I´ve got a starlight black ITR, run 7,5J16 rims and lowered her 40mm...
But she still looks like a small black car...

The white ITR`s look beefy if you slam them to the ground... They just look better and makes you like whooooaaaaa!

I wonder WHY

 

CW is brighter than black....stand out more i suppose

 

you dont need to slam them to the ground to make them look sweet.

 

Sweet.. yes.. but it still looks....hmm. how do you say ?... slim ?

Anyway...the opposite of beefy.

 

white rims ewwwww

 

It's because they're better.

 

Engineers from Honda, Mugen, & Spoon did a study awile back on this exact subject. They came to the conclusion, that this happens because...

CW 0wnz!

 

hell yeah!!!

but I guess that the official explanation is that white stands out more, curves on black paint car kinda dissapear on it, on white they look bigger.. when I look at black and white Scooby Turbo´s I think that white is wider and bigger..

 

White 0wnz j00!

 

really?

 

CUZ CW OWNZZZZZ!

 

The guys with the white ITRs just have a small pen!s problem so they must buy a bigger "looking" car to make up for it. Everyone knows that real, heterosexually confident men drive a PY ITR

My girlfriend tells me that black is slimming and white tends to make you look bigger. I guess women's fashion could also apply to cars...

 

Here's one of the reasons:

With things that you see, your mind/eye automatically puts an imaginary outline around that object, with black things the outline is already there but on the inside of the silhouette (sp?). Lighter things your eye draws the outline on the outside of the silhouette. It's an art and fashion trick. That's another reason why women like to wear black, it creates a slimmer profile visually.

Yellow, by this definition also should appear *AHEM* larger...

 

i totally agree..its low stance in stock form is fine imo.

 

Yes,
CW`s are gay
PY´s are hetero
and we black R drivers like it with trees or what ?

 

So the the PY has a menicing look compared to Black or White Rs

Yeah Bigger the real life!!!!


if Black is faster then White...
Ahh its true then about PY having 30whp more then Black, so CW is sloooooooow as chit then?

 

daym, CW is so pamp

 

Hmmm,
seriously. No kidding anymore. I`ve hoped to find an answer to my question..
In fact, colour has nothing to do with performance

The truth is, I am thinking of a pair of sideskirts, but I don`t want to be a ricer.

 

It's for these reasons why I'm gonna get a dark color 15" rim. That and because I hate cleaning brake dust.

 

Lloyd~who misses his CW ITR

 

the colour scheme of black and white makes it aggressive and original...to the eye. Here in Australia there are a lot of people who are more into show than go. So chrome rims dominate here as well as turbo's but a race look is quickly catching on!

 

and that is the reason why i got black wheels!

 

Actually if you think about it. That's wrong. Black ITRs heat up faster but at the same time they cool off faster too. The CW ones stay cooler but takes them longer to cool down. The PY are right in the middle. Although neglible...there is still a difference.

 

haha
