well im looking to upgrade my wheels, after finding a buyer for the b spec rims i now need to find some other rims to buy, im looking at these in a 20" wheel, the ones im looking at are silver but id like to have them powdercoated black..

again this isnt my car and my car isnt this low.. but just to get the idea

so what are your thoughts?

I actually think that design suits the sedan rather well... Only thing is, that sort of design is fairly common these days. In the words of Pete "As common as arse holes" :lol:

Also, why are you looking at 20's? Why not a nice set of 18's or 19's?

The car you used in the photo looks familar

what out for the potholes

well i have 18 spec rims now, but i want to move up, if i can find black rims, that are solid black, no chrome rim or anything id be happy with 19s, but if i am staying silver then i want 20ies (thats my weird reasoning for ya)

these wheels have popped up and may be available for me to purchase coming off a wrx and 20" big, but as you say they are about as comin as a cheeseburger hence changing them to black would set them off as a bit different.

These wheels are becoming more common because there are quite a few company copying the design and selling them for cheap. However, if you can get them 2nd hand for cheap, I say go for it. Otherwise if buying brand new I would consider other options. Either way they still catch the eye due to the spinning spokes and the large wheel size (but you gotta get the car lowered as well otherwise it looks silly).

I'm currently waiting for the charcoal grey ones (no polished lip or centre) to show up at my place. Hopefully they'll look alright.
