40140, Once again new rims...Opinions please
Posted by BlitzdEclipse99, Feb-05-03 04:13 AM
Well guys, I'm changing rims once again. I've been through 4 sets already, never can make my mind up. Anyways, I'm looking into these 2 rim styles right now, I'm open for other suggestions though.

Here's Choice #1:


Here's Choice #2:

The Gunmetal Ones

What would you guys do? Remember, my car is white with a Blitz Front and sides, Bomex rear, Z3 Fenders, and VIS Xtreme GT C/F hood. Thanks for your opinions and suggestions.

White car w/ white rims is too much white IMO. Go with the gunmetal...or dare i say chrome :o.....chrome rims on all white cars looke hella sweet.

I've already been down the chrome route, I had a set of Focal F5s in the chrome version. I didn't really like them, they didn't suit my tastes like all the others. I'm really leaning towards the gunmetal rims right now. Gunmetal + Polished Lip + White Car = Hella Sweet!!

Go with the second choice in gunmetal. Should look really good with the CF hood! Oh.......and get some pics of your car up!

Thanks for the quick replies, I'm trying to get some updated pics up now. We lost our domain contract so I have no way of hosting pics anymore, hopefully by next week I'll have a new one and be able to get some new pics of the finished bodywork.

I like white on white look.... but I think its a little played.

I think gunmetal is really nice. I have always been a fan and if I ever get the money to buy rims again, I will buy some black or gunmetal 17's.

I'm down with the Gunmetal ones. You should take a look at the Exel wheels on wheelmax.com. The "mimi" rims are very similar to your second choice (the gunmetal ones). I'm probably going to pick up a set of rims from this place in a few months; seems like they have some good deals.

I also like the 2nd choice, the 1st choice looks a little too much like the stock OZ wheels IMO
