big thanks to S 854 (peter) for being awesome and keeping these wheels for me for so long. 18" 350Z track wheels, im going to redo them either black or a really dark grey not sure yet but heres a couple pics. I think to make it look perfect it needs maybe a 5mm/10mm spacer up front and a 5mm on the rears, it needs MOAR LOW in the front too.




the wheel i started on



i still have a ways to go, i might just get lazy and have them powdercoated, i hope this wheel thread doesnt end up like the last one i started

 

WOOT WOOT...No comment except about your Sig...I LOVE MY .45 Kimber...WOOT WOOT

 

you should use plasti dip. its better than sanding it down imo. anyway good luck

 

looks like you have an m15x as well. I love mine.

 

I say redo them blk as well or color match DG,
If you do them blk, a white bbk will look nice

 

Plastidip is crap imo, I dont get how people use that for wheels.

 

^^^^ Once I saw plasti-dip I knew you were a scroll away! LOL no seriously Plasti-dip is always getting bashed but it really is a good cheap product. HOWEVER, after taking a bashing from the (Big Spenders) i can honestly say it can't compete with a good spay job. It does work well as a base. I used it basically like filler primer and did some wheels white. turns out wheels looked FUGLY on guys car so got a blade and poof. well not poof like 2 hours peeling that ish off.

 

^ heh

Well I used some to spray my hella horns grill its pealing already, I just wonder about people who use it on wheels.

Its ok, not amazing as people say it is.

 

yeah six bucks of joy if you wanna practice. Nothing on real paint but if you F up you'll be happy! Hella horns vibrate and plasti-dip is more plastic compound not rubber so it cracks easy thats why it peels. It should give you 6 months on some wheels if not clear coated or painted over. Mine have plastidip then filler primer then paint so it been a year and I sold em guy hasn't complained yet! If you redo the horns try a light clear on top should help.

OP whats your drop?

 

Coupe S-techs

 

Looks great man,Im lovin that combo..love the painted pillars with with 18" 350z track wheels flows real well IMO.
