What Wheels would look good on my GREEN car?

[S14DB]

I'm looking at getting FN01RC's for my car. I can't decide on the color for them. Matte Black or Titanium Bronze seem to be the finalists with Black w/silver lip in 3rd place.

Falken Hanabi is also a choice:

Thoughts?

[kandyflip445]

I would go with the Brushed Aluminum or the Matte Black. I think the Bronze look better on the maroon s13's (like mine, lol).

I actually don't like the look of the black with polised lip. The lip seems to fat compared to the rest of the rim and it just doesn't look right to me when it is on a car. Off of a car it looks very nice. Just my opinion.

Hanabi's I don't like at all.

So. MATTE BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Why are you not making your own decision....lol

[S14DB]

I liked the Bronze till I saw this Z with Matte black:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/S14DB/240sx/Wheels/GreenZblackrims.jpg

So, I like both. But, I don't have to look at my car while driving...

[A Spec Products]

Hyper Black or Matte Black.

If I had to be decisive, I'd do Hyper Black.

Reason being is I would rather have the wheels stand out from the car visually, that's my $.02.

[StudentDrifter]

I like Titanium Bronze

[TAMTANIUM]

If your car is a lighter green than that Z green...then get Bronze! it will look very nice

[Sky240PWR]

either the tit bronze or the gold ( i would pick gold with a green car)

[Revolver Ocelot]

Yea:
Light color= Bronze
Dark color= Black

[S14DB]

Here's my car when I first bought it:

I really don't like silver and yes I have coilovers now....

[Revolver Ocelot]

Dam either black or bronze would look good with that color. I would lean more towards bronze, but that is a personnel preference.

[TurDz]

Bronze to attract good attention...black to look like a ricer/racer. ;)

[ALTRNTV]

Bronze.

Here's my old s13 with bronze rims. Almost the same green as your car, only darker.

[driftracer]

MY personal preference for that color car would be Matte Black. Good luck making your decision :)

[Johny5]

brushed silver or gold hands down. since you seem to be a bit on the subtle side, brushed silver. you can never, ever, ever go wrong with brushed aluminum.

[S14DB]

I don't like the silver with the green now. The contrast is to great. Sticks out.

id go with the black if you don't like silver, bronze will just look weird on that green...also your antenna is weaksauce

[upSLIDEdown]

Personally, I was going to go with gold on my green S13 fastback, but my green is darker than that. I agree, I don't think gold or bronze will look right on that tone of green. I good friend of mine has an S14 zenki that's green. He's rocking Burning Black Works. I know you said you don't like silver also. So go with hyperblack. I think that would look the best on that color. I've never been a huge fan of the matte black myself. I think black wheels look best on black cars. It's your car though, you do what you like.

[wootwoot]

I like either flat black or gold. Gold is just pimp and works good with dark colors

[chmercer]

silver. done.

[S14DB]

...also your antenna is weaksauce
Doesn't mater cause it an't on the car no more...and that's not the subject :mephfawk:

there was more to my post about the subject, that was just some added criticisim :kiss:

[SimpleS14]

I decided to go with Matte Black because I didn't want my car to stand out too much...

[Zen S14]

I think black or bronze with polished lip looks good with the color.

[infinitexsound]

green and bronze or gold... never liked black wheels...

[Flipzide]

i would go with the gold or bronze.. for some reason they look really good on green 240s..ive seen em around and i like it.

only reason i wouldnt get black is because its more common than bronze....well in my area lol

[originalsin]

bronze fn's

[Drunk Bastard]

who gives a fuck what we think. it's your car

[Siizzzoooo]

damn, since when did they have the FNs in Gold?

The Best advice anyone could ever give. :rawk:

[Irving18m]

My beat down 240! Wahoo cheapy Konig Monsoons!

[aznpoopy]

any kind of black is definitely a 'safer' choice.

bronze on green is the car equivelant of a fashion risk. some people will think it's hot, some will think its ass.

personally i think bronze on blue em is fine. however, i think blue em looks like ass to begin with; so take that as you will...

[chmercer]

black isnt a safe choice. black makes your wheels look like steelies, or covered with brake dust. regardless, both options look like shit. get silver.

to reiterate, black wheels are ugly as balls.

[SRkouki]

i think black or flat black would look pretty nice.

PigNose: is that you in ur avatar bro? haha...u look funny. Rembrandt does wonders mang.

Bronze wheels look dope...imo. But, opinions are opinions. I say pick the wheels u like cuz u like them. Your car is an impression of your creativity! Why let others get in the way of your own art form...peace mangs.

the pics probably from that site on it. that cars not even green, and nice minus the lack of a grill, aero, and paint.

What about black with a chrome lip? as long as the rims are clean i dont think it would look bad.
I think gold would be hot on green.

True. I appologize for my moment of discrace. Please forgive me.



PiigNose: is that you in ur avatar bro? haha...u look funny. Rembrandt does wonders mang. Yes. I did some editing to make it a little more ackward. Dont worrie, I love brushing my teeth. Thanks for the future advice.

[kandyflip445]

Yes. I did some editing to make it a little more ackward. Dont worrie, I love brushing my teeth. Thanks for the future advice.

:bs: I think you should go with the bronze teeth. Black look wrong on you. lol


Have you made up your mind yet DB?

[S14DB]

Opinions are like Assholes, Everyone has one. This is the biggest bunch of Assholes I know. So, I'm sure to get some good ideas. I don't have to look at them when I'm rolling down the street. Other people have too.

[s13panda2004]

If you can afford it..

Go with these Work Meister S1C's

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b27/Gangsta_S14/DSCF1451.jpg

[axiomatik]

No offence to the guys who are rocking them, but flat black wheels don't look good on that color. You need to have a light-colored car for flat black. For your color, I would definitely suggest gold or hyper black.

[i8yourfwd]

HOT PINK!!! cmon it's jDm MaD TyTe Yo!

EDIT: Wow... got negative feedback for some sarcasm.. As if there wasn't any anywhere in this board..

[evilimport]

Flat black FN's own, just get 'em.




I did. ;)

[Revolver Ocelot]

By the way what offsets are you planning on running?

[S14DB]

17x9"+20 all around. 225/45 upfront, 245/40 in the rear.

[S14DB]

We are out of stock on the bronze, but we have them in stock in hyperblack,
matte black and black w/ polished lip.I guess it's matte or hyper black then.

[theicecreamdan]

the thing is, you can matte black any wheel you want, so if you get one color and decide you wanted matte black you spend 6 bucks and put some time in and ur done.

[silvias14ka24de]

Bronze.

Here's my old s13 with bronze rims. Almost the same green as your car, only darker.

http://i.onlineshowoff.com/media/photos/cars/311/o_11668.jpg


What kind of rims are those? I think i'm getting those also as a trade but my buddy doesn't know what kind.

[Jcb890]

black isnt a safe choice. black makes your wheels look like steelies, or covered with brake dust. regardless, both options look like shit. get silver.

to reiterate, black wheels are ugly as balls.

lol. this coming from the kid w/ glitter vinyl and rivets all over his car. some people dont need to have glitter all over their car and need to have their car stick out of a crowd and sometimes a nice black rim or black with a polished lip makes a car looks subtle, yet really nice.

and ps - the hanabis are fucking horrible, don't get those, they suck.

do whatever you want with your car, don't let anyone on here sway your opinion on what you want on YOUR car.

Go with Titanium bronze. It's much hotter then you think. I know I have them on my green s13. Next choice is SPL color.....haha stripped then attack with a rattle can

[SimpleS14]

How about you just wait until the bronze rims are available. :tweak:

[sw20>>s14]

id say the hyper blacks...i love 5zigens hyper black...its got the perfect amount of metal luster, or metallic glimmer...kinda looks like liquid in certain angles or lighting...the GN+s and the FNs in HB are teh sexxxXXXxxxXXX...next best thing to enkei's, SSR's, or ray's SBC...

[S14DB]

How about you just wait until the bronze rims are available. :tweak:at least 4-5 month wait. :(

i think S14DB was referring to the 4 lug 17x9+20 FN01RC in bronze.

I did a double take cause theres tons of bronze in stock, no question, but its the 5 lug stuff and regular 4 lug stuff (17x7/8, etc)
