i prefer the BRM's... a much more classic and understated style.
but if you are wanting a stand-out, then go for the chromes.
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

The car doesn't really suit the big chromies, but I guess it might look different in person?

you could make the chromies work, but it would take a lot of engineering. Like for instance, narrowed front and rear ends. And it would also have to
be very very low to look any good. that probably means tubs and similar other mods. Ie. lots of hard work for wheels that will be out of fashion in 12
months time. I'm not saying don't do it, coz it would look the bomb, but it seems like a lot of effort.
Just my opinion...besides, the BRMs look tops.

wheels can make or break a car . do you go with the flow or be a individual , it all depends on the car , colour, stance , window tint , access , etc
, etc , etc . but in the end its your decision what you like might not be someone elses cup of tea . you got old school and the other end of the
spectrom , i do the same thing get my mates decisions then decide from there . never , never ever ask the misses a answer like umm ohh yeah i supose
will kill any idea you had .

Although I am a fan of chrome wheels and the bigger the better I would have to say that the BRM's look hot and they suit your notch far better

not a fan of chrome rims.
maybe if you want big rims on there, run some 17" Porsche rims Or some Audi TT rims?
Most people seem normal, till you get to know them.

Putting big chromies on that car is like a ripper boob job on a granny. No offence to the car or grannys.
Some-one shut that siren up!
