Dope or Nope?
 
Ok car fashionistas. I want to make my black 370z stand out and look cool.

My plan is to install a set of BC Forged HB04's in the colour scheme seen here on this white R35.

Mine won't have the step lip, so the inner gold ring will be larger, and my concavity will look much deeper like these

Try to imagine what the gold inner with gloss black outer will look like on a black 370z and give me a dope or a nope in the poll.

Not really my style, so I can't vote Dope. But they look pretty good, so I can't vote Nope.

In the end, it doesn't matter what other people think. Do you like them? Do you want them on your car?

Do you think the colour is bad, or just the style?

Well I think they will look nice, but I have no way of seeing them on the car without forking over the dosh. :ugh:

Thanks for your feedback though.

not a fan of black lip, colored spokes, especially on a black car
the lip/tire/body will all just be a dark blob

i'd go all gold

but at the end of the day if you have good sizing and stance, it'll be better than some crappy battleship

Thanks for the advice. I guess I could reverse it and go gold lip, black spokes like this mustang.

Using some extremely poor paint skills I have tried to simulate what it will look like.

The gold color looks nice against the black body. The spokes are a bit too spiky for my taste.

There is a thread to request photoshops of different items on Zs. The site's search function is pretty crappy IMNSHO - go to one of the web searches and add "site:the370z.com" to your search string. Eg, photoshop request site:the370z.com

Of course,we all have opinions based on our personal likes...
The gold is terrible.IMO-may make the car stand out,but makes it look cheap.
Many years ago,I bought a new car(Audi).Had BBS wheels put on it.The mesh style
was the rage.It was either silver or gold. I choose gold since it appeared to "blend"
with the car. Looked good for a few weeks.Then like the special "car show" colors,
I wish I'd have chosen the silver.

Went to the website you posted & looked at different setups :ugh2:
I’m partial to the red centered wheels :tiphat:
Anything they sell looks very nice, appear to be quality wheels :iagree:
These are 19x10/11.5 w/275/35,325/30’s :yum:

A little to flashy for my tastes (says the guy driving the red 370Z), but, of the choices, I like the gold lip with the black spokes better. But that's just my opinion, and I could be wrong.

Try using bronze instead of gold.
IMO-bronze is a bit understated and will give your black car a richer look.

The black spokes with the gold lip = WINNING!!!!!!!:rock:

mikeb 01-19-2020 10:59 PM

Because you want the Z to stand out, the gold spokes work for me. It's a muted gold, imho it blings without shouting "look at me"

Zezus 01-20-2020 10:42 AM

Meh.
Gold lip black spokes look better than the inverse.
