Challenger Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Yeah, they look great but didnt you have to roll your fender lips? (man I wish I had done that before I painted the car ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Yes but it's not difficult at all. I literally did all 4 sides in 30 minutes with just me and my brother. I prefer it this way now anyway, it just looks that much better having the tire all the way at the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hmmm. I like those. They look alot like the watanabes. Where did you get them and how much? They look alot bigger than a 15. Was that the only size they offered? Im looking more into a 16 maybe 17 but I like that style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e_racer1999 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 i got them used and refinished them. they're 15"s, they just look huge next to the 510 (plus they're in front of the wheels on the car). got 'em for $500 for all 4. this was the only set they had. check used JDM wheel places around you. there's one right by my house that has a lot of wats but they are all high positive offset; not suitable for Zs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 Hey, update... still need ideas. This time I have money. Ive so far looked into the imagines and xxr 006's. Ive ruled out adaptors now since they look rinky dink and they cost $200. Ive been considering the RBR 16x8 +04 but Im not sure, its not EXACTLY what I want. Need more ideas on close to zero offset wheels that will fit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S130Z Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I personally favor the Sportmax 002's. I am saving up for a set this summer after the V8 swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I would second the opinion on the 002's, I sport a set of the silver ones and they are sharp! Nice lip too... question though, is your trim chrome or black? I would match the wheels to the trim as far as color goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 EVerything on my car is black, grey, or red. (lights) NO CHROME! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 On that note, I believe that a solid black wheel would be pretty sweet on your car. The question is, flat or gloss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 Although the trim is flat im not sure if I want flat black wheels. Some that Ive seen look cheap. Heres what it looked like in summer. It is now lowered all trim and windows are in, and various other things. Looks alot sweeter now.

rturbo 930 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 For your budget, I'd say 16" Sportmax 002's in silver, or Konig Rewinds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_furious Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Rota RB-R, 16 x 8 +4 offset, flat black finish. ...and lowered a bit, with glass, trim and some Willwoods from AZC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 SWEET!!!! Thanks, that looks awesome!!! Does that mean I need to get wilwoods..... :) New sig!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_furious Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Glad you like it! Wilwoods are up to you, of course. Just needed something to throw behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 So where is the best place to look for the rbr 16x8 flat black +04? 18racing? Ebay doesnt have any listed. I saw the "group buy" thread and people were getting them for $650 shipped. I also noticed the front bumper... I had fg bumpers but I sold them. Stupid me. Know I need to find a good front bumper and brackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
