red 350z roadster black or chrome rims?
Just got a new 05 candy apple red 350z roadster and i love it!! It came with some black 18" american racing or something like that rims. They are all right but I'm definately looking for a upgrade and update.... I kinda like the black rims with the red car look but I like the chrome look too.
Right now I'm thinking the Avant Garde # AVG-M341 black rims with red caliper covers.
What rims would you put on a candy apple red roadster??

Chrome wheels and painted base calipers are frowned upon.

Red Z's look hot with black rims - especially with dark tinted windows.

No Chrome! American Racing wheels? What a downgrade from the OEM wheels given. Find yourself a nice set of used volks, I believe there are a few black sets out there.

At least your wheels are tuner style and not Dub style.
Not bad at all!!
