Thanks. I'm trying to decide whether I'll keep the lettering or not. I payed $500 from silviawerks, just waiting on my ss lines.

Nice looking...

Question do they clear stock rims? I've heard both yes/no.

depends on the year of the stock wheels. the last two years of the S13 had a different casting in the wheel that made the back of the spokes intefere with 26mm Z calipers. 92 and down didn't have this problem.

That paint looks nice on them. I thinking of painting mine dark blue to match my car or getting them powder coated by a friend for cheap.

I would recommend high temperature paint over a powder coated finish. I did some work for a company owner called Powdercoat specialties(Tualitan, Oregon ), I discussed some of the techniques the are part of the process with him. He recommended to me at that time, coating of parts requiring high strength durability such as wheels ,brakes, driveshafts, etc... would be better with a painted finish. Due to the stress of the high temperature heat oven used to cure the process of powdercoated finishes. It can weaken the part you are trying color. So any way that is what suggest.

I like the yellow z brakes, i think I'll probably do mine in Silver or Black, once I have a chance to rebuild them.
