Change my wheels???
« on: August 14, 2008 - 04:20:47 PM »
I got this idea from another thread, but I did not want to hi-jack it, so I am starting another one. 

I am starting to like the idea of body color steel wheels on my Challenger.  Does anyone have a red Challenger with these wheels, but also with a black hood (any type) and no stripes?  Or could you just photo shop my car? 

Thanks in advance   :2thumbs:

Nice work Aaron. :2thumbs:

I would personally do them Black Jacksboys. The car is red and the only black is the hood.
It needs more black to "tie" the theme together, IMO, black wheels would do this.

What if you painted the Rally wheels red, and left the center caps and trim rings as they are?   :dunno:  I haven't seen that done before, but maybe there is a reason.   :lol:

Forgot, and the spoiler is black too but looks like you guys got my point.
I think the wheels, even in red, make the car POP and bring it to another level.

Looks mean with the cop rims, here is my rendition with black.
Not sure after seeing it now, I think Red my suit this car better? I like the black, close call.

How about red wheels w/the outer rims and caps black?  Been thinking about doing that with a set of cop car wheels (only Blue)
