Yeah, but you're a Subaru guy. All Subaru guys like blue cars on gold wheels :icon17:

:icon18::icon18::icon18:

Seriously though, not generally a huge fan of that look. I'm that guy that wants to put silver RPF1's on every single car I own.

I have been looking on the Hyundai Gen coupe sites, and XXR is really big for them. A ton of them are running them, so dont see why they are bad wheels thats for sure. I am still laughing at the different color shoes comment, thats a good one.

:iagree: :icon18:

Looks great! It's different :tup: and welcome to the bold club ;)

Thanks for all the comments, good or bad. Now I would like responses from those who dislike the different colors. Why do you dislike it? I can take criticism as long as they are constructive.

tongman - for me, a car is pretty symetrical on the outside so i like to have the same parts on both sides of the car. that's all. now if i was racing and had sponsor decals to match or using staggered setup for oval or something i dont mind at all as it's for a purpose none other than $$$ or function.

IMO, it makes the car look cheap. The 2-color scheme is something I usually see on cars belonging to high-schoolers. I'll give you props for having the guts to rock it, but it's not something I would consider.


Plus the typical line about heavy knockoffs, but I'll spare you....

can't stand the gold - i would of gone all black
also i don't get the different colored wheels, just not feeling it.

If you really are set on 2 different color wheels, i would of made the front a set and the back the same color set
different colors on each side makes no sense at all, difficult to see both at the same time.
I just fail to understand the reasoning

i think that was the reasoning.... enjoy 2 cars with one car. :D

i would just hit both wheels with some matte-black wheel paint and be over with. :)

If you don't mind me asking, can you PM the price you paid and where you got the wheels?

I think he got em from Discount Tire, Custom Wheels, Truck & Car Rims | Discount Tire and like 175 a pop.

I ordered my set from here:

Discounttires.com has the lowest prices on tires and wheels, all name brands, and a huge inventory. In most cases, shipping is one to two days guaranteed.

The prices went up since I bought my set.

I know this is asking a lot, but can you take a pic of how flush it sits offset wise?
Also, any problems swapping the TPMS over?

I dont see 5/114.3 on there :(

5x114.3 = 5x4.5

Thanks man. Wish they made an 18x10, looks like I'd have to get it in a 19 :\

BTW - I've had the color idea that you have for a while. I don't see how anyone can talk badly about it. You only view one side at a time.

Thanks gaveup.

Offtopic: Did you know that the two pics I posted up above are the exact same dimensions, just that one is horizontal and the other is vertical?

I personally think the gold look better than the black. It just helps it stand out. The black look too plain to me. That being said I would not do what you did, but who cares? It's your car do what you like! Everyone else can suck it.

:icon14:

Vertical picture: 338x600

Horizontal picture: 800x450

Guess it got resized once I uploaded it to the forum.

God, I could have gotten 18 rims for the price I paid for 4 advans, lolol

switch your front wheels lol. Then you would have a black and gold on both sides. That would be really aganist the grain!

:ughdance:

I would suggest red and white wheels. have fun whatever you do. Life is too short.

And gotten them right away...

I wish there was a decent mIddle ground with rims for our cars.

lol, yah...you should see the prices i get for my honda fit (my dd). they're like $650 for THE SET WITH TIRES! :rofl2:

was telling the wife i can't even buy one of my 3pc SSR wheel-only at that price. you get wat you pay for. :tup:

actually there are... TSW Nurbs, Enkei RPF1, Weds SA55M, etc.

i run the weds on my car. was only like $3200 or something with tires from tirerack. cheap and well made.

this car from Revision Audio in Hawaii has two different wheels on each side.. even has different color lugs!

it looks like a damn xmas tree..... but that's just my opinion. :D

That's out of control.

SSR's are definitely awesome!

im gonna nerd out but those lugs are in the MtG colors.. LOL:ugh2:

by out of control, do you mean hideous?

Cheap as in basically 10% of the cost of your car?

I need a word that is more extreme than hideous. Herrafrush alone is hideous.

I kinda dig the OPs style.. I had a buddy in Tucson who had a blue s13 with F/R different colors..

is that not cheap for new wheels AND tires? :ugh2:

OP, that is slick and kudos to you, you got balls man. What I would do though is vinyl half of the car to complete the half experience since it already has the track look.

I guess props for trying something new....not my style
