i know what you're saying I guess that's why everyone paints them that colour but there's a fine line between them coming like that and being painted like that. They'd have to be done by a pro for me. Didn't alex have some up in a thread a while back? They looked good.

yeah i think they were sent to a pro :) choice of colours aswell.

 

i wonder if it'd be worth picking a set up spare, taking lots of time painting and then selling the originals :shrug:

What is it with Septics and over stretched tyres? That needs at least 30 mm more on the rear profile and 20mm at the front :thumbdown:

 

Not just the yanks...

On a slammed car it looks great and you need it too get the rims outside the arch and so you can turn the wheels!

I thought it was Illegal for any part of the wheel or tyre to protrude beyond the bodywork - something to do with pedestrian protection

When you say 'do the interior' what exacttly do you mean?

 

well, all the lighting and where ever else i think needs a splash of matching colour :)

Top of the wheel is almost inline with the arch... law says nothing about camber ;)

 

And Ian... you know you dont want a GT-R anymore!! ;)

Its the tread of the tyre that cant be showing, not the tyre itself. :)

 

If done correctly I think its a good look, but you need big wheels and small archgaps to start with :)

Belongs to the user Vertex350Z on my350 :thumbs:

fantastic mate :yahoo: ta :thumbs:

 

Hey wolf boy, don't go stalking the poor chap now :lol:

Anyway i can't bame you! the wheel is a beaut and will suit your zed in GM B)

i'm sure you can swap with Alex on the ready painted ones he has for a small token his way! i wouldgo for red or even yellow :thumbs:

Do i take it that you will be considering lowering the zed to make it work well :p act fast as the are some springs about on the sales items ;)

 

PS. The new deal is on and just waiting for the first shipment to arrive so i can go check them in person before engaging this fellow B)

These are looooovely wheels...I was looking for a set when I first got my IS250...they look pretty tasty in gold! but that only works on dark coloured cars...
