S60 03' Best 16" rims and best spoiler

Post by Walru5 »

I have a 2003 Volvo S60 that now is a running project car so I want to move on to looks. I was thinking rims (Only because when the tires were replaced the factory ones were torn up.) I was also thinking a spoiler just for looks I guess and maybe some better fuel economy?

Car: 2003 Volvo S60
Color: Gray

If you want to know anything else about what the car looks like just let me know. It's basically just the factory gray and can get painted if it'll look nicer. Also I am going to get professional window tinting done in black.

The point of this post is to hopefully get some ideas on what type of spoiler to get and what rims? I only have interior/engine experience nothing about the outside of the car but want it to look good.

My thoughts on wheels... black or white have been played out. They've been on everything, stock, aftermarket, you name it. Back to classic gunmetal or silver IMHO. Here's what I like:

I will it probably won’t be for a while because I want to get new tires with them instead of risking a mech scratching them like the originals on the car now.
