I prefer the silver NISMO wheels. They really pop & expose the beauty of the wheel which were a deciding factor for me to go with a NISMO version. IMO, the darker wheels look more sedated

Very nice! I love the black wheels. Have you ever considered painting the calipers red to go with the black wheels? That would really pop inside there. I've seen a few guys do that and it looks great. I love the red calipers with my gun metal wheels.

The darker wheels whether black or the gun metal look better IMO than the silver. Just not a fan of the silver.

Thanks Dude! I think I might just paint the calipers red one of these days.

Agree with darker wheels looking better. The plain alloys I think are just kind of boring.

The paint color for the car is KAD but those wheels are the ones that come directly off a 2013 Nismo. I could be wrong but I don't think he painted those. It's definitely a nice look for the wheels.

I had the wheels painted KAV (the 40th Anniversary body color). The wheels came off of a 2009 Nismo that was converted to a race car and races in the Continental Tire series.

I think the silver is whats played out. You didnt really start seeing cars have dark rims "aside from aftermarket" until the last few years. But pretty much since the beginning of cars....... rims have always been shiny silver or chrome. silly non conformists, non conforming so hard they dont conform with the other non conformists. who gives a flying dogs a$$ what is "popular" at the moment, just go with what you like!!

I believe the color code is actually KAD. At least that is the color code for the gun metal paint color as that is what I had to get when I bought the Dr Color Chip. I don't believe they are the same but are pretty close looking as you mentioned.
