I dont see any pics? Also it would be great if you could post up a side shot of the car so we can see what rims look best. I know what thors car looks like but it would still help to have a pic right in front of me.

300zx rims FTW!!! Ha ha, I dont like aftermarket rims on 1g's, not unless they are the "mesh" rims but I still think they look a little out of place. If I were you, I would pick up some 300zx rims like mine or some TT RX7 rims, those were what I was looking for before I got mine for $40 with tires :grinyes:.

1g's look nice with a set of bronze or gold 5/6 spoke 17's or 18's with a nice drop. I know it sounds funny, but it really looks badass, i'll try find a pic.

I was just thinkin about ordering just some cheap 5 spoke black ones off of ebay. Not the thin spokes though like little ricer civics, but some nice wide spokes. Not quite like Thor's but similar. Will look for the pic.

How about some Volks? Kind of over played, but they look good. Better with a drop though... :runaround:

Maybe Mesh style? It also looks pretty good, but also needs a drop.

Shiney five spoke design.. looks good but really shiney, offsets the car a bit I think, but that's just my opinion.

These rims I'm not a big fan of. These are the kind of rims you'll probably find close replicas of on ebay/"tuner" shops. I just think it shows the car's age, or maybe the car just needs new paint.

These rims, I find really sweet. It's kind of hard to tell, but the rims match the age perfectly I think. Plus, I find this to be a hot car overall.

If you like the old school look, there are tons of companies in Canada that import cars and also sell JDM rims and other parts. There's always a good selection on used rims on really good prices. http://www.importconcern.ca/parts/list.php?cat_id=10
* Keep in mind, I've never dealt with import concern, but just using their stock as an example. Hope this helps a bit.

The volks look so damn good on that car. Thats what I would put on there if it was mine. Volk rims are pretty expensive but im sure you could find some that look just like them fairly cheap.

Volks = teh overplayed ghey. I guess they do look ok, but man, you cant make a run for a 6 pack and a big mac without seeing 5-6 other cars rocking the exact same shit.

This car FTW.

And I these wheels on this car for some reason. Give it a 2" drop and she'd be hella sexy.
