My 08 G37s Coupe on XXR 531 Platnuim

Wutsup guys just got a set of 531 platnuims mounted onto my 2008 Coupe.... This is my first mod next step is lowering springs to clear the wheel gap a bit then hopefully plastidip on the inside of the wheels let me know what you guys think.

Think it looks pretty nice and the springs will definitely help with the gap.

Question...Where is the plastidip going on the wheels and why?! Lol

The plasti dip is going on the inner face of the wheel and the lip is going to remain aluminum im hoping to dip it glossy black the reason I want to plasti dip it is because I wanted the black with the machined lip look but couldnt find anything to clear my brakes

Did you look at the XXR 521's? I'm actually considering those and they come with a black machined lip I believe. A lot of offset options as well to clear the brakes, maybe you could use spacers too.

The 521s are only offered in 18s I like the look of XXr 521/531s so i just decided on 531s becuase of the simplicity and look lol
