Which GTR wheels look better?

[RIPnFX]

be different. Go GTR premium in gunmetal. A bunch of people are running GTR 20's now…. Time for a new thing

+1 I agree

With the rest of the exterior being factory I like either of the light colored GTR wheel options. Depending on any future changes to your exterior it could have me voting for either GTR wheel in all black. I have the same paint color and if I go with dark wheels without changing anything else I think I would prefer the addition of a bright feature on them. Most likely a polished lip but I have seen some mild spoke treatments I like as well.

Contrast is good, the second image is tight.

That does look nice, though I doubt they can do it with powder coat....

Most companies use a process called eco chrome which looks like chrome/black chrome but it is acheived by a process similar to powdercoating

Or PVD Chrome.

Yes PVD is what I was thinking of

Have you tried photoshopping the GT-R Black Edition wheels that are metallic black with silver lip? Perhaps color match the lip to KAD?

Of course I'm biased - the Black Edition wheels are the lightest weight factory wheels and I have two sets for my GT-R.

True...though my car's gunmetal already...I guess I'd have to go with a darker gunmetal..

Its one thing to see different wheels in photoshop but another thing in person. I just wish I had access to both and see which one would look best...

Thanks! If only the CBA's were 21"... but then there's only four tire options at that point according to tirerack.com :P

That's true, there's a lot of chrome on the car, I'm planning on doing blacked out headlights, grill, and most of the chrome on the car either going to body color or black. Also looking to get a skirt package either OEM or a bigger body kit like the one in my avatar.

What if I did cabernet satin red rims? For those that have light colored FX's its easier to put on darker colored rims, but having a dark colored car, you have very little contrast to play with before the rims are not visible (as it happens with most things being close to black).

Or I can do a two tone having the rims dark gunmetal with red on the inside of the rim or a lighter color...

Something of the sort...

I was looking at those rims and even though they are lightweight, somehow I can't see them on an FX it being more curvy than a GTR. I'll give it a shot and see how it looks photoshop'd.
