Help me find new rims
Sunday, December 25, 2005 1:57 PM
ALright. After 5 years on the same set of rims I think its time for an upgrade.
Now I honestly freakin love my rims. But I want bigger. 18 or 19. WHatever comes along as a better deal.

Also. Do you think a black rim with polished lip would look alright on my car? Or whatever that greyish collor is? I do have a CF hood and may get a CF trunk in the future so I figured the dark rims wouldnt be bad idea.




SOme pics to help you out. Maybe get a feel for the car.




I am all that is man

I think something like these would look nice on your car. And yes I know the picture is of a 4 bolt wheel, but they do come in a 5x100 pattern with a 42 offset. They're Centerline Excel's

I say keep those, or if you must get rid of them, I guess I would be able to take them off of your hands. However they look great on your car. Keep up the good work!

what about a rim that has polished spokes and a black lip? I've always been a fan of those style rims on bagged cars.

I wouldn't go with black eventhough u do have a carbon fiber hood. I don't know how black would look on a dark green car... a nice gunmetal or hyperblack rim would look great though--imo. I don't know what style you're going for but some of my favorite style rims have always been hyperblack 5Zigen Hyper 5ZRs:


and gunmetal Tenzo RS5s:

^^^ I Like that RS5. I agrre on the black thing. I wouldnt do that. I like the gunmetal and hyperblack.

Im real torn on this. I really love my rims. I love how they look in that second pic I posted. But I want something bigger. But IM keeping them for sure. THey will jump onto my S10 if I do get new rims for the car.

the black lip thing is cool, but it makes the wheels look smaller imo,

with the carbon i say hyper black and a polished lip, if there wasnt carbon id go all polished...

Our cars are the same color and these are the wheels i should be getting for mine in about a month, they should have a similar style wheel over there in North America!

Hope you like

When I saw your rims for the first time i feel in love with them. I'm glad your keeping them otherwise i'd have to take them off your hand's.

Yeah Im thinking that I will keep what I have on my car.

Everyone I talk to about it in person says I'd be crazzy to take them off.

I need to save my money anyway for a house down payment.
