Anyone got some good suggestions for my wheel upgrade ? Definitely looking at 18's but not sure what to go for. tried trawlling through the post my ride pages but not sure what half of them are. Was thinking of something like ROH Drift R's, like the sunken look not sure how they'd suit a Diamante though

dont get the drift r's
just the symbol is enough to turn me off (imo GT-R badge :rant: )
def go the dish look though!
Depends on the colour of the car..

its black
its black
Lowered? 4wd height? Tinted windows.. Come on man.. youre asking us opinions on what wheel you should get..
Gotta know the look of a car before recommending something.
Anyhow.. I think these would look ok. They come in Silver, Chrom and Hyperblack (hyperblack is the pic)

Hey, how does the car go? Ever put it on a dyno or gone to the drags? I know a guy who pulled a flat 15 with 147kW at the wheels.

Good one. How about educating yourself before posting.
It's a 3.0l so it's torque at low rpm isn't the greatest - just ask Meansolara who swapped his 3.5 for this engine.
It's an automatic to it's sluggish.
It's in a car which is as heavy, if not heavier than our Verada of the same year.
How many 3.0l auto's on here have a flat 15 quarter? It's trap speed I believe was high enough to give a mid to high 14 if it were a manual.

Steady on there lads, bit off topic. Not really interested in 1/4 miles etc otherwise I would have bought an EVO, yes its 3.0 litre DOHC 24v with 5speed tiptronic. Am considering a manual conversion at some point as I have heard that these tipy's dont have much of a shelf life, otherwise very happy
I guess no one is overly interested in wheel suggestions then ?
