Got New Wheels!

[MAT00]

Hey all! I just bought these.....I thought they would look ok but now that they are on the car, i F*kn love them, especially going from the stockies. Pics dont do them too much justice...will get better ones as soon as the next sunny day rocks up here in tassie....could be a wile

[Edit]: Btw they are 17x8s on the front and 17x9s on the rear. Thinking about painting my calipers. What colour should i go??? The norm red or should i go white or something??

nice mate much better than the stockies

[bluey33]

Very nice!!

I love em.

I reckon go red/blue on calipers if you want em to stand out but I would go black with 'nissan' white.

The black will just make them look clean where as I don't reckon stock brakes are big enough to be bright.

[DLOOOK]

Red calipers would look good, or also gold

[NA_Goodness]

They look really good! ood choice.

AS for calipers, I'd go red or gold personally. What other colours are you using in the car?

[n15m0]

much better than the stockies thats for sure..one thing I dislike about black wheels is that they seldom come out nice in photos. Get a set of blue rays duralumin nuts for a bit of contrast!

I love black rims, almost all of my cars have had black rims.... and they look great...

a good early morning or late afternoon photography session will really bring them up lookin good... try a shot from down low, really makes the rims the focus of the shot... with the sun behind you...

I'm not a fan of the blue or red nuts though, all black I'd even be tempted to paint the centre cap...

then some black racing graphics......... yeah I know...

[Yo-Yo]

red or gold will give you that 'brembo' look

I only went red with mine because gold wasn't available at the time lol

nice car

[N1GTR]

Get some big brakes behind them and then they're perfect

[Bakes]

Looks Tuff. Gold calipers!!

[WET-25T]

+1 for black callipers with white nissan logo.

Nice wheels too btw, if i had a white skyline i would have gone black with silver dish.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Looks tuff man!

[MAT00]

Thanks for the replies!!! Hmm, yeah, i wouldnt go gold calipers simply coz itd look like i was trying to look like brembos. Red mayb, but yeah, black with white nissan would prob look sexy!!! Ill get some pics up tonight of sunset and see how we go!! WET-25T, i was thinking about it, but originally, i was just gunna get these rims as "In between" wheels (i got them for $600 second hand off a mate), but i dont know now, i think ill keep them on there for good. Also, i was contemplating pilishing the outer edge of these ones, but thought that it'd prob look gay and make the rims look smaller, as they are only 17"s. Any other suggestions on calipers??? Leaning towards black with white nissan atm....

[typevu]

NO dont go red... every boy racer seems to paint it red lol black calipers with red nissan lettering would be nicer or black with white lettering like you mentioned

[MAT00]

lol true!!!! I painted my calipers red on my old integra......I thought i was cool.....lol.

[GankNZ]

if your after a clean simple look you could try out silver with a black nissan logo? gives it that brand new kinda look..

[Ronin 09]

silver calipers are hot

[MAT00]

Might be an idea......dunno on how it would look on the white tho...?

[MAT00]

anyone want to try photoshopping one of the pics above for differant coloured calipers?????? Please...?
