Thinking about new rims. What do you think?

[Yakozan]

I'm thinking about buying new rims. A desperately need new tires for the SSR's but I can get a set of 17" BBS for about the same price (maybe even cheaper) then a set of tires. The BBS comes with good front tires and brand new rear ones.

I will paint them black if I buy them

This is how the wheels look like.

What do you think. Buy or not?
When these tires go blank, I'll put some Racing tires on for track days

Personally, :no: Don't like multi-spokes.

But they will be black and look the nuts on a black car
And it would be better for my economy then buying a new set of tires for my SSR rims.

Hmmm. I might give it a go

 

[Nicely]

Up to you Still won't like them. Neither will you the first time you go to clean them...

Depends on what you want to acheive - Good looks, don't buy the rims - Economy, go get 'em!

Not my cup of chai I'm sorry to say, even painted black.

 

[Yakozan]

I think I might buy them.

For good looks I hav the other rims
These will serve as temporary ones and then later track and drift wheels

I could probobly sell just the rims later with a small loss.

If anyone knows photoshop and would like to put the rims on my car and make them black. feel free to have a go

 

[Nicely]

For track wheels - go for it. :thumbs:

For track / drift wheels they will be great, but as a replacement i have to say no :no:

Don't worry. They weren't meant as replacements
I like the SSR's. If I ever get them replaced, I'll get som 18" with propper width, preferably VOLK or something. Gotto win a lottery first though.

I'm a complete PhotoShop novice, but I do have it and could have a go... apologies if it turns out terrible!

No worries
I just want a hint on how they might look on the car, and in black too
saw some black Audis with black rims on the car show. Looked very evil

 

[Yakozan]

I'll get you some better pics of wheels

 

[Topper]

Paint your SSR's black :thumbs:

Elizium would probobly kill me.
And I couln't live with myself if I did that. These rims isn't on the market anymore (SSR in japan went bankrupt), and when they where they costed nearly as much as VOLK TE37.
If I resprayed them i would have a small mob comming after me

 

[Jono]

Oh god, no I've just had a go and it looked like it was done in Paint! Apologies, I said I was a Novice!

Must get on a photoshop evening class :nod:
