17's, if you don't then 18's.

But I think the chromies are too loud with the paint scheme.. Imo 18 black or bronze on the street *droolies*

so the buddys/track look is more popular so far which is good to know.. On the GTSt's 19s are too big for decent handling IMO. apart from adding to the unsprung weight, the rolling diameter is significantly taller than the stock 16's, for which the suspension geometry was designed to work with! not trying to start a suspension thread tho
