So i talked to a few magazine editors and what they really want to see in my car is of course a turbo (coming this summer cough cough) and they love the color scheme but they just want some bigger and a little more high end rims. So basically i want to get rims within the next month and a half so heres the one choice im really stuck on. Tell me if you like it.

yeah those 350z's all had the time attacks.

well i have big plans for more black and red on my car and interior so the rims will just be an accent instead of the flashiest thing like the black z with the time attack wheels at stillen.

Cool cool.

As far as pinstriped wheels go... Vividracing has a Porsche with Volk wheels, with a colormatched stripe. Here is the only picture I could find:



The pic may be a bit old, because the Porsche and the stripe are now yellow.

Anyway I'm sure something like that would catch a magazines attention, if you have the money to blow.

I really like the PEnta rims with the red strip, just my opinion. I like the 5 spoke ones as well they would look sick on your ride!! good luck picking new rims

I didnt vote. But I do like the wheels. And I dont hate you either. I know how it feels to have people judge you by age and what you drive, its happens to me alot. And Ive always thought not to judge people because I dont like being judged.

lol. Mehdi, you're crazy.

+1 for not hating. Do your thing, be yourself and it'll all work out fine.

I'm more partial to the six spoke personally.

Well bro, when I asked you at the STILLEN event how you got all your work done, you responded, "my shop did all of it". Then you proceeded to explain to me about your monetary sources being your family, friends, and nieghbors. Never said you didn't work, however, if you make enough money, in high school, to pay your car note, insurance, fuel, modificaitons, etc..., then more power to ya. I don't think you do though. Turning your own wrenches is my big thing. Sure anyone car get a bunch of money and turn a car over to a shop, but anyone who has done their own work on thier car will get the respect from me, period.

Just doing things to your car yourself is wrenching. Reverting to a shop to do your work should be a last resort, or a prototype if applicable. At least try to learn a little something while pouring away your money into your car
