Just got my car, and really like the stock rims. Considering possibly buying aftermarket, but not really sure. I went through the stock rim thread, but they did not really have many of the Touring+ rims that were modified.

Any ideas about what I should/could do to them?

I was thinking maybe going with black, but not sure how that would look with the blue. Bronze? I really like the guy that did his rims black, and left the lip silver.

 

Just give them to me, anything less would be uncivilized MF'r.

 

They will be in the mail this afternoon.

 

good man!

There is a stock rim modification thread, let me see if I can find it for you bud.

 

Can't seem to find it!

I'll keep looking...

 

Man what a pain in the ***, finally found it:

Look through this and get some ideas...is your car SMB?

 

Buy new aftermarket wheels.. Keep stock wheels as a back up, thats what i did... Usually all Aftermarket wheels tend to bend easily from my past expericences 5 sets off rims bent so far living in NYC.. I could never bend nor destory an OEM wheel go figure!!!

 

Yea, I looked through some pages of that thread. Its mostly the other stock rims, not many of mine.

And yes, SMB.

 

Now that you say that, I would prob lean more away from getting ones that will bend easily. Streets in New Orleans are terrible.

 

SMB is sort of a hard color to to pair with color schemes IMO. The mag blue color looks pretty good on them.

Yeah well this is my main reason i went with the 18/19 OEM Nismo Wheels.
If the roads are as bad as NYC i would suggest looking into something like this. Ive had Volks as well The Strongest wheels known to man and they bent like puddy as well. Thousands off dollars down the drain...
I dont know if you like the 18/19 Grand Touring or Nismo Wheels but would suggest you look at them.. I've hit countless potholes and craters in NYC with these rims and not a single vibration nor bent rims.

 

i hit a pothole here in the city and cracked an oem wheel. So it can happen to any wheel just have to hit it right.

 

WOw you must have been dead on with that hit...

 

yeah it wasnt a bad crack just on the inside lip of it. Oh yeah it was one hell of a hole. I called the city to see if they would cover it and they laughed at me didnt even ask where the hole was to fill it in. I hate this state.
