I have a silver FD with gunmetal FN01R-C rims. There 17in. i think its time to get somthing new, but don't know what. i cant find anything i like that goes with silver. i want to find somthing with a pretty aggresive dish. right now im running 17x9 +38 front and rear and i was thinking about going to a 18in rim.

i like the SSR Professor Sp1's or WORK Meister S1 2P but don't think i want a polished lip with black. im not scared to send them to the paint shop. what do you guys think would be a good color combo for a silver FD?

my car

 

looks good

 

if you got the cash, i'd definately get the works over the ssr's! think the polish lip would be nice on a silver car

 

Personally, I think the Works will look best on your car. With the same colour scheme.

$0.02

 

mabey a gunmetal lip with black spokes might look good. im not really a fan of the polished lip.

 

nice clean 7....

 

If you got the cash, work wheels USA can make the meisters to pretty much any size, offset you want. They will even paint it the finish you want. You can work directly with Work wheels if you don't want to go through the dealers in your area/nation.

Here is what i like on a Silver FD. Aggressive sizes and a nice style makes the difference in a street car.

Work Meister S1 3 piece.
Work VS-KF in Burning Black.
Work Emotion XD9
Fikse Profil 10.
Fikse Profil 5.
CCW Classics.
BBS LM-R.

I am sure i can think of more later.

 

Maybe it is just me, but I think your car looks great as is.

 

thats what people have been telling me. that i should just leave it like it is. but im bord with the look of it already. mabey i should change the color of the car. idk. Thanks for your help tho guys.

 

Big lips, custom colors, custom fitments: http://www.jlinewheels.com/models.html

 

Give the SSR VF1 a look at, something a bit different then the Professor and meisters everyone has...

I personally think that the 5zigen FN01RCs are the most overplayed, hideous "track" wheel.

Any wheel with better sizes, offsets, and style will look better.

Maybe i am an idiot, and stupid.

 

well, stupid people along with idiots are able to have there own opinion. i think their played out and its time for a change.

 

They are definitely over-played, but so are the ccw classics (especially in the mkiv community) and work meisters that you previously listed. Although, they both do look better than the 5zigen's. Just for the money, the 5zigen's are not that bad of a wheel. Would I run them? Definitely not.

 

Nice rims.

 

I think proper fitment, and aggressive sizes can make even the most overplayed wheel look great. Problem is all the conservative sizes on all the wheels have been beaten to death it's tough to look good (and most of the time it's really no performance gain either). And everyone goes for the boy racer time attack look on a street car that it just looks ugly (and has no style).

But most mark 4 supras seem to come with instructions when you buy them: RMM Wing, WW Lip, CCWs in gay sizes and ultra conservative ride height (mile high) = teh win.

 

+1 here!

 

hmm didnt know that 9 wides came with concave look.

 

LOL. I spend A LOT of time on the supraforums and you couldn't be more correct. They have like a 20 page thread just with mkiv's and ccw classics.

 

Thats freakin sick. Go for it

 

i think he's running the 17x10 +35 up front

 

yeah, there 17x10 +35 up front. also, did i tell you im beginning to hate silver cars.....

 

sorry. They are 10 wide all around. (typo)

 

Looks good

 

I got connections for the majority of your authentic Japanese wheels not to mention fitments.

SSR has a limited discount, but their retail pricing is quite good.

AME is another company you might look into if you want something with Massive lip in mid to high offsets.

Work of course needs no explanation. I like the meister more than the sp1, has a more robust spoke.
