Right then, here's a question.

What colour should I paint them? I'm torn between black or white. But I'm also tempted to go drift style and paint the front wheels bright orange and the back ones lime green as I want a mad DTM style stripped out racer!

What would ya'll do?

[Edit] Or even, just painting the lips wild and leaving the spokes white or vice versa.

Well, I got them fitted! They needed all 4 tyres replacing! :shock: At least it was a good excuse for fitting Brand New Toyo Proxes T1R's! Nice.

Anyway, have some piccies!

Yes, they need cleaning up, but they look better than what came off!

Cant wait to start photochopping and lowering and stripping and racing (on tracks ;) ) it!

I plan too. As soon as I get my stuff from ebay the Mazda's going to the workshop to be fixed. I'm all insured on it and ready to go! The sooner the better I reckon!

Well whilst I was at work I started photochopping my car! Here's an early one with not much done to it. (Smoothing, de-locking, tinting) As I go on i'll add more of them as I decide on a visual theme for it! lol, enjoy.
