I bought these wheels to keep me satisfied until I can afford to order some baller lxz's 


Specs are:

Weds Kranze (model unknown)

20 x9 offsets to weak to mention...
20x10 offsets to weak to mention...

tires i'm considering are 225-35 and 245-35

The wheels are currently painted silver, i will be breaking them down here in the next couple days and getting them refinished. I may go back with the silver, but not sure. If i can find someone to do like "burning black" or "black chrome" that would be dope.

Looks nice and the fitment should be pretty much good to go.

Looks like a perfect fit!

wheels look great!

those are sick

awesome!

wheels look great!  good choice.

would have never thought that wheel would look that good on a y50.
 
don't hold out on the specs. if i had an m i would want to know what those were cause that's some great fitment. numbers are for nerds.

Looks sick. Throw some tires on those bad boys and your good to go.

i missed the refinishing part.
 
matte black centers and color matched lips would be illl on that car.

i actually thought about going that route...i can't picture it though. if you can photo chop it, that would be cool


Thanks for all the comments!!

quick and sloppy but you get the idea:

looks like someone stole your tires and left your car on bricks

hahahah

yea, i'm not feeling the white/black....I have decided on what i am going to do though....

i talked to my polisher, he is going to do the lips full polished.... i am having him just dip the faces in acid bath (striip them) them i am goin to have them clear coated, that should give a machined type look.  IF that doesn't turn out, i am just going to go back with silver

black face & white lips would look sick.


Car looks good though, can't wait till you get some tires on it.

 the strip alone won't give you a machined look (really nothing but machining will) but you can hit it with sandpaper/scotchbrite for a nice brushed look. machined is called machined because it is machined, i.e. small tight lines engraved in the face. brushed can be similar depending on how you go about it.
 
on a mesh wheel with such thin spokes it's really splitting hairs anyway.

"brushed" lip.

i agree.. i'm generally opposed to pandas but mostly because of how it's done over here,  i.e. cheap black housing lights, spray painted tails, cheap black wheels, carbon fiber/painted/overlayed hoods/roofs/trunks. usually not a fan at all, however with the new japanese vip builds going the way they are i've seen some well executed black/white themed cars. example:

with a sportier car like the y50, and since the op's already has a 2 tone look goin on, seemed like a logical choice to me.

car looks great with the wheel!

that is gona look real sick!!!

what kit is that on the GS?

i always have  a tuff time deciding....i think i may go with the "brushed" look on the face. the white/black combo is starting to grow on my though...

werd what is that????

Oh, man.  That would look so nassstyyyyyy  :drool:

Regardless, the wheels look great for your car.

Damn!  Fitment looks like its gonna be nice.  

Why spend more cash on these wheels if you want LXZ though?

those are going to look awesome on your car ... Btw awesome choice in white too IMO


man o man where did everyone goto wed 03 book of rims ? haha I am bias but damn Airmax was NOt kidding ahaha

glad to see everyone like wed mesh ... 

I believe you have the Wed Kranze ER-M look at the siggy

i was thinking, what about white face w/gloss black lips? thoughts?

personally i like the lip/body to be the same color cause when the stance is right it ties it together but it's personal preferance i suppose. as long as you're workin with a theme and everything flows, anything goes.
 
[IMG]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a130/VIPq45/GSO%2010-12-08/12.jpg[/IMG]

i tend to agree on the gloss lips, unless everything is right on point you tend to lose what is going on between the lip, tyre and shade of the guard area..

Nice chice in wheels I too like the black face with color matched lips but machined and polished wont be bad either...hurry up and get tires so we can see what they really look like then take it from there

IMHO .. its looks perfect in silver .. thats just me

Leave them the way they are. Black or white lips don't look good. Black lips make your tires look like they have huge sidewalls and white lips make it look like they're made out of plastic.

ok, so i ordered my tires.... Nankang Ns II 225-35 and 245-35

as far as the wheels go, i am just gonna clean them up and run them as they are. they are not near perfect but they will do until i can afford the get them re done.

sounds like a plan... i would even say save the money you would spend on refinishing towards what you really want. didn't catch that they weren't what you really wanted.

[QUOTE=-Campos-;249313]i was thinking, what about white face w/gloss black lips? thoughts?[/QUOTE]

if you plan on getting different wheels later on down the road... keep them silver/polished. it will be easier to sell.

Still ugly imo.  Please don't do that to your car.

I'm so not a fan of colored lips! Wheels look amazing as is...

I like color matched wheel lips. They'll be alot harder to sell later.
It's actually becoming alot more popular in Japan as well.
If you plan on keeping them for a while do what you want with them. If you have Wheel ADD like most of us leave them as is.

pure JDM style. Im sure it will catch on as everything else does.

i love the black lip white center for my 2 cents...

 They got the colored lips from the americans.  It has been popular in the dub world for a while.

Pics of them mounted??? Love the ER-Ms......

Wheel ADD!
Lmfao! 
That's too funny, I'm stealing that right there son. :)

I've always been a fan of big phat chrome/polished lips. But after going on some of these websites and playing with barrel, lip, and face colors...it's growing on me.

With that said, I still stick to the more common stuff like white face chrome lip, black face chrome lip etc.

I've seen some cars with 3pc wheels with each piece  painted seperate colors, just cause they can. It's all good, but I've always been a "less is more" kinda guy.

I'm actually a fan of how they are now...but I guess in this life stlye stock is for suckas ;)

I'm starting to really like these M chassis...every time I see one out driving I'm usually breaking my neck to check it out.

White lips look fine if the car is done right; [IMG]http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs040.snc3/12740_206540749127_679794127_4168554_7537674_n.jpg[/IMG]

I agree with jay j. besides you can always put the VSC logo or Club Name on the lip like:
