Rims.....


Ok, so eventually (once I get some money saved up again) I'm going to do stripes and rims. Problem is, I like white stripes and black rims, but I feel that that combo doesn't mesh well. Also, I would do black stripes and black rims but i dont think black stripes look that good on a red torch stang. So voice your opinions on the matter and help me out.

Go for the White LeMans stripes and polished alloy or chrome rims.
With the white stripes it looks quite similar to a 500.

You think chrome is better than black?

I think the chrome rims and the black stripes are great together, but if you go with the black rims forget the stripes.

I'm not a big fan of stripes, but the black stripes on your torch red with the chrome wheels sounds good. I really like the black rims with chrome lip and the no stripe scenario best.

My car is the same color as yours and I'm going to have my hood painted like the steeda cars. I like stripes but alot of stangs have them now and I just want to be different. You could also have you wing ends painted black. I was glad to see that wing on your car I was wondering what it looked like on a red car. Get you a front splitter and you would look like a road racer.

black rims alone would look good, but if you really want white stripes then maybe consider chrome wheels.

If you go with black wheels, the no stripes, but with stripes, go with chrome.
