I wouldn't quite say that, black stockies can look mean on the right car, I've been tossing up throwing them on the mont, but at this stage I've still got rubber on the factory alloys, so they'll stay until there worn out or rooted, 1 down due to f**k knows what it was.
but yeah it a hard decision go the somewhat meaner look, but then I think I'd need something to back it up under the hood, which I can't see happening to soon.
May leave alloys on it and go stockies on the pottential project i'm tossing around at the moment.

stockies look tough
also it doesnt matter if you ACCIDENTLY spin the wheels cos they cost next to nothing

but imo they only look good on dumped cars

stockies are only good if you want to do burnouts everywhere!

to me stockies make the car look like someone either stole your wheels, your a hoon and want to do burnouts or canot afford decent rims lol
