Carlo, go to Rite-Way. Better than Wheel Technique. If they say itll take two days to finish your rims, expect for 4-5 LOL. Ive only heard awesome things about rite-way however.

I'm mostly worried about the color matching. The Advan Bright Chrome finish is similar to the Enkei SBC.

It's a sort of black chrome. Silver-ish in daylight, dark in the shade.

I don't want a shop to mistakenly paint my wheels full chrome and turn my evo into a donk.

^ Wsup with the 6 rims? Can't just transfer the tires from the black to the sbc? Unless the specs are different or something.

One of the SBC wheels has a small bend on it. I'm trying to get it fixed, while getting it re-finished back in SBC.

While I do that, I'd also like to get the two black RS's painted in SBC as well.

I might give Rite-Way a try. There's no other wheel shop closer to uhhh.. the peninsula? lol.

It seems the good shops are either in south bay or east bay.

Haven't been able to drive my car for like 2 weeks because of rain. Looks like it won't stop for a couple more weeks either so any driving and working on my car has been put on hold.

I'm too ****, so the car never sees a drop of rain lol.

I was the same when I had my G35. Unfortunately, when I sold it, the new owner treats it like garbage. -_-

I Don't think they have a lot of color choices. Mostly common colors that's it.

Anybody else need's stuff installed? Add yourself to the list and what need's to be done.

Wheel Technique's just replied to my email.

They said it will be $1250 for a set. So about $600 for two wheels to get finished in SBC.

Too expensive?
