So, when our freezing weather finally let up last week I ran out and took a few pictures of my bucket. As always, I'd love to hear your opinions...good or bad. Thanks for your time. :goodjob:

As much as I like the polished I'm gonna have to go with the dark side. It flows with the color better and the tint.
Nice lookin car though. Once I get rid of my wifes car I'm gonna find one.

id go with the polished. you gotta have somethin to make your car "pop" and when it all blends together it dont really "pop". nice pics tho!

I had one jump ship, so I'm waiting for a replacement before they all go back on.
Fix your damn camber. Jesus.
Without the neg. camber my precious wheels wouldn't fit right. :(

The center caps just screw on. I think it was just loose enough to work its way off. I've done a few different color combos in PS, but haven't fully decided on anything yet.
i liek the polish better, but the dark looks good too.. did u paint them? or photoshop it? Its bagged so i will love it regardless..lol

Just a cheap paint job, so if I decide against it it's easily removed. If I decide to go that route I'll have them done professionally.

the dark side looks sick, love the stance and the whole car.
and if the caps are screw on and they keep coming loose, use Vaseline on them, it will give it a vapor lock, i have to do that with a set i had.
Murdoc

Thanks for the tip.
I'll keep that in mind once I get the new set.
i'm loving the darkside,what about a matte black centre and a body colored lip? if not at least what Mr.Clean said.

That's a combination that I haven't tried yet. I may give that a shot.

what wheels are those? and i love the dark color on the wheels i agree with EL42 about the black center and body colored lip. that would look better imo.

It depends on what you're goin' for. If you just wanna look good, dark side. If you wanna look good and have a bit of flash and pop and actually be noticed when you go to a car meet rather than blend in with the shadows, polished.
IMO, polished.

They're BBS RS. Here they are with the center caps, in case you didn't see it in my sig.

I've also considered a gold finish, something similar to this.

Nice! I don't think it really matters what color you paint them they will look sick regardless. Somethin about that dark green your car is makes it suitable for alot of combos.

03-02-2010, 02:55 PM
dark side for sure.....!
that was before i saw what you chose to go with... either way it looks awsome

Can't decide. Bu it's nice either way.

Thanks guys.
whats the specs on them things
They're 16x8 et24 on 195/40 and 16x9 et12 on 205/40.
New color looks great. Polished bolts would be legit.
Once money is a little better I'd like to do a proper rebuild with new bolts and powder coating oppose to just paint.
