My white poor man P45R's

[FolkertSX]

so i got really bored with the played out black rims. i think white on black looks great on civic and subies but not on my car for some reason. i hated how you couldnt actually see the rim from far away and at night time. so i decided to paint them white using dupli color white rim paint. we'll see how it holds up. these rims dont see any salt or snow so they should be fine. i painted the center caps white also. but im missing 2 as you can see in the picture the back doesnt have one. and then i painted my lugs black. on to the pics. the white looks awesome going down the streetshould look really cool when its lowered. my wheel gap makes me cringe. will def be lowered on coils or at least springs by march when i get my license

[Future_gohan]

please get coils :/

but nice rim color. lmk how that paint holds up.

[bersh240]

hold up ur 15 and have a nicer car than me?

rims look good tho

[sr20power]

that actually looks pretty good. but i'm also curious on how the paint holds up too....

[TurboSauce]

that thing looks like it wants to just jump

[S13k]

i love white cars with white wheels, can't you tell

[TurboSauce]

why not black on black with high beams?

at 15 its freakn hard to save up $800. im thinking about maybe trying at megan lowering springs since they go 2 inches. i havent seen any others that go that low. im just worried about quality. it seems like the more expensive they are the less they go lower. and ill keep this updated on how they hold up

i love white cars with white wheels, can't you tell

haha looks good. white rims are growing on me more and more

why not black on black with high beams?

im confused. i dont know what high beams have to do with it but i hate black on black. it makes me think of 300's and chargers with 22's. plus thats played out. when do you see white on white? hardly ever

[FolkertSX]

hey s13k got any close up pictures of your lug nuts? i was thinking about going red but then i thought gold would look sick.

[P_856]

i love p45r whats the specs on ur wheels?

[S13k]

sorry man i don't, i would go out there but its cold and dark as f*** out there. there nothing special there the cheap Muteki lugs. I would advise you to just get non colored lugs unless there the good kinds because all your gunna get are paint chips on colored lugs

[Dire91]

i love p45r

Ditto, but DDAAMMMNNN you need to do something about that fitment.

thats cool. just wondering if you had any on your computer. i have the kind where the key goes inside. its really nice because it stays away from my rim and the outside of the lugs. thats why i could even paint mine to begin with.

im working on it, im working on it *sigh*

[keith0486]

wow they came out good you try looking in the classifieds for used coilovers you might get lucky and find a good deal.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Get some contrast on that car asap. It needs something to offset the refrigerator white.

And lower as usual. I like your interior though. Wanna trade wheels? I got a Nardi Classic. And where did you get that shift knob?

[Justin35ll]

Looks alright, just wheel gap is ehh. gonna look really good when slammed though

[ProjectGarage]

Looks cool man, definitely will look better lower + crazy camber!

You arent poor though ahha are you?

[E7-S14]

looks good manwonder how that paint will hold up tho.i woulda sprayed it with a gun and cleared it.

im looking into a set of p45Rs. and wanting to paint them white also..

tho itl be black car white wheels.

[justinedible4]

looks good man.

[hbpignosePA]

RSRs go pretty low for a drop spring without being really sloppy

if u click my F/S thread for wheels thats what im running.

will be for sale soon too

car looks good, just needs a drop

[Dazzla]

Hmm turned out very nice

[S14toRPS13]

P45R's are hot. Never been a fan of white wheels though, but the paint turned out good though.

I'd highly recommend you not go with the lowering springs. 2 inch drop on S13's and hatches is a joke. I know, I had eibach springs before. Better than stock but no where near to my liking.

[Japakaze]

danggg makes me struggle now between white rims or gold rims on my white coupe.

The world loves white 240s with gold wheels. They also love white 240s with green wheels. They also love white 240s with highlighter yellow wheels.

[IanS]

Holy wheel gap

Looks good otherwise.

Looks cool man, definitely will look better lower + crazy camber!

You arent poor though ahha are you?

i was thinking about spraying them steel blue with a gun. but it would have been over $100 for paint. which i didnt feel like paying. this was cheap enough if it doesnt hold up its just my time spent

well than someone sell me some damn coils for cheap....please!

danggg makes me struggle now between white rims or gold rims on my white coupe.

i personally think gold looks better. but its to playred out for me. also depends what type of rims.

The world loves white 240s with gold wheels. They also love white 240s with green wheels. They also love white 240s with highlighter yellow wheels.

this man speaks the truth

Holy wheel gap

Looks good otherwise.

im so sick of this response.

[troskinatior]

how the hell did you get all of that at 15?

the white looks better then the black, good choice

[slidestyle69]

noice!! that is one of the cleaniest s13's ive seen in a while..keep up the good work

thanks guys. ive been saving since i was like 10 mowing lawns, working with my dad on saturdays and many sidejobs around my grandpas shopping strip and house so it all accumulates. my mom always made me save half and im very grateful. ive always had a passion for cars. never 240's though. hell i didnt even really know why they were so special until i was almost 15. nfs underground makes the s13 look disgusting. then one day i actually saw one and that it looked pretty neat.

If it is the actual Duplicolor wheel paint, and you did good prep work, the paint will hold up very well. I have a set of old OZ Monte Carlos that I sprayed with little more than a scotch brite pad scuffing and the finish has held up quite well. The only chips that are visible are from the tire mounting machine, and are very easily touched up.

However I have found that completely stripping the production finish and using rattle can primer does not work out as durable. That being said, your wheels look good. And in my opinion there are few things that look as good as a clean white car. Thumbs up.
