Well the XSi is currently looking like this;
Sitting at 40mm at the front, waiting for the back to be set to suit and have spacers 20mm on rears and 10mm on fronts.
Now I was just wondering what everyone thinks to the following;
- 16x7" Cade Eros (Cherry Red Face with Polished Dish or All Black 'Stealth Edition) with 195/45 tyres for stretch and spaced to suit.
- Coilovers fitted and suspension setup to suit.
All opinions welcome.
If someone could do a photoshop to give me an idea that would be great aswell.
Thanks

EDIT,
rear tints aswell a medium smoke imo

Nope morettes are staying as they're Gloss Black as are the mirrors, bonnet vents, spoiler and sidestrips. I'll also be replacing the quiksilver decal on door pillar for a gloss black versions.
Wheels will be coming off for a full re-powdercoat and being stored away.
The wheels I've chosen are below & in the following colour ways;
I'm think more second or third over the custom red faces. I want the red to stay subtle.

I just painted the tow hook in Peugeot Cherry Red.
But yeh I'm stuck between either the 2nd or 3rd. Both are the same price and both are available in 16x7 fitment.
I've got some pinstriping going down the contours of the sides going on over the weekend in Red.
