The top rims in question look alright in bigger sizes ie 20's - but for that size i'd get stock internationals

The copies look good but definitely prefer original Internationals. Here's a shot of a Calais from Carsales to give you some indication.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

broo, are you sure those rims would suit the original posted thread; black rims on a green vl?

They aren't black, they're grey and pretty much the same grey as your bumpers, so they would tie nicely IMO

i like the colour but it is definately an odd one. as for the rims mentioned so far they aren't my taste. i like the inters and the extra " is cool but it kinda makes them look like those stomp shop / photoshop pics with 20" interceptors. i like momo status or some vy/z ss 18"s

I�m personally not a fan of the 18inch international imitations. Just look cheap and tacky like other fake crap If you�re on a tight budget maybe you could try genuine 17inch internationals or 18inch WH Grange rims, If money is no issue than I reckon genuine VX GTS rims will look perfect with your colour combo Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Thats why ROH started making fake sigs (the same mould as the real sigs just a different color) after HSV took their business elsewhere. If you look on the back of any VE HSV wheel you will notice no one ROH symbol on them. I cant remember the name of the company that make wheels for HSV now though. Also, as far as the rims go i reckon they look cheap. Either get genuine nationals, or get the gto's, they will look awesome on your color.
