why is it JDM taste, do the Japanese Domestic Market have bad taste in rim colours

no, they just have different customs and traditions than you do. Its more of a hardcore jdm racer thing from Volk that has been transported into the tuning world. Just like the beloved "time attack" scheme... except you probably like that one a bit more..

... ask and you shall receive. Volk Racing does make an Orange color from the factory. I've seen both TE37 and CE28n in that color. Also, I believe on specific Gram Lights, you can order a color called "Luminous Yellow." It comes from their line of wheels that a lot of drifters are into.

I do 5-6 autocross events a year and 8-9 track events with NASA... caliper paint wouldn't last very long!

:wtf2:
I don't want to see that on a black car especially the rims...

1.) Black on Black
2.) Black on Gold
3.) Black on Gunmetal.
Good day! :tiphat:

JDM this JDM that. Don't care who makes them. It is just plain tacky for daily driving use. But for the track its fine because there are worse things on the track (function over form). But lets not bring down the Z's value by driving around town with those. Keep those on civics and corollas! Sorry, don't mind me, just had to get it off my chest.

how about powdercoating them ??...costs more but durable and will match the green'ness

I personally wouldn't go for the green rims, but I'd love to see them on someone else's car and I think they'd look crazy as hell, which is what they're supposed to do. You want people to remember your car and stuff if you're tracking it, esp. if there's an opportunity for sponsorship, so the green will do that. I just know if I were driving it much, I'd feel out of place in it. But saying someone's opinion is wrong when it comes to wheel color isn't cool at all. If they're suggesting you stick babies on spikes then you can say their opinion is wrong, wheel color is a matter of taste.

Also, forum rules on here make it clear to be as constructive as possible, it's okay not to like something, but to imply someone is stupid because they do isn't cool.

Bronze or Gold MESH design is me all day.

Just FYI the Takata Green is not an available color from Volk anymore. It was a limited time color and unless you know someone privately selling them you won't be able to get them anymore. They are not available for special order at all. This may help you to make a decision. :)

I think it looks good, anything goes with black. The hard part will be adding to the car with green rims

tbonesteak 08-21-2009 01:37 AM

if the car was modded a bit more instead of just the wheels, takata green is HAWWWT. You just gotta be able to pull it off.
