Default color of wheels suggestions..!

so yea i have an 07 lemans sunset -love the color- and it has the factory 18' chrome wheels.. looks awsome but im thinking of getting new wheels for it and trying to sell these.. im def considering volk wheels but dont know which color..haha? so if anybody has any color scheme ideas or suggestions or even pics and other wheels that they would recommend, cuz volks are expensive, i would appreciate the help.... oh yea and what is the name of the wheel thats on the infiniti..its hard to describe but its the wheel that looks like the factory VW GLI wheel.?

did they offer lemans sunset for 07? I thought solar orange replaced it, I could be wrong.

I hope you don't really have the 'chrome' oem wheels, they are issue prone.

I am putting on my bronze rota grids today after work, they are a knock off from one of volks' design, bronze looks great on lemans sunset .. I'll post pictures of it in the shared media section tomorrow, check it out if you want an idea of how it would look. I got mine with new falken fk452's mounted and balanced and shipped for 1730$ from wheeldude.com, a vendor on this forum. that's about half the cost of volks without tires. just not rich enough to spend that kinda money on wheels! you could luck out and find a used set, but those still fetch in the middle 2k usually.

oem g35 wheels are made by rays engineering, I don't know if they have a specific name for it, just do a search for 'oem g35 wheels'

yea i was going for the bronze look even tho a lot of ppl have doubts i still tell them it would look sick...but if i can get a knock off on a brand that resembles those g35 dep dish wheels i'll stick with polished silver or whatever they are... and yes lemans sunset was made but very rare in 07 as far as i no...

that's solar orange bud. you are the ugly sibling to lemans sunset.

either way, check for my photos in the media share section tomorrow. it won't look exactly the same on your setup, but it will look close enough
