What color is that? Are those the stock tires? Something is making the wheels look huge . Also, are you using spacers?
the tires are 245s up front and 275s in the rear (T-1R's)....i have 15mm spacers in the rear and none up front, and i used the gunmetal duplicolor wheel coating to paint them
^^^ I really like the cleanliness of your car. How's the handling with the 275's? They are 40's in height, right?
the handling is amazing! and i actually hook up now haha...but yea i cant remember what the height is (im deployed right now and cant really go look) haha
so when you use this wheel paint do you have to sand/prime??? You just tape off the tire section?
there are directions right on the back of the can for what sand paper to buy and everything...i just taped off my tires...but i would recomend taking the tires off for the best look...
but there is no prime ...just the clear at the end
Here are my POLISHED Z wheels on my M35 (NOT CHROME) with PS2's. They are 4 rears. I had to basically buy a staggered set of 4, sell the fronts and then find another two rear wheels. I have been thinking about selling them because I want to buy some Works...

The wheels are perfectly safe, they are guaranteed to be race track safe. The shop that mounted my tires was skeptical of the outcome but were blown away when they threw just the wheel on the mounting machine and saw that the wheels were perfect, not a single counter weight needed, same thing when they put the tires on. The cost, if i remember correctly was .5"-2.0" wider was 200 per wheel, and 2.5" and up was 225 per. I'm happy with how they turned out, and will be doing the same to my 19's
Thanks! Upkeep is a little hard because one rain fall makes them spotty. BUT, the great thing with this polishing job is there is no clear coat. I can hit the wheels with metal polish and buff out any spots or minor scratches!!!
I have the 03 track wheels I've gone through this thread and there is no real definitive answer, what spacers are best to sit flush? I have 275 in the rear and 245 in the front.
how low are you sitting.. the best would be 20mm (f) + 25mm (r) if you are not dropped too low... that's the setting you want with a 1.0" + 1.2" drop at most, so that you dont rub.
. Also, are you using spacers?
