Ok im going to paint them but let me just get some opinions on what color....but for rite now i want the same color.

LongIslandMax 04-19-2010 12:26 PM

What color is your car? I would say go with either stock color, or gunmetal.

MIKE323 04-19-2010 04:05 PM

My cars color is gold....Ya that was my second choice gun metal but idk if it would look nice...

Decent wheels, good price, heavy

Screw honda lol.........ok now i dont know what to paint it. I cant decide:mad:

DrunkieTheBear 04-22-2010 10:20 AM

Those are 350z 18s...note the dimples between the spokes. Nothing special though, they are the same weight

MoncefA33 04-22-2010 10:38 AM

Just clean them up and put them on. I don't see the obsession with painted wheels are.

In the 1/4 mile, it most certainly does. Smaller "gearing" (i.e. smaller diameter tires/rims) means quicker acceleration.

MIKE323 04-22-2010 05:37 PM

HotshotVQ35 04-22-2010 05:45 PM

Why can't someone simply get rims that they like? There are many on here who have these rims, it's about one's own preference.

Everyone isn't for the 1/4 mile. Pointing out the wheel weight is one thing, but let the OP decide if the rims are too heavy for him.

I agree :sprint:

MIKE323 04-23-2010 05:39 PM

Ok im sorry to say but now black is one of the opitions.......I saw it on a silver one today and i really liked it

SoonerFan 04-24-2010 01:26 AM

1. where? or we're?
2. people need to pick mods THEY like without starting a thread seaking validation
3. if you do, dont get buttsore when people dont hump your leg like you want and instead say something you feel is negative

MIKE323 04-24-2010 01:49 AM
