Your wheels look GREAT like that with the time attack stripe.

Just curious why you didn't get the center caps painted to match?


If I had a set of Nismo wheels I would have to steal your idea.

To me items that "match" dont always look good. There needs to be contrast to make them stand out/pop. For instance, the powder coated color of my wheels would have matched the stock caliper color almost perfect. But, red contrasts/pops for a better look to me

I did black and copper on my 350Z. Still dark, but the contrast worked. Red would certainly stand out more.

(personally, the red/black combo isn't for me, even though it looks great on most Z's.)
