Default Panther Vector Rims

Would these look nice on a red 2000 AU XR6 II with an XR50 bodykit, I am looking for a dark rim to offset the red body?

Ideas?

Ask someone to photoshop them for you.
In answer to your question, yes they look good and would look good on the car.
Bastard to clean though!

Without the photoshop image its hard to say.

But they are defiantly some sexy looking rims and the black should offset the red nicely without being too contrasting.

Seen these rims on the tempe web site. I'm sure Anthony Mundine has these rims on his Commodore :

I like them. I think they are a nice rim

had a customer with a black BA XR6t come in to work the other day for a BF GT front and bobtail and he had these rims. 20's on the front and 22" on the rear?! cleared his big brembos nicely.....

impressive rim but a bit too busy for my liking

MrsFantz is getting those on her Fiesta in 17's, her car is black though - should look ok - not sure what i think of them on the Au (just going by that photo shop chop there). If you like them though get them !
