Thinking about white walling

Post by LaidNeon » Mon Sep 29, 2008 10:12 pm

I'm not usually one to ask for opinions mainly because i'm a big boy & i wipe my own ass. but here lately i have really been thinking about scrapping my 17s for some stock 15" steelies & then having the tires white walled with a bad ass set of hubcaps like this

Image




Just to comply with posting rules, here's the reason i have been thinking about going with white walls

it just depends on the size of wheels. cuz big wheels with it slamed looks oh so good. but if you but 15's and slam it persoally i dont think it will look to good. white walls are a good idea but its just all about the wheels.

I think I'd need to see a more realistic chop of your actual car with smoothies on it to decide. Though the chop is badass.

Sounds awesome.. idk about 15s thoughh, sounds too small. Id think it would look better with maybe a 16" wheel. Although they do look awesome on that Mazda. You're really a mini trucker at heart aren't you?? haha. Those Halibrand looking wheels would look great too. I love your car though. It never ceases to impress me.

btw, am I :tardbang: or is that bumper in the chop very reminiscent of a 1st gen Avenger bumper??

....yeah.. that's what I thought. Why I typed Mazda, I have no idea... :tardbang: haha, yeah, I've been into the custom truck scene since before I even knew anything about them. Then once I got my hands on my first Truckin'.... it was all over. I still subscribe to that magazine to this day. :D
