Thing is, why do Offord put the car up for sale like that? It's a Ford fitment after all, so surely it wouldn't be too much of a bother putting the car on proper wheels and sell the blingtastic examples off to the MP/gangsta crowd on Ebay? That's two easy sales (and very probably, more cash in your pocket) rather than making life difficult for yourself...

I think those wheels look really good and really make the car look so much better.




















Not.

I've spent hours and hours researching new wheels for my Chimaera and though i haven't got any yet, i have narrowed it down to a couple of wheels which will look good. I've photoshop'd the wheels onto the car so i know what the end result will be.

Can only assume the owner of this car saw a pimped up 4x4 on massive bling wheels and though 'they look good, i'll get some for my Chim'!!!

Really does look awful

I was in Offords when I was looking around for a Chim, to be honest imho they look worse in real life as the arches don't look filled. I guess someone will like them though..............

It is horses for courses I guess, someone must like them..

I fail to see why people change the wheels, I think they are stunning. I don't recall ever having seen a set of non-standard alloys on the Chimaera that I liked.

I think they are awful. Do you think if somebody wanted to buy that car, Offords would put standard wheels back on it for the sale?

Don't see why not - in fact, as per my previous message I'm surprised they didn't do it beforehand...

Damn right - this car used to be local to me. The photos flatten the 3-d effect of the spokes which in real life make them look plain daft - god-damn awful IMHO.

Apparently there is a Cerb in Croydon with 18" spinners. Glad I haven't seen it yet!
