that looks nuts...i love it!Bat smoked too!
Dave i think you should powdercoat your rims if your going to keep the stock 20's...it will give you some extra flavor while still keeping your sleeper look.

You were 1/2 sec faster on 19's? Why the difference?
Crazy!
Oh, those smoked OEM Wheels are sick! I want them!

I am really loving this look. I have not been this excited about my FX since I got the new color on it.
This is something that I will need to get done. It will be the Alter Ego on my Stealth FX...
Just another thing I have to put on my list. This is why I love this car. So many things to do to give it a whole different twist and no matter what you do, it still keeps it's lines..

Bigger & Heavier wheels take more power to rotate. Simple physics.
Not sure if that will apply yo you, cuz you got fat rubber profiles, so that makes up for the total diameter. That.s why G's & Z's see bigger numbers on the dyno. 20's alone probably eat 15 hp to the wheel alone, in comparison.
Never seen so many exited 'bout stockers. Group buy at the powdercoat shop?

I think the look can only be pulled off if the color and finish of the powder coating or paint job is perfectly flawless or else it will not look like the pictures. I agree the PS pictures look really good but having seen black oem wheels in person I have yet to see any I like.
On a side not, I just got done putting on my nismo track wheels. Dam I hate doing changing out wheels its just a PITA!

Man do I feel like an idiot! I guess I thought that most of us would buy some kind of forged wheel so the weight difference would be minimal. For some reason I had '35-50 series rubber' in my head and that's why it would make a difference. DUHHHHH

Actually, the black grill looks horrible w/ the mustache. I played with that in P-Shop, then went back to chrome. Why dont you just paint the grill & lose the wind thing?

I'm sooooooo tempted to do this... I have my stocks just laying around anyway... But the Dr. said he hasn't seen painted wheels that looked good (in person, not PS)
