I think it's a great idea to have fastish MPV's, a lot of people don't have much choice and really need something big 
So if I was in tha possition I'd certainly buy one. They look pretty good in the flesh

Me too until the other day mate. I was quite happy to keep them silver, but my car was sat next to a blue vxr with black wheels and the black ones looked so much better in the flesh and they looked much biggerH2DaE said:I really can't believe they are making a Meriva VXR
And Koa I think those wheels look pretty good, but I personally would have kept them silver
I think it's because on the silver wheels, your eyes are drawn to the centre silver area but on black you actually see the whole wheel with the tyres as one thing if you get me ?
I'll also be getting a big brake conversion done sometime so the black will just make them stand out more
IMO black wheels work really well on tough looking cars, my mate's just ordered a set of kei kruze (
) for his black IS200 and they look
they definately work well on red cars though, gives you that kinda touring car feel

The Touring car look is what I was aiming for, without going to the extremes of wide arches etc, I have some decals so I'm getting there
those black wheels look awesome, i luv'd the ones on the pictures on thorneys car go for a gloss finish and they'll be nice and shiney

Thorneys are 18's so I don't want those as it will be a waste of good tyres, but the look is spot on. I'll get some pics up as soon as they are done1.8Stilo said:those black wheels look awesome, i luv'd the ones on the pictures on thorneys car
every inch counts lol!
Pitty you cant have the front windows tinted anymore as a nice medium/light tint allround with your black wheels would finish it off a treat and make it look pretty much hard as nails!

you can still get a light tint cant oyu?if i get mine on the road i fancied just a light tint all round

I thing the vxr comes tinted to the legal limits on the fronts anyway, the windows are a lot darker than the Stilos were so I doubt it'll be worth the hassle. I will look into it sometime just out of curiosity though, the back windows are really dark, I have some pics somewhere that highlight this, I'll see if I can find em.
