Before: Stock GSX Wheels Now: 19x8.5 HP Racing Wheels

well, here they are. i definetly think they need to be powder coated black on the insides. if this is hyper black then i need like hyper midnight black. they certainly aren't dark enough on the inside. the chrome lip is like 3" wide and really makes everything seem too light.

oh keep in mind that the car hasn't left the garage and its been up in the air for awhile and the suspension hasn't sat down completely.

what do you think?

I have seen those rims before and I really like the style of them. I am usually just a brand name man, but really think these rims set off a car nicely. Do you happen to know the weight of the rims? Would rather know the weight of the 18"s so yeahh.

What is the car lowered with? It looks really good in the first pic with the stock rims. Cant wait to see a pic of it outside with the new rims on. Do you still have the same lowering stuff on it?
 
the wheels with tires weigh about 40 pounds a piece.

i use eibach sportlines. the suspension isn't seated down. the car has been in the air for about a month and i haven't driven on it... so.. im sure the car will sit down just a bit when i roll out the driveway.

im going to try and get it out of the garage soon.

btw.. this is a GS, not a GSX.
 
Nice Rims...Humm cant remember where i have seen thoughs rims before.... :confused: Oh thats right I have the same ones....HAHA looks real good though man I love mine..and also just got sponsored for some new rubber as well... :thumb:
