Rims! plus a Paintjob!!!

[nlghtcrawler]

hey guys, its been a while!!
i got some good news!!
i didnt sell my 'maro
but i am getting some $$$ so im getting a new paintjob in the next month or so!
im gonna paint it solid black
i got a question about some rims tho, i know 17's will fit with some low profile tires, but will 18's fit?
anyway i'll be in and out of here.

Damn man, where you been at?

Anyway why are you getting a paint job? Seems like your paint on the car looks good right now..

[nlghtcrawler]

that picture was taken a year ago, when it did look nice (it was kept in a grauge b4 i got it) but now new mexico weather just beat down that already fading paint job, and you dont see the hood in that picture, plus i think black will be a nice color.
i've been at school, my gf had a baby, umm my gf's mom hates me and got a restraining order on me, their making the whole family move tomarrow, ummm lets see, school still sucks.. i've been around

Oh.. well the only thing about black is what everybody tells you

But its worse.. I mean seriously.. just a spec of anything and its visible on the car.. just letting you know.. so if you're one of those that likes to keep it looking clean (Like me) you're going to be washing it often..

[Genopsyde]

it's not that bad. the white car is much harder to keep looking clean than the RS ever was.

Black to me is harder. I have had both and the black always seems to show everything like even a layer of dust.

And in new mexico your gonna be dieing from heat in your car if its black. 18" will fit fine. the tire size would be like 275-30's and will be the original diameter.

rough times man....

your the sugar in the gas tank guy from a while ago right?

[nlghtcrawler]

lol ya, i got that problem over with, lock gas cap now!! but for a while i was gonna sell my maro, but then i desided im'a dump a lil cash into her

[Mr. Luos]

I think a 17" wheel looks best.

[92zcamaroperson]

agreed. 17" are suppose to handle better too arent they? a little lighter too.

[97cavalier]

cool, have not seen you on in a long time, i am painting my 92 black also. And 17's are the way to go!! i like the Torque Thrust II's on a black 3ed gen.

[92zcamaroperson]

yeah! black is the niceness. My car is black. But im telling you it gets friggin HOT!! Literal egg cooking hot.

[97cavalier]

i am painting mine black and i will not have a/c any more,lol. i am going to cook.

[92zcamaroperson]

it will look pretty good.

Something to consider is the fact that the car will lose value when you change the color.

yea black is awsome on third gens. just keep ur a/c cause u will cook in the summer. if u do a color change, everytime u open the doors, hood, or hatch, u will see the original color (unless u are going all out with paint and pulling the engine and what not).
