so many options its too hard to say.
what style are you after? JDM racer, luxo, bling? size?
CE28 are pretty widely regarded as one of the best on the S (but not for me).

Not a fan of white on yellow, I think darker colours would work better on a bright car. Bronze or gunmetal on yellow looks sick

i'd go ce28's silver/polished/bronze, there's also white with red lip. nice sensible rims, although too common

guys, you reckon $2178 is a good price for the above? What's the normal rrp?

Ludecrs - I'd be able to get a full pallet freighted to SA for $140, let alone $280.

Thanks

color, hmmm ..sorta scratching my head bout what to get for my white now. was thinking of just silver (SSR type F)..black's ok if you have other black items to go with. white's just too "yo".

ideas? why's everyone up so early anyways?

Rims are like shoes man, personal preference look around and when you find something you like and you believe suit ur car research on it and price etc. Everyone is up early cause they have work.. well I do anyway lookout

nice, they match the car very well. Home job paint or powdercoat?

doosra
13-11-2010, 06:55 PM
Yeah home job but might redo them cause the inside parts of the mesh are too light but too lazy

nice work :thumbsup:

I'm thinking of changing my wheels up from anthracite to a bright silver finish (would suit NFR better). the wheels were powdercoated a few months ago but the job was a little dodgy and its chipped a little, etc.

Don't want to powdercoat again as I'm afraid the heat will disturb the structural integrity of the wheels (search around, you'll see what I mean).

Anyone know a good place in Melb for getting wheels painted rather than powdercoated? And how much would it cost? I guess the old paint will need to be stripped/sandblasted off and the tyres will need unmounting/remounting. how much altogether?

haha. i'd put spinners on it ftlols. jk.

as vyets said, rims are like shoes... go with what you like. Your original post was pretty vague, maybe its better to shortlist of say, 5 rims with photos, and then start a poll to get people's opinions and help.
