Haha I got a TS Wagon .. send me pics if you do it .. what colour is your car? Shiny chrome seems to look good on white second gen sedans .. not sure how it'd go on a wagon.

Hrm that looks nice .. I'm not sure how a basic silver rim would look with white paint though?

White cars I reckon look best with dark shades on the rims like black or shadowchrome.

For years, i've stricly recommended only 17"s for 2nd gens.
But Ollie's side-on photo has got me liking the 18"s. Very nice.

Oh yeh its been lowered. I have some un-lowered pics if you would like to see them. They are perfect size I reckon, I wouldn't go any bigger. But be warned it makes you car look like its sitting a lot higher when you put 18's or even 17's on.

this kind of light blue?

the lighter the colour the better darker rims look in my opinion

Get a good offset when you choose the wheels. If you buy 8inch wide get +30 to +35 if you get 7inch wide get +10 to +15.

Offset makes wheels look better without having to go bigger or wider, jsut fill the guards a lot better.
