SF-Challenges in Gold..with an added feature_

Zerafian · 07-03-2009, 11:11 PM

I figured I would toss up a little preview of my aftermarket rims..I know its not a 370z but its still in the Z family.

The added feature is a powdercoated barrel

.
I'll be throwing up some nicer pics on monday after she's been washed and waxed.
oh and the red lugs are being done away with. Once I get the JDM tails there wont really be any red on my car. I'll be picking up some black ones next week.

let me know what yall think.

Personally, they look better in factory form - but to each their own.

6MT · 07-04-2009, 10:45 AM

my 2 cents... I think that wheel is ugly (sorry)

m4a1mustang · 07-04-2009, 10:48 AM

Yeah, I think there is way too much going on with that wheel.

StLRedrider · 07-04-2009, 12:13 PM

Sorry,

TonyBPD · 07-04-2009, 02:28 PM

How about a few more pics in more light.

M.Bonanni · 07-04-2009, 04:27 PM

Makes your wheels look smaller IMO. Props for being different though.

Zerafian · 07-04-2009, 04:37 PM

Thanks for the replies guys..I can agree with some of those comments..here are some more pics I took today after giving the car a wash.

nogoodname · 07-04-2009, 04:39 PM

the black lip makes the wheels look small overall..

OMGWTFBBQ · 07-04-2009, 04:43 PM

I think they look pretty nice. Nobody appreciates Phantom Edition Volks I guess.

nogoodname · 07-04-2009, 04:45 PM

they are nice, but a full black lip throws ppl off....the black Z has a red pin stripe, which breaks the rim apart from the tire...you get what i mean...lol

Zerafian · 07-04-2009, 04:46 PM

Im still considering
A: repolish
B: gold TA stripe to match the spokes

not sure yet.

TonyBPD · 07-04-2009, 04:49 PM

I think they look great. My buddy did black barrels on his Kinesis wheels back in the day and I liked that look also. - >

CrownR426 · 07-04-2009, 05:06 PM

Great pics!
I personally think they look great but they do make the rims look like 18's.
You should've just sold your rims before and gotten a new set of volks.
Clean ride though, can't deny that!

shabarivas · 07-04-2009, 06:13 PM

That looks sick man - Who cares if the wheel looks smaller?
