Gloss Black or Hyper BLack?
Hyper- http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.ph...inum=1&large=1

Gloss- http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.ph...inum=1&large=1

for my black 99. Im leaning towards gloss, but the hyper looks nice too. Opinions?

BTW this site offers free shipping and free springs, not a bad deal at all.

They both look pimp, but Hyper looks even better.

Free springs too, eh? Hmmmmm

Gloss Black for sure, Hyper is a little too much like chrome...unless you are in to the bling bling.

I vote for the hyper black

But why only a 7" wide rim?

I'm going with 18's for sure. I haven't called them on the springs yet, I like the look of S Techs, gotta see what they have to offer first.

You think 7" is too narrow? I mean on this car is there any real advantage to a wider wheel other than looks or a little bit more of a contact patch?

i'd go with the hyper black. 7" is fine, just make sure the offset is decent and get some nicer tires.

A lot of 4th gens run 8" rims. The reasons are the ones you stated.....better looks and more contact. A 7" would certainly work, though. As mentioned the biggest thing is the offset, if you want to get the tires flush with the fenders.

I looked into it, and they offer Maxspeed springs with the free spring offer. What is the ideal offset to get em flush?

I've got Maxspeeds and like them a lot.

As for the offset, I'm not sure for 7" rims on a 4th gen.

Yea I think im gonna go with gloss, it was my choice from the start, but I saw the hyper and had to entertain the thought. I'll most likely use the springs on the stock struts, just hope they dont blow too fast.
