I personally find white cars with black rims looks the best.. won't have to clean em as often.

My favourite is a glossy black mesh pattern with a deep chrome lip.

IMO .....white car with black wheels looks mad.....at night, car looks like its floating and the JDM style

But yea....white car with white wheels looks good

Personally, i think they look great! As long as theyre not overdone with ridiculous body kits and neons and

sh!t.

Heres a pic of my car with Enkei Tarmac Evos.

It only looks good if the white of the car matches the white powdercoat on the rims.

If I were to paint my Racing Harts white, it'd look just wrong on my car because it's Alabaster white.

I vote don't do it! I admit it can look good but a lot look tacky. Personally, I'm not a big fan of body kits and have minimal exterior mods which makes the rims an intergral part of the look of the car.

I like having something to offset the cars colour like with your car, Gold with a polished lip/dish always gets my head turning on R33's.

I wanted 18's on mine in this style of rim because it's wider and has more of a dish to it but I'm happy with the result

Black rims gives a hardcore Jap racer look but it makes it hard to see any detail of the rim which if your spending $ for the street isn't that great. Although painting many nissan factory rims is a very cheap, effective way of getting a menacing look.

it is an White R33 with a full Nismo 400R body kit and 18 inch Speedy cheetah Style wheels, follow the link to get an idea of what the rims look like..

Look for the rims called CHEETAH....

and also if you think it will look any good..

Don't like any of them... my two cents... you're looking at the wrong wheels! Good wheels for your car? Anything late model WORK - RAYS - or my personal favorite... SSR Professors (available in white) see attatched.

Seriously... Jap car... Jap wheels

Good luck! :thumbsup:

i think white on white looks gay, i have a white r33 and would never get white rims even if they were worth $5000 and i won them in a comp.

with that said i would go for golden/bronze it looks fully sick when car is lowerd a little and some decent tyres.

grey/black would be the next option

I reckon black. White wouldn't look to bad if they were a thinner spoke or something. I had these unique light weight jap wheels that are white. I get ppl saying they love them and others saying i should get chrome or something. I don't really want to get rid of them. I thinki want to get them powder coated

      to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?

      George's R33 GTST build

      By pogman · Posted

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.

      They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.

      I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
