You don’t have to. Fikse Wheels can be ordered in five different finishes: TechniPolish, Full Polish, Race Satin, Race Black, and Speed Silver (so you probably won’t get the last one)

I think Full Polish would be the way to go with your car.

Check it out: [http://www.fikse.com/finishes.html](http://www.fikse.com/finishes.html)

No, and I’m too lazy to buy a scanner. Stop by the house you lazy bastid. Or if you know of some specific JDM, I can look in the index and see if I can find it.

of the two options i really like the SSR’s…

but i’m more than anything a fan of the Nismo’s you often see on 350’s in catalogs and what not…or the Nismo lookalike cheepos, the Kazera KZ-A’s (i think they’re the KZ-A’s…)

Yeah the chop I posted of the 57pros isn’t exactly to scale :ham:

The thing about those wheels Rick is that they have sharp edges (to the spokes, etc.) which IMO would look better on a car with sharper edges. I like them, just not on my car.

The goal is that when someone looks at the car, they look at the whole car and not focus on the wheels. The SSRs would detract from the style of the car, and the 5Zigens would too but to a lesser extent IMO.

tirerack would never let me go wider than 9.5" with 275’s in the rear…but i’ve seen many times 10" back wheels with 285’s…

good choice though, and as ricey as it may seem, i think it was a good move to go with the 18" wheels…17’s are plenty big enough on many cars, but for some reason i just dont like the way they look on Z32’s…18" is a must…

now those idiots you see all over cardomain with 19’s and 20’s on z’s…those people i hate…
