Question 08 Black Z: GT-S or Phantom Rims

I have narrowed it down to 2 rims that I like the best. I have a 08 350z Touring all black. I can't decide between the GT-S (All black with Chrom lip) or the Phantom's. I am asking anybody out there that has an ALL BLACK 350z with each of those rims to post there pictures.

If your car is not all black and does not have one of the sets of the rims I am talking about... PLEASE DON'T POST YOUR IMAGES! because it won't help me. Thank you.

Here are the 2 rims I am talking about...

[######### GT-S Black w/ Chrom LIp ##########]






and the phantom...
[######### PHANTOM ##########]




Alright, post them pics! Thank you!

I say phantoms only if you add a color stripe on the lip, if not, its going to look like your wheels are small.

Why does everyone say chrome..IT'S POLISHED NOT CHROME ISN'T IT??

BTW, polished lip is played out so much. Definitely go with the matte black!

I'd rather have a chrome lip over polished. The chrome is much easier to maintain and offers a similar look with a little more "pop".

Go with matte black. There aren't that many cars with that lip, but make sure you like it before you buy it. It doesn't matter what we say. Just be happy with yo rims foo

What happens if 5 members say GT-S and 5 say Phantom? Then you are back to where you started.

Consider that you can get different combinations of the Phantom. The Mercury Silver/Phantom is a sick combo.
