Default Need your opinion on new wheels

Thanks to a couple of members I have found the wheel style I will be putting on my F, and I have ordered them in Gunmetal, but I sure like the look of the Blue Light Chrome version on this 370Z, which are 18's. The Wheels are Weds Sport SA-67R, 19X9, and 19X10 and I will be installing them on a Mercury Metallic F. Interested in reading your opinions.

Thanks,

Gary

Thanks for your opinions, I'm going in on Wednesday to have samples put up against the car and take some pics. I think I can make a better decision after then. My wheels are not supposed to be in until the 15th.

Gary.... I'm a big fan of the Matte Gunmetal !!!

I left chrome forever once I sold my Mustang over 10 years ago.. I never looked back..


I also saw Darshana's white IS-F yesterday after work and they looked amazing in person.. (exact below F)

I know what you mean Joe, I put chrome on my 07 C6, and swore I would not do it again. I will share the pics of the car with the two wheels next to it Wednesday. As I mentioned I still have a few days left, but most likely will be going with the Gunmetal.

I think your original choice of gunmetal is the best one, it'll look great on MM

"incredible stud" funny post, I hope you don't mind my using your car. It is beautiful, and when I get my wheels on we need to meet for some pics.
