Nice! Spoiler's a nice touch too. Black in winter with snow and salt makes me cry though... Our other car is a black one, so I know what it's like.
Are those wheels 17's or 16's BTW?
16" wheels.
Hmmm... I thought 16's would really look small on the car, but on yours they look good. Maybe I'll consider them for winters. Ours are 18's normally, and I was going to get 17's for the winter, since out here in the Pac. Northwest, we don't get much snow in the winter (maybe 10 to 14 days a winter), but we do go up to the mountains once or twice a month.
I figured why get 17"s or 18"s if im just gonna get a new set of wheels Volvo has some nices sets.
I always felt it best to go with the smallest possible wheel size for winters so you can run thinner tires, 215's vs 225 or 235 width tires. Thinner tires are better in snow, on my Subarus I ran 15" snows at 195 width.
Nice car... you have great taste.
here is mine, quite similar: :D
Yes, I know that narrower tires are better for snow, but I was thinking whether there'd be a huge difference between 215 tires vs. 235's. Doesn't seem like much to make a big enough difference?Quote:
