do what you feel will make you happy at the end of day.
i think at the end of the day you would rather get those replica tes' but it might be a hassle. if it ain't worth working for it ain't worth having. ya digg?

anyways, replica wheels are just as good as over priced wheels. yeah i said it. i don't give a sheit either...holla.

 

 

I'd go with the stock 19's. You can probably get them fixed and powder coated for less than the money you spent on those replicas. Maybe get some 20mm spacers too. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.

 

Lol I appreciate the support and all but there's a huge difference in between replica wheels and the real thing. Have you ever picked up a real TE37 and felt its weight? No replica will ever be as light. Or even close.

I think I'm gonna keep these wheels, I just don't wanna deal with the hassle of waiting for the other wheels. If I get sick of them I can always go to a local G meet and greet and offer to swap them for a set of stockers.

 

Ah new dilemma. Talked to the guy and he said that the replicas come in 19's as the biggest size but they are wider 9.5 and 10.5, the gT5's are 9.0 and 10.0. So I think I'm gonna stick to the GT5's and have him paint the spokes black. What u guys think?

 

Moar pics!









I have to say the rims are growing on me but I still think they would look better with powder coated spokes.

 

too much CF on a white car man..

 

^ I understand that CF is either love or hate. I like it on white cars but that's me. I know my car will most likely get more hate than love from this site but I'm fine with that. I can take criticism.

 

looks go too me!

 

Ok spokes will be painted black and the car was promised for tomorrow! Should I hold my breath?

 

^

from what you said on your first post.... NOPE! Good call on painting the spokes.

 

Yes, too much CF on oreo car

 

Lol add to the Oreo look blacked out tail lights, tinted headlights and black painted rear valance.

As for settling in those rims with black spokes was my happy medium. I'm just gonna hope that they look good once the car is done and the paint won't peel off.

 

I wouldn't paint the spokes black. It's not "bling," they're machined face for crying out loud. No chrome is on the wheel man.

 

I think it will look better with the black spokes. I'm just hoping I'm right.
