FINALLY! Black Wheels!

Hey!..I finally got my Black WS6 wheels! I have had them for a few weeks but the weather has been so nasty I havent gotten to take any pictures! Anyway! Here they are! Please tell me what you think. You may notice I have a v6 rear bumper (pic before the new wheels:Here (http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/2/web/434000-434999/434118_6_full.jpg) also since then I have added Black Pontiac Fill Ins) Anyway I switched to a v6 rear bumper without the exhaust outlet slots, because I have a bullet muffler and turn down before the rear axle and I just though it looked tacky with the TA bumper.

There is something different about this set of wheels! Can anyone guess what?

Thanks
Nathan

Wheels look good man.

Thanks Neil I appreciate it!

I just don't like black wheels. They kinda look like spares.

Well to each his own..i appreciate your reply though!


Anyone see anything off about the wheels!? Anyone anyone!?

:)

are the front rims smaller than the rears?

HA! :) yeah....you got it! I kept my 16X8's up front and have WS6 17X9s in the back. I just liked that idea..and you really cant tell they are different styles of wheels...the look is consistant I think.

Just for the obvious reasons I wanted more tire out back and smaller ones in the front. In the back i have 284/40 Nittos and in the front i have 225/50 cheapo Nittos.
I guess my wheel set up is a downgraded Corvette style :)

makes me wish I would have gotten black wheels

where u get the blackouts for the corners and the fog lights i cant find em anywhere

Nice look! I like the look of the black with polished lip.

Those look good - I was guessing the fronts were smaller - you can tell it pretty good in this (http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/2/web/434000-434999/434118_9_full.jpg) pic.

I like the black wheels - it looks great man.

dalton and his black wheels, **sigh**

they look good :)

Thanks for everyone's replies! I appreciate your comments!

And if any one can tell. The back WS6 wheels are professionally painted (Discount Tire screwed my original paint job, and sent them off to be professionally redone) and my front wheels are all painted by me. Can anyone tell a difference? I think they look just as good as the professional ones. Not perfect of course, but i am proud of them! :) The greatest difference is how clean the shop machined the lip....if you could see up close on the front wheels, the lip varies a bit.

CrAkD X 95TA - I got black outs for the fog lights and corners from Year One (yearone.com or nextgenparts.com ) I used tint paint for the rear signals and 3rd brake light. And I got the tail light black outs from a Cz28 member...they are AVS brand though.

THanks
Nathan

They look nice but they look too small, especially the fronts. I would go 17 all around. Just my opinion though :)

I like em alot, very original

i love them! i love black rims...
i got them on my ride too =)
i just dont have any new pics :(

Your car looks real good-good decision with the black rims

Looks sweet man nice job. The rim size difference doesnt stand out all that much I guess. IT looks good though. I like the Idea of switching to the Formula bumper to blend it with out tips. Nice touch.

Do you have any sound clips of your exhaust possibly?


Later,

i dont like the way the formula bumper looks on a TA, but i guess it would look worse not having tips showing with a TA bumper...

Hmm... I think I see something different about the centercaps. Looks good too ;)

Very nice man, I really like that. She's one of the few birds I've seen that I like black rims on. ;)

Your car looks GREAT! I love the wheels. makes the car stand out even more then it already does!
