Question rims??

I'm starting to do major mods to my car now (finally ) and am either getting the TEIN NAs or the JICs (if the group buy goes through) but I also need rims. I like how gunmetal looks against silver so I was wondering if anyone knew of a good set of 17" gunmetal rims that aren't too expensive or too heavy but are strong (not much more than $1,000). I've been looking around but haven't been able to find many gunmetal rims. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. Thanks!

Gunmetal would go great on silver. I'm going with gunmetal on black!

you could get whatever rim you want, and then you can always get it powdercoated gunmetal.

Where I can from, our mod shop has some major
phat rims in stock, and at the warehouse. We're able
to slap on 2 17''inches to see how the car looks, and
try 18's, etc.. before purchasing.

Of course, there are limits, can't try every size, and every rim
decide and get serious kinda thing.


When I visited Europe, I've seen some very fast,
highly tuned machines. The one that caught my eye
was a nice silver Silvia car with 18''inch white rims.

I have never seen a silver car with white rims except
in Europe. The 2 fastest cars at the track have this
color scheme. I love it. Very clean.

I guess it's all a matter of taste. It's like unwritten law
to not have white rims on a silver car around here, I've
never seen this scheme in Canada. I wonder why :licker:


Just my .o2 cents US (3.43$ Canadian hehe)

Hopefully the group buy for JICs will go through by the end of this month and I'll get my rims by the end of this month also. As soon as I get everything setup I'll put up pics.

I was actually thinking about white rims on a silver car. But I think white rims look best on red or electron blue cars. Just my opinion.

PLEASE SIGN UP FOR THE JIC GROUP BUY SO I CAN GET THEM SOON!
