just an opinion, if I were you I wouldnt change the color of wheels.. Dark colors need to keep clean always and a hard job in rainy environments..

Quickly done I know, but see what you think.

Don't forget to save the pics onto your own PC to so you have them to view off line when you want.

Hope it helps ?. :y

In the photos the front of your car looks lower than the back anyhow.  If you really want to know how it would look with an equal drop, then I could do it if I were to spend a bit more time on them.

But for now >>>>

Going off line soon chap, so I'll post the silver wheel dropped look tomorow.

I've PM'd you to ask which version you want of the dropped look.

No prob's with the time, if I didn't have the time, or wanted to help, wouldn't of bothered to.

Give you something to think about.

Had a thought, how about set of silver wheels, only using those like the pre-facelift MV6 style.

If you take a look in the gallery section, there's a lass called sara whose got a set on an Estate.

Didn't like them myself at first, but the more I keep looking at the picture, the more I think they're growing on me.

Well been hard at work !!.

This is equal end drop on standard wheels.

(http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/af113/om3g22tf/OmegaBlackEst-equaldrop.jpg)

This is the same, but with the standard wheels if they were about 18" size

(http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/af113/om3g22tf/OmegaBlackEst-equaldrop2.jpg)

And this is the same drop with 18" wheels, but I've had a play around myself with your pic !!!!!!

(http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/af113/om3g22tf/OmegaBlackEst-equaldrop3.jpg)

Though as you can see, just a sample of what you can do if you play around with the pic's.
I'm no professional obviously, and I'm sure they would do better, but least it give you an idea ?!.

 :y

PS. don't forget to save the pic's for your own personal note, as after about couple of days, I'll remove them off my host side to make room for my next photo project  ;D  ;D

ok thanks mate  :y

the first pic looks about right, silver with the back lowered to sit level with the front  8-)
the second one is awesome but after just fitting my new tyres, these will be staying a while  ::)
not sure about the 3rd  :-/

The last one was just to show what you can do before you actually go through with the plan to do it.

I've used the software on both my vehicles to try out ideas, before I've gone ahead and actually done the work, and it's saved me money and time wasting once I've looked at pics for a while.
Then least I know when I'm going ahead with the plan it'll look how I thought.

Glad I could help out.
