Machined with black edging

IMO time attack wheels only look decent on red or black cars...I think the red stripe on the wheel would throw off your look

The ones with the red stripe would only look good if you had other red accents on the car.

Go with the Machined with black edging.
Those look killer. Ive been considering new wheels as well and was actually looking at those for a while.

I dont think so, but would definately have to have an all white accented car to pull it off.
White with black and red accents is just to much.

I say get your kit painted white, and purchase the white w/ red lip. That would give it a clean elegant look, but a sporty look at the same time.
You dont have to worry about accenting anything red, your taillights are already red! LOL
A lot of people try to accent stuff to make it "match" a little better, but then it starts looking ricer!

My vote= white w/ red stripe!

Seriously, that would look nice in my book.
White car with white kit, the red line would just give it a subtle accent.
Like an all black car with red lips, hotness.
To this day, I still think I will go back to all white.......... one day that it is. Way too many rides now with the two tone theme, and black wheels is just crazy played out nowdays.


Photoshop it tiger, or have someone do it. Then make a decision. Wheels are big purchase, they totally make the car.

if your lip kit was white i would say go with the white w/ red . I think it would look good if your car was all white and had a red big brake kit . IMO !

Of course if you got the white ones with the red stripe you could always throw the Nismo graphics back on.

silver, or machined with black.

time attack colors (black/red) are lame and played out anyhow (unless you have a time attack car)

white wheels are and will always look dirty.
