Picked up antoher set of wheels

Post by Diablo0 » Mon Jun 13, 2011 1:49 am

Some of you may already know from Facebook but I picked up another set of wheels last weekend.

Another set of SSR Competitions, same size and offset as my 1st set.

Image

They're intended to make their way onto the white R/T as to have both cars match but they're in pretty bad shape with two or three being bent and all having some paint and clearcoat issues. One was repaired and it looks pretty good but the clear on the lip has started to come up on the edge so sadly it's going to have to be refinished as well. Really looking forward to getting them on once I get the $$$ and decide if I want to keep them the Anthracite color or not.

:lol: We'll see... I'm leaning heavily towards leaving them Anthracite just so all 8 will match. If one gets damaged all I'd have to do is change the tire and swap one of the others over without it having to be repainted.

Depending on the car I sometimes like gold... its a little too flashy for me so I doubt I'll go that route.

White... no. :lol: Too hard to keep clean haha

I'm leaning towards a darker gray, maybe even black.

Look at the damn tires on the black car. So new, they still have color on the tread face.


If you really can't make yourself do gold, then I would definitely go for the factory gunmetal (matching your other set) over black. Black will tend to hide the awesomeness of the wheel design, whereas gunmetal makes it pop a little more.

I'd still do a medium/dark shade of gold, with the polished lip. Man that would look amazing.
