Will370z Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I'll be honest i'm not a fan of black wheels on a black zed. Darren had it done a while back and it didnt look right, wheels looked tiny in those arches. I cant help but think the hub caps have fallen off 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suits Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Anthracite all day. I agree, black wheels on a black car look too bland. I used a BMW colour on my old track S2000 wheels, came up a million times better than I ever thought they would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panman Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I think there is a member on here that had the rays done in bronze and black body, looked really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Have to agree with Will on the hub cap look, unless you have a big set of after market wheels it doesn't look right but each to there own. Now Anthracite, as suits says - that looks good. A set of Varrstoen ES2's or Rota grids is what you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick-r1 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Suits I had my old skyline done that colour.loved it. Anthracite on black hell yeah. Black on black cheapens the look IMO. Nice rays bronze works too although I dont like bronze wheels at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Flat black works well, have a look at this, not the the RAYS but it gives you an idea of how the colour looks - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/32711-rota-gtr-wheels-–-350z-fitment-from-cougar-store/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoota80 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 I can see what U's mean about them looking lost I did consider getting the gloss black with a red day 8-10mm strip round the outside How much do rays sell for if I were to sell them?

MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Rays tend to fetch between £350-£500... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MITZ@CougarStore Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 A set of these will help with the RAYS - http://cougarstore.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_18&products_id=30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suits Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Rota Grid's will always look fantastic on any car, unless you want the real thing (RAYS TE's), but £6000 on wheels is a bit much IMO. Also, I've never really been a fan of lipped wheels, they tend to give the appearance of the wheels being smaller and give them less of a presence in the arches.

scoota80 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Yeah they would look awesome but £6000 is far to much ha I agree.. I thought about this to with regards to the lip as it does make them appear smaller! Suppose what's the worst that can happen.. Could spray them Gloss black and if I don't like them then spray then anthracite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
