looks pretty good. why only 5 lug in the rear?

Post by **Zydeco** » Wed Dec 15, 2004 10:35 pm

yea, thats kind of weird.

Post by **SeVa-S13** » Wed Dec 15, 2004 10:45 pm

because 5 lug in the rear is alot cheaper and easier than the front conversion and I guess he didn't wanna wait?

They look good man...I bet they'd look better if you give the car a wash.lol

Very cool - I like the wingless look!

Let's get that badboy dropped and washed!

Post by **Ender_Zero** » Thu Dec 16, 2004 8:57 am

haha yes i agree with you all, im very poor and i didnt want to wait to do the 5 lug swap in the rear because i have a stack of used 16" tires in my garage and not too many good 15"ers im still working on getting all of the front 300zx brake stuff and s14 LCA and other various things before i swap over the front.

and i tend to neglect washing my car alot hehe...

looks good, is that the bronze duplicolor wheel paint??

Post by **wangless** » Thu Dec 16, 2004 10:14 pm

nice color. weird to be 4 in front and 5 in the back though lol

I hear that 4 lug front and 5 lug rear is the newest JDM crazy, so if you want to be JDM tight you'll rock it out as well.

Very nice. My buddy Joe painted the stock wheels on his sentra the exact same color.

i did the same thing to my 4lug SE rims, except i left that little lip polished and shiny. Im selling em as a matter of fact if anyone is interested. They look good though bro, at first i didnt notice the wheel front/rear difference, i knew something was off.

what kind of paint did you use as i want to do the same thing, not the same color but brand and a writeup please? btw...it looks really good

Post by **Ender_Zero** » Fri Dec 17, 2004 9:36 pm

haha a write up? well, i took my rims off and had the car on jackstands, cleaned the wheels really good with carburetor cleaner, then i just sprayed on the paint. no tape or anything. i did a lot of small coats and let each one dry about 5 minutes, while i was painting the other rims. i ended up just wiping the excess off the tire with a rag and some more carb cleaner. took me about 45 minutes or less and i was totally done.

that looks great and everything, but how about a close up?

Move the car closer to the front.
