ive been shopping for rims for a while for my s14. I want 17 or 18, lightweight, black rims(not gunmetal actually black like a polished black), deep dish with a polished lip.

Anyone know rims that fit that description please post a web site, name, pic please.

thanks

Just get the style wheels that you want and have them painted in the center to whatever you want. It will be more custom that way as well.

And those SSR Professors are mad pimp!

HELL YES I LOVE SSR RIMS. nah but like he said, if you want to semi-cheap, have them professionally powder coated or be like me and spray the rims. i have stock 91 se rims the 7 spoke ones. It came out pretty nice except when i hit this curb while drifting:(

You can even have them sprayed at a Body shop if you really wna them to look bling cause it looks just like car paint. A lot of show cars do that. For example all the HRE wheels you see that aren't silver are painted cause they don't sell them in other colors except for chrome and silver with the exception a a couple styles that they have in gunmetal.

i don't think semi-cheap and light wieght are in the same sentence with the type of rim you want.

i think painted rims look btter than the powdercoated ones--alot of times, black powdercoat flakes and stuff ( or fades)

ttt?

why.

just find some wheels you like and either rattlecan them or find a shop to powdercoat them if you want black so bad.

there really aren't a ton of options for:-cheap-black-good size-good offset

fn01rc fits the bill well, but no lip.

just get some 5chicken typhoons and paint the face and leave the fake lip polished.

if you want to spend money:work meister s1rssr professor sp1
