i like 'em! personally, unless you really, really like a type of wheel--as in you saw it and liked it w/o knowing the brand or how many others have it--my advice is you should get it. the new phantom wheels are cool, too. but they seem "faddish" to me. changing where the wheel is painted doesn't make it THAT much different. just enough to say, you're still "in" but are not a "follower" cause you got the latest type of "--insert brand here--". in the end...they're still "--insert brand here--" wheels!

first they were making "polished lip" wheels with black centers...oooh....and now, they're making black lips with polished centers...oooh...what's next? polka-dots! oooh!

all-in-all, if you really like 'em get 'em. the price is cool. ive seen cheaper and ive seen much more expensive. the offsets ARE NICE. don't let fender-rolling stop you. let us know if you get 'em and post it when/if you do?

If your car is carbon silver, then yes. I though your car was silver alloy. But then again, I saw it at night.

Neos car is carbon silver.

What year is your car Mizzle? Because they made Carbon Silver for 07+ and up. For the earlier years it was silverstone.

Phantom Silver is sick. Nice thing about black lips > easy mainteinance. They don't get scratch easily when you clean them,

Good luck!

Those are sick, sick, sick wheels. Since they're a two-piece wheel you can always get the barrel coated whatever you want.

Just make sure you get the correct offsets.

Yeah I figured if I get tired of the polished lip I could PC the barrel and put a GM time attack on it. offsets are 17/18 heres the link https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-tire...t1r-tires.html

Rob, I never thought you were serious about selling the wheels! I just notice this post a bit too late.
