all up to you in end its your car

White alloys can look cool, ESP if you followed it up with some white graphics! Mabye some chequers up the rear qrt

Shilly · 19-04-2012, 11:32 PM

spray the car white too that will make a mark or at least get it wrapped

JayCC · 20-04-2012, 01:57 AM

The standard wheels are the nuts. I'd go with a white wrap, it has been done, but damn it looks good! Cost a little more than a change of wheel colour though!

MikeyRobbo · 20-04-2012, 02:08 AM

I'm with the wrapping of the car, don't paint the wheels white they look shit on an FRS.

cossiestu · 20-04-2012, 10:24 AM

Post up a pic and get it PhotoShopped, at least you'll get a better idea how it will look....

MikeyRobbo · 20-04-2012, 02:31 PM

I actually retract my last comment it doesnt look too bad

Although a dark grey or black is wayyyy better imo.

focusRSgirl · 20-04-2012, 09:09 PM

thanks mikey 4 putting the pics up,

dont want the car white theres already one over here (albeano deano) dont get me wrong it looks sweet hes done a cracking job but want my own stamp, and again darker alloys do look awesome but i want to be different i know its got to be white alloys now and a few other bits

thanks guys

zetec-Sam · 20-04-2012, 09:24 PM

There's a mk1 FRS with orange comps. Looks fucking awesome!

cossiestu · 20-04-2012, 09:35 PM

Looks good with white wheels! Just needs a bit of white on the bodywork to blend it in.....

What like bird shit??

It looks fine just white alloys on it.

The reg plate is white...

massivewangers · 20-04-2012, 10:10 PM

White alloys look awful on a Focus RS. Anthracite of black is 10000x better.

MikeyRobbo · 20-04-2012, 11:07 PM

Had a little play on sumo paint, not perfect but a rough idea to some 'differant' ideas to the common colours

RSargie · 21-04-2012, 07:04 AM

Well out of them colours the white looks better! Although I prefer dark or original

massivewangers · 21-04-2012, 09:26 AM

Bright alloys look even worse

You could always just leave it alone and not worry so much about who's car stands out the most. Does being different really matter?

zetec-Sam · 21-04-2012, 09:47 AM

Shite pic, but personally I think this looks lovely.

It looks ok but it wouldnt without the amber indicators

Albino Deano · 22-04-2012, 08:38 AM

Could always change the wheels i think mine is the only one thats got different wheels on over here in Alcatraz

focusRSgirl · 22-04-2012, 09:33 AM

its not about standing out, its just i want to do something different

its good to finally have a awesome car to play with. and thanks guys for the different colours there pretty ummm bright

love the green and orange, and dean i know we're a pain in the ass

but want to keep the standards, i thought most over here had dark alloys, didnt realise it was just yourself thats good to know, probably see you later down autocross.

STAFFY OWNER · 16-07-2012, 10:29 PM

Think white alloys on an FRS look the biz. Everyone has anthracite or black wheels nowadays, when the wheels are turning they always remind me of when cars had hub caps and when you lost one all you had was a shitty black steel wheel.
