New wheels

[Jersyboyy]

Got a set of 5 spokers on my car to replace the snowflakes. I put some 255/50*/16 M/T ET streets in the rear too. Tell me what you think.

[Jersyboyy]

Are they not right under my original statement?

[LTb1ow]

Nope.

[ar0ck]

You linked attachments, not .jpeg extensions.

[Jersyboyy]

Should work now. My bad.

[chrisfrom nj]

looks great

[sweetbmxrider]

nice. paint em flat black :twisted:

whats up with the reverse rake? need adjustable front struts? rear shocks shot?

[NJSPEEDER]

Looks good.

[Jersyboyy]

New struts and shocks all around actually.
Im certain the springs were replaced with lift springs by the last owner.
Im broke anyone wanna donate a set of stock fornt springs for a thirdgen?


On another note what do you guys think they would look like flat black? Anyone wanna photochop it for me?

[ar0ck]

Flat black wheels just like dirty wheels. i wouldn't do it.

dont laugh:

I attempted to highlight the raised parts of the rim that would look lighter...just didn't look right and i dont have the time to give it more detail so i got rid of the highlights, but u get the idea

[SamhainZ28]

i have stock fronts from a third gen you can have

[Jersyboyy]

Thanks ill def stick with it as is untill I can afford paint and some nice 18/19s.

[BigAls87Z28]

255/60-16? Thats a big ass tire!! Should be a 255/50-16 at the most. They sure dont look like a it has a sidewall that big.

[Jersyboyy]

Al is correct 255/50/16. Even tho he didnt give his OPINION ON THE WHEELS

[TheBandit]

Change those springs dude.. i saw your car at nonna rosa's coming home from school and the front is damn high.. wheels def look better than the old ones.

[Jersyboyy]

Samhain just dropped off stock springs. gimme a week or two and the car will sit real nice.

Nice.. im actually looking at a deal to get rid of my car for an 85 maro with a fresh 355 :twisted: hopefully it happens

[BigAls87Z28]

Wheels look good. Buuuuuuuuuuuut yeah, 4x4 ride hight needs to go.

[madness410]

looks good...better than the snowflakes. i think if u paint them flat black it would give them a weird look. i can see them colored orange or red though. but that would severly hurt the resell value

[madness410]

..wow reading my comment from before...dont do the orange or red

[Jersyboyy]

Hhahahhha at least you corrected yourself before I opened a can.

[sweetbmxrider]

maybe do a dark gun metal gray? i bet the front all jacked up helps transfer the weight harder for dragging.

[GP99GT]

since that first photoshop made me want to throw up, i did a better one.

flat black/gunmetal wheels, lowered, front end leveled out.

Too flat imo doesn't look good

[sweetbmxrider]

yeah chrome would probably be best

[Jersyboyy]

ehh i like the lowered look, the gunmetal looks good but its not worth it. If I get 100 bucks im getting 18/19 chrome vette wheels. But that was a great quality photoshop thanks matt!

[NJSPEEDER]

If you guys wanna discuss tire prices and rims for sale, take it to AIM or PM's.

Yeah, I didn't axe the first posts, just the last two. :mrgreen:

[IROCZman15]

that last photoshop job looks the best
but why is hte car flat black? it doesnt look appealing... ?

[Jersyboyy]

As of right now its more appealing than part primer part blue.
Some say they like the flat black look too.
But eventually its going to be painted a nice black with metal flakes and a clear coat.
