lookin good

lol dude you say that in every picture comment...

but thanks...

[Team Havoc]

i only tell the truth

[scort2498]

i dont like the black lip IMO it makes the tire look really really thick and the rim small...

[mountaindew30oz]

i think your right... i would have gotten a polished lip but i didnt want all black rims

[Beodude123]

You definitely have the color reversed. Black spokes, polished lip. That's the way it goes, and that's the way that it looks good.

Don't go against the grain man, it makes the wood bad.

I agree.
Aside from that, I think it looks good :)

[corbygasm]

im still unsure.

[TranceZ]

That's kind of a different look, but I like it.

[Mike]

I'm with the polished lip and black rims...but hey....its better then stock.

I like em...sorta...lol

[Sir William]

As always when it comes to rims, it's ultimately up to the person buying the rims.

That being said. IMO they kinda jump out a bit too much for my taste.

It's like you're looking at this all black car (which is sexy imo), and when you get to the rims it's "Whoooooaaaaa...... holy crap those stand out"

[zxtuner98]

i kinda like those rims lol.

[skyhighron]

i have black spokes with chrome lip but i like those, something different. when i got my rims i was the only one in the city with them, now its all anyone buys. nice rimmies

[CBZx2]

I didnt like them when I first saw them, but the more I look they dont look too bad, something different

[WillZX2]

im still unsure.

x2

I think I like it though, definately not a common look.

[MrWeeyums]

They look unique. Ive never seen those rims on a car before. Kinda the opposite of the black with a polished lip everyones been running.

[mountaindew30oz]

Thanks guys for the comments guys. to be honest i didnt like them at first lol but i love em now!

[Manbearpig]

Those rims look like they belong on a truck for some reason.

Whatever you like though!

yeah, i feel like the colors are reversed too.

[Hypnose Zx2]

idk about this:confused:

[ZXWHO]

I like those rims! I always liked the rims with Black lips or with the parts of the lips Black. They look cool spinning and look like part of the rim is missing. Good choice IMO

[zxtuner99]

nice man i like um.... i like the black on black with the little bit of silver...

[wudafxup]

lookin good bro

[MellowedZX2]

I was originally going to suggest lowering another half inch, but relooking at the pic it is good that way, It looks kinda like a HotWheels car, you know... almost cartoonish in an appealing way. If we like 'em good choice, if you like 'em great choice. Definitly different.

maybe a good shine of the tires will set them off..

[gogetrzx2]

I like the rims, to much tire though imo.

This is the first car I thought of....if it was all black.

Rims looks kinda alike. 5 spoke....8 spoke...whatever.



Not bad. Armorall your tires and wash the car then take a few more pics with everything polished up shiney.....

[morningstar2101]

i like em, something different. btw, use the black magic titanium tire wet spray, its absolutely amazing. i wouldnt use armorall anything on my cars.. ..

[Buster]

Tire Foam works well.


The rims are unique. Love the thick tires.

[Escort Pimp]

Eww. They're Motegi's so they're probably heavy too.

[mountaindew30oz]

Washed the car and cleaned up the rims a little bit...

[zx2loon]

[ZX2 Sleeper]

[Escort Pimp]

Looks better now, but they're still heavy

[mountaindew30oz]

Looks better now, but they're still heavy

true but i dont really care my car is slow anyways...

Be careful with getting the tire cleaner on the tread.

Years ago there was a story about some stupid kid with an Audi who Armor-All'd the tread before a show...took the car out in the rain with traction control turned off (who knows why) and totalled the car because there was zero grip with his "waxed" tires.

:D Idiot.

You only got the edges so it should be fine, but just making sure you know.
