Volvo_go_go Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 So it may be pushing a 'ricer' look possibley but, im thinking chrome. Already got the leg up.. have chrome lisence plate surrounders! But im thinking chrome, black and blue.... When i put these up here dont bid against me!!!!As much as i likeother rims, i really like the fact that they are Volvo... i like showing off the badge on my grill, and my wheels, this is right up my ally and price range! (even though i need to get tires, but. eh ill come to that later!(whole ebay auctionHERE)Also the badgeless grill... then though i like my badge, little chrome accents on itgrillI have till tuesday to place my bids and what not, what do you think? im going to hold on from the tinting and let this be my big buy untill my next paycheck in 2 weeks!(i have a 95' 850 GLT blue/green by the way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the underlørd Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 oh i don't think anyone will bid against you.. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil E Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Personally, I would not put them on my car, but if you like em', it's cool. I don't think they shout out "rice" either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volvo_go_go Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 think you will be able to tell much of a difference from stock?... i know they are chrome, they shine... but. think it will stand out enough? that is the only thing i am worried about!

Ivanfbi Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 why did you go with volvo? they are not for bling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachRat Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 oh i don't think anyone will bid against you.. You didn't even bother deleting the auction link...I personally think Volvos and chrome go together like fat people during sex: it just doesn't happen. But I'm a strong backer of the "It's your car, your opninion matters most" policy. You will definitely bling up, and a lighter shade of blue (like the V70 lazerblue) would be a better option for chromification than other swedish shades.

matt1122 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 So wait, don't you have a 93 GT with 0 bling factor?You realize adding rims to that is like uhh... let's think here...Throwing rusted steelies on a bentley.If you want to look like a gangsta who couldn't sell an eight of an ounce of crack if a crack whore in front of them was waving a $100,000 around and offering a blow job and screaming "I need some crack!", go for it.

BoxLover Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 It'll look trashy. Volvos are classy sexy not trashy.Like Katherine Zeta Jones to Britney Spears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UberV70 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Please tell me that those are at least 18's. Chrome can look very good - you just have to do it properly (mandatory picture of own car).People WILL stuff on your head for wanting to put chrome on your car, but like i always say - screw em' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmelviØØ7 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Volvo + Chrome = grossBut there is always an excpetion to the rule, like the Titanium Grey S60R with 18" chrome pegs. Too bad that is the only time chrome on a Volvo will ever be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NGB Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 They are 17's and i think they MIGHT look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volvo Virgin Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Go go,I was actually toying with the idea of blinging out my S70 with some chrome Titans that were for sale.No decisions yet,but I am tossing it around.I'm a chrome fan myself,and tho I know I have taste,I never claimed it to be good taste. I am also a big fan of "it's your ride so do what makes you happy".If you like it...do it!Just don't expect much support on VS when it comes to chrome.There's kinda an anti-chrome club that dominates the scene here.Where are you in Jersey by the way??
