Nismo Wheels on my 40th.

Crxckadome · 06-06-2013, 10:19 AM

@ Mike- Sorry I didn't clear that up earlier- I've seen the one you posted but it's not with KAV colored wheels. IMO they look great on the car silver but I'd love to see them with a gunmetal or KAV color too. I know for sure I wouldn't be a fan of all black Nismo wheels on the 40th.
Thanks for helping in this needle in a haystack search though! Looks like I might just have to buy them and paint them to post a damn picture lol

I also didn't see any on those two threads, searched up and down those many of times. Google didn't even come up with any results...

that's odd, he had it painted to KAV...

I thought the new 2013 nismo wheels were gunmetal, as well.

I believe you're right, so even getting those would require a re-spray... I'm going to bite the bullet soon enough and either have them fully polished or paint them KAV, probably after Disney in July.

The wheels on the 40th are not painted KAV

Crxckadome · 06-10-2013, 07:00 PM

Really? I must have mis-read that somewhere in the forum then. What color are 40th wheels painted?
Also- side question- do you have a tracking number for that spring? Still hasn't popped in the mail.

Oooh, my old thread got revived. Try to have someone photochop a 2010 40th with 2013 Nismo wheels. Let me see what I can do.

Crxckadome · 06-11-2013, 09:35 PM

Someone did in the Official photoshop request thread that I requested but it's not the same color. His photoshop was a duller color Nismo wheel.

LMBmikeZ · 06-11-2013, 10:09 PM

there has been wheels that were colour matched to KAV and they did look pretty good but not the same as OEM 40th wheels

Got my Forged Specialties SC-M7's mounted!

karotZ · 06-12-2013, 02:29 AM

Here we go, as promised:

Sorry for whoever owns this 40th we used as a photochop sampler.

LMBmikeZ · 06-12-2013, 05:08 AM

looks good! .............other then the front wheel

But you get the idea at least

Wow. I'm usually not a fan of dark wheels/ dark car but it does look good. Helps accent the calipers. So this is the 2013 Nismo wheel, which is not the same color as the 40th wheel color right? Or am I confused here.

You are correct, the 40th anniversary and the 2013 Nismo wheels are of not the same color code.

On a side note: rocking gray car w/ gray wheels, or red car w/ red wheels isn't my cup of tea. The only thing it works on is black car w/ black wheels IMO.

LMBmikeZ · 06-13-2013, 05:02 AM

I disagree with the side note though, it can be done it just depends on the colours and on the wheel itself
