Here are my ROH 'Adrenalin' 16 x 6.5 shadow chrome wheels. I think the shadow chrome looks better with the Cerrion Silver paintwork than the regular silver wheels.

The car is slower as it is also oversized. Bigger wheels, slower acceleration but higher top speed - smaller wheels, quicker acceleration but lower top speed.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
