Default Car Alloys Q
Would my car suit these alloys?





Theyre 17" Kei Force 10's hyperblack, don't know whether to get them or not, hmmm.

I don't see why not. Don't know for sure though. Good looking wheels though!

Wheel style - sorta, they maybe have too many spokes for a curvy car.

Colour - no, I dont think black/dark grey wheels would suit that colour green.

I wish I could see them/photoshop them on but I suck too much to be able to do it, they are amazing wheels.

How much did you pay for the car btw? I wouldn't mind a Focus but most of em seem to have high milage.

You've got to be careful with Fords IMO. If you have low mileage when put against alot of luxuries and a bigger engine, then there's always the possibility the mileage is clocked. There's without a doubt alot of dodgy cars from Ford out there when compared to other brands.

Shame really since Fords are generally very good.

Bought it in Jan/Feb from Arnold Clark, 32k miles when I bought it, was only £3900.

1.8 zetec, climate pack etc (although arnold clark are cowboys and the air con is broken as I found out during the summer, had this checked by a specialist and would cost about £100 to fix but still...)

Very very clean car, interiour is like no one has ever used it, if your careful you can find good ones.

I agree maybe not the colour, what about the silver versions?



or would Ford ST170 alloys look better?

Here is a distinctly bad photoshop



I generally prefer dark alloys purely by the fact that they are quite rare...

lol, bear in mind the alloys would be bigger, the ones on it are 14" or something, these ones would be 17" then the tires round them. Plus I might lower the car a tiny tiny bit.

I think the black and green look good together? also Ive changed the indicators to clear ones, there's no orange on the car anymore.

hehe lol, I know

I probably shouldn't but I feel it deserves to look better, I came across this pic:



It's a standard Focus like mine, blue obviously but exactly the same otherwise, but it has 18" BSA's on it and lowered slightly.

Looks awesome I think, I may go with these.

Cheers for the Photoshop JPR mate, anychance you could stick the BSA's on it? lol, or turn the other car green

That is nicely done. I really do not prefer the darker alloy rims. Silver looks much nicer with this color vehicle and these rims don't look as ricey. Just nice low profile rims that draw your eye, but don't keep your eye on the rims, so you can see the rest of the vehicle too. I like rims that don't yell "look at me lolz"

You think they will look good with the green colour of my car?

I think so. I also like the stylistic contrast that the silver rims have. The focus is very curvy, but the rims are very straight lined, which like I said before, draws your eye because they are different, but they aren't overpowering the rest of the look of the car. [yes]

Not that good coloring and not exactly the same green as your car but you'll get the idea:

What a load of crap, why are Ford's more prone to be 'clocked back' than other cars? Knocking mileage off cars is rarely done these days.
