burgy_51_ Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Thinking of changing a few things on my car soon and first up was my wheels, i like the rb wheels that are on and was thinking of getting them done white , is that a good thing or im i as well selling them and get a white set for my car??
sczscoob Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 If it's an RB320 you have, DON'T TOUCH IT!!! I like the way Limited Editions come out of the Showroom, but each to there own.
Gumball Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 I think its a white STI you have and have found RB wheels for it? I would paint them white and take the centre caps out and replace them with something new. Or if it an RB320, please...........no

Remember RB wheels are hard to get so are worth a bit might be better to sell them and get a set of white wheels. If you need a loan of wheels I have a spare set of gold 17" with good tyres if you need.

It all depends on how much i will got for the wheels i think the tyers on them are not the best and i have a couple of curb marks on the front two, my mate said he will do them for £50 a wheel so its gonna cost £200 to get them white, if i get a good price on them then i would mibby get a different set, how much do the rb wheels go for anybody know?

badbaz Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 I wouldn't change them or the colour. Think your motor looks the dogs bollox. If you are intent on white, ffs make sure they are the right shade!!!

See the colour of the RB wheels , is it a oneoff colour or can i just get the front two fixed so they are back to a good standard?
paul555sti Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Keep them as they are mate! White wheels are a complete pain in the ar$e to keep clean, unless you like washing them every other day!

White wheels are a complete pain in the ar$e to keep clean, unless you like washing them every other day! and I love my white wheels (had them on three scoobs now and 3 "other" cars) but they are a total pain in the bahooky to keep clean. Anyhoo, love the RB wheels as they are on your car so leave as is IMHO PS get the two kerbed wheels painted as close as to the original colour as you can and then put them on the same side of the car and nobody would be any of the wiser Edited November 17, 2010 by Gus the Bus
sparky_sj04 Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Quote how much do the rb wheels go for anybody know? Used to be around £250 per wheel.
scooby222 Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 i know from my 306 rallye days that white wheels on white cars can often make the car look grubby id stick with the rb wheels, theyre top quality and i think the black on white look works really well on your car mate
burgy_51_ Posted November 18, 2010 Author Posted November 18, 2010 Cheers for the advice guys, I think I will get them fixed up and take it from there, that's probably how I want to change them because of the daft curb marks on them, if I get them back to normal I will probably change my mind about the colour White. Cheers
