Just thought they were interesting. Probably won't get them. Most likely getting my wheels powdercoated bronze.

Can someone do a photochop on a black max though just so I can see how they'd look?

Can you post a bigger pic of your car and a picture of the rims without the water mark, or just the name of the rims so I can find a different picture. I'll do it if you can do that, maybe not by tonight though.

saw those on ebay...might look okay on a black or red car i suppose. they're a little heavy for my taste tho; ebay auction listed 17's as like 21lbs.

Time attack style = played. Real TAs would be pretty sweet though.

Here is number 2. It's the Tenzos, I'm not pleased at all with this photoshop job, mostly because I did it quickly and plus I couldn't find a straight on shot of the rims so they are at an angle on the car, but luckily its kinda low rez and dark so it's harder to notice. Either way I hope this kinda clears up your curiosity. I say stay with the G rims as everyone has said.



Edit: now that I see it out of photoshop it looks even crappier, I'm really upset with that chop. Oh well, I hope it serves its purpose for you Lumberg.

I hear ya. I can bronze the G rims if you want in P/S right now, your file is still open and what not.

What kinda bronze do you want? Can you find a swatch or something online and I can give it a try for you.

Yeah I will, can you just tell me the real name of the rims or something so I can find a straight forward pic w/o a watermark on it.

Also if you get me other pics of your car I might be able to find one that I can lower or do other fun stuff besides just rims.

EDIT: They are called NEXO PX-5 I just can't find a good picture and would rather not deal with the hassle of removing the watermark and whatnot, so if you can find a better picture thatd be amazing!

Here's a general idea of what I can do for you real quick. I played around with this last week. Lowered it, rims, tint, and something else I think, I can't remember. I also have stuff to still work on, this was just a quick chop done out of boredom. I'm missing the passenger side windows and I messed up the front rim of the Work Emotions.
Before:

With different color SE Rims, I was going for the SE-L look:

Work Emotion Rims:



Hahaha thanks Tom, if you want something done to that brand spankin new 5.5 tell me. I'll do it for you for some coilovers haha.

Done with the Bronze, I actually like it, I was skeptical at first. I think it might be a little too yellowy compared to the pic you gave me, especially up front, but it's much closer in the back. Enjoy!



That's it for me for tonight.

I remember awhile back wanting some baller sportmax's and some really cool guys on the org were puffing their chests out and telling me how un-baller it was to want sportmax wheels. Now look at how popular they are...every car event I go to there are cars with sport max's..usually drifting cars.

after 2 blue screens of death, I achieved this. Not great, but it gives you some idea:



Two things: these rims are going to show off your discs and calipers tremendously, and they would look way better if you got them in a bigger diameter.

thank you

and what do you mean get them in a bigger diameter? you talking about the rims?
wouldnt that show off the discs/calipers more? or will the lug area be bigger and hide it more?

I thought he just wanted that color and style. I didn't take the 18" into account.
