i deff prefer the concave 10-spoke look, im going to have to have them painted white though. white works for the design i think.

this is not my first rodeo.

i'm on my 6th or 7th 240.

ive had an sr, ka-t, and rb25.

lets just say im addicted. cars are my life.
No offense, but I'm not a leg-humper. I meant pics of your cars. I'm sure alot of us would love to hear about your 240's, since you seem to have alot of experience...
Maybe you should make an introduction thread... :wavey:
oh im not new here. it has been a while since ive posted and forgot my original screen name. and the email it was under so i made a new one.

i believe im just going to do the 17x8.25s up front. i think the 9.75s will stick out too much for my taste.

thanks again for the advice :)

You might be onto something. I think it's the black/dark centers that's turning me off. Maybe if they were a different color... hmmm

Yea gold with silver lip would be hot! That's why I'm leaning towards the 521s. I got 5 lug hubs and rotors now I just need wheels.

For the meet, I'm down. Thursday?

I LOVE shiny gold wheels. But I also like the Black Chromium finish enough to keep it. I'd just want a prism effect on the lips, like 57s Pro's...

What do you mean the gold 521's don't have good sizes/offsets/prices? They're the same as the other 521's...
18x10+25 Gold 521's for $146 each... :poke:
http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-521-Wheel ... 180147.htm

18x10 521's weigh 25.8 lbs. Not too hot, but lighter than my 18x8.5 350Z Anniversary wheels... :bigthumb:

Oh, I see. Yeah, their 17 sizes suck. I agree with that view for hatches, but I like 18's all around for coupes and vert's. But have you seen Mattyboi's vert with 18x10 521's and 245 rubber all around? Kinda hard to argue this kind of awesomeness...

2 Versions, forged or cast (hence the 'c').
