Default Opinions wanted on aftermarket wheels

I have a Silverstone Touring 6MT with Aero on order. I found these and thought that maybe the dark wheel and the silver lip contrast could add to the silverstone color and make it stand out a bit more, but not sure. Or do you think the wheel design is too jagged for the smooth sloping lines of the Z? any oppinions? Anyone seen another wheel similar to this color scheme thats nice?

Thanks!

These are the wheels I'm considering they're SSRs, I've posted this under a wheel/tire thread on the mods forum. I've been partial to split 5-spokes since I saw momo arrows awhile back. Could someone throw them on the black Z with photoshop if you have the time?

Yes. My opinion is there's too much crap on that wheel. Looks very ricey. Just a personal opinion. Being honest.

I agree that the color scheme of the wheel would work well with the Silverstone but I hope you have an extra toothbrush and a few extra hours every week to spend cleaning out the allen heads on those bolts! Looks like they would be very time consuming.

I think these O.Z. wheels would be nice on the Z:



But I really like the six-spoke wheels that come on the Performance, so I'm sticking with that (for now).

Me too...that's why I upgraded to Performance model...I like the stock rims a lot..also it is a perfect fit.

I had bad experience with aftermarket rims. Bought a set of Racing Hart for my 2000 Accord, it vibrates around 70mph. Balanced about 3 times already, but same problem.

They are a very classy aftermarket wheel, a bit pricey but worth every penny.
