[XLR8_]

ok i have a stock 04 G35 IP. 5% tint, and want to powder coat rims. i have the stock rims and dont know if i should do pearl white or semi gloss black? anyone have pics? i cant seem to find anything with a white car. please let me know what u think

What about gunmetal grey? I have a 2K6 with 19's and will probably go that route, whenever I replace my tires last year.

I actually think the white would look good. I used to have an Acura Type R that was white w/white and it looked great. Black/dark grey wheels are getting overdone in my opinion, and they seem to really dull a car down and kind of look like a NASCAR or something. Plus it's easy to get lazy with dark wheels and leave them break dusty too much, which looks like ***. But it's all individual taste, your the one that will look at it the most

I wanna go white but my friends say it will look out of place on a G... i reallly want to do it because i havent seen a G like that here in El Paso

I've seen ads with a G riding on white Volk TE-37s that looked very good. White is lots of cleaning, but we all clean the heck out of our cars anyway right? It's a good look, maybe more sporty than classy, but I don't happen to think black wheels look very classy either.

Lol yea we do keep our cars clean! the link below shows how the stock rims would look like and im thinking of doin it

Those do look good. On a white car (and a white car only) I still think that would look very good, as would the OE 19s in white.

I have OEM Ray's powder coated semi-gloss black, if those white OEM 18's are just painted there going to chip. And if there powder coated they might crack, so do your homework on them.

woll the rims are going to be powder coared in a glossy white.. i did ask if they would there at that garage they said not really..... But then i saw that they can powerd coat them bronze and i think it would look btter

[MJ-G35]

Well if there not forged they do have a chance a cracking, it happened to a guy on my350. One of his rims broke at all 5 lug holes, from the heat stress of powder coating.

To powder coat my rims is $280 so im really thinking about but any og u got pics of either white or black ones on the G

[MJ-G35]

Mine....got them done for $275.

those are nice bro.. my G rims arent those tho.... the there ones on that ebay link.. but i want the ones u got in urs!!!!!!!

[MJ-G35]

Thanks man, mine are the OEM ray's, you can probably find someone here trying to sell theirs

I can't afford the Volk GTS Phanotoms right now, so I opted just to PC mine instead of wasting money on cheap rims.
