I bought a set of Jeep cherokee 17" wheelsoriginally fiitted to a 2002 grand cherokee. they will fit on the SD1 with a little 5mm spacer and new nuts. the question is......... should I fit them and lower a little bit, and tint the windows or fit them and paint it satin black or similar (it needs repainting)orfit them and repaint in original colour orsome thing entirely different heres some more of the car to help

Fit them, slam it, matte black it, tint the windows and the front and rear lights. Murdered out S1 WIN!

I reckon they'd look great. I reckon a new diamond cut/polish will do nicely, then it's just a lowering job away from awesomeness.

Shame as i think they have so much potential, but have never seen an sd1 that is actually done to my taste. ^ That does looks awsome though

[Tyrone just backed into Franky Four Fingers' van] Tyrone: I didn't see it there. Vinny: It's a four ton truck, Tyrone. Its not as if it's a bag of f**king peanuts, is it? Tyrone: It was a funny angle. [All three turn and look back at the truck] Vinny: It's behind you Tyrone. Whenever you reverse, things come from behind you.
Sorry had to be done ;D

Moonraker blue is an ace colour, keep it that, ( i have a whole load of moonraker blue paint that i never used to repaint my vitesse if you're interested)
The jeep wheels look cool I'd go for it, maybe a smidge lower but not on the deck and it'll look bootifull..

The Internet, like all tools, if used improperly, can make a complete bo**cks of even the simplest jobs...

The wheels look OK, just not on an SD1. And painting it matt black? Don't follow the sheep, you're better than the herd, and there's lots of colours in the paint catalogue (but the current colour does look good if you had it resprayed in that. My tuppance worth? Lower it and get some decent 16" or 17" split rim cross spoke wheels (like compomotive CX or similar) or something similar to this: Or this: Or this (but with wheel nuts): which were on this: Maybe even wheels similar to this: SD1s so suit the circuit racer look.

Ewwww those alloys on the the red and white No. 45 look like Allegro Equipe alloys. I Nearly barfed!
As for the Jeep alloys. Stunning choice. Just lowered, looks good as it is body wise but matt blacking it would make it look capable of killing kittens.
