My new 22" Kahn black wheels

BL02WAS · Post by **BL02WAS** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 8:28 am

Well I changed the front grills to all Mary black versions, have blacked out windows and thought well I may aswell go for the stealth look (I know it is not to some peoples taste but each to their own) and if we were all the same then it wod be boring. So purchased these 22" Kahn alloys in powder coat black: take a look :

That's good, think you might be pleasantly surprised when you see them. Give me a shout if you are working over this side and I will pop over with them. I'm back on my 10 days off now so let me know

love the grille and lights, i think the wheels would have looked better silver, some wheeks suit black but i think wide spokes like on the kahns look better lighter, what profile are you running cos im have 22" but tyres dont look that thin, ive got 35 front and 30 rear. ayat

Not my cup o tea in shiney black... maybe matt black though...

Also, maybe think about getting some mud flaps - makes the car look lower and helps the 22's fit in the arch aesthetically...

The width is the important missing number there... 35 and 30 are a percentage of the width which = profile

They do look very low though and probably doesn't help the look in the Arch?

265/35 front and 295/30 rear. didnt know it was percentage of width. so rear isnt lower profile compared to front

Hi all thanks for the down putting comments!! Lmfao! Ha, well I like them and that's main thing, lol. They are 265/35/22 all way round, I'm happy with way they sit, think it must just b the angle of that picture. Don't look bad when you see them. X555 just seen them in flesh!!!

Yeah just seen them and they were a pile of s@:t

Joking aside they do look better than the pics there maahuusive up close and of course have that little 'different' edge to standard ones.Too dark/black for me though mate

PS looks to much like a drug dealers car aswell

2nd picture looks better but still not a fan of the glossy black or the skinny tyres - like the Kahn wheels though.

You need to get mud-flaps, larger profile (maybe slightly wider) tyres, powder coat your side steps and maybe smoke your back lenses to pull off the stealth look...
