Hey guys, I just posted new pics up of the wheels on the car.

They are just some quick pics I shot just after puttting them on the car, but since there was an ice storm that left 2" of ice on my driveway, I won't be posting outside pics for a while..hehe

hey i been spending time online so much looking for deep rims like those but i couldn't find any could you help me out ????
Thanks

 

There are lots of companies that do custom wheels. You are not going to find any rims like mine in some store, or in a magazine.

Companies like Simmons, ROH, Compomotive USA, BBS, Centerline etc. to name a few will do custom orders. One problem though.. can't be had on the cheap. Sorry. You are looking at $450.00 ++++ for each wheel for custom stuff, with no tires.

Check those companies on the web.. you can order from them fairly easy... ya just need very specific measurements...you don't want any mistakes...I doubt they would return a custom wheel if it didn't fit, if you catch my drift.

 

hey Z,

what color is that? i got some gunmetal pearl metallic paint that i am going to paint mine with and that looks a lot like it. if that's anywhere near what my color is, i'm gunna be glad i picked that color.

 

The colour of the centres is metallic Gun Metal Grey. (according to Simmons)

 

oh bye the way did u do anyhting to the suspension to make those wheels fit or is it stock i just put a set of tokico shock and motorsport springs on mine

 

The suspension is modified, but as for your question, I have stock spring perches. I have upgraded springs/shocks, etc.. and it has been lowered quite a bit.

these wheels would bolt on to any stock z suspension...though they would not clear the fender. hehehe
