Here are a few different black on black setups I have run in my days...

Enkei basketweaves... 15"



Konig Traffix... 17"



I also had another set of wheels similar to the Enkeis but in 16"

But these are my current wheels... Regamaster EVO 17x9 (all 4 )

I was supposed to go out and get some today, my buddy wanted some for his site with the evo's on, so we took that last night in a parking garage.... i dont have them on the front right now... waitin on my bn fenders . They stick out an 1.25" from the stock fender in the front. I have those 16" black with polished lip 2piece in the front for now.

Yes they are black.

Haha, never really realized how many different rims I've had... (also have s5 5spoke rims painted black, s4 t2 rims painted black, and i used to run FD rims 2 years ago. those however, were the only rims that werent black.)

Yes Rishie it is... it looks a lil goofy in that second pic... (its spraypainted ) gettin the whole car repainted when the fenders/skirts come in... so some angles you can really tell...

Ohh and sorry i couldnt get those 4 lug Gram Lights the kid is a retard and doesnt want anything without a deep dish... but i dont know how hes gonna get that without gettin anything over 8"... know of anything off the top of your head for a 240sx (4lug) 16" gunmetal with a decent (2"+) dish? Cuz i sure as hell don't...

Nice wheels...InitialD FC, you have one of the best sigs that I've seen in a LONG time. Most people swear they're drifters...when in fact they're just people who lose control in a corner .

Man InitialD FC, your car is frickin' awesome. If I didn't have a 10th AE, I'd probably black out my car just like yours. I've always loved the look of a blacked out car.

Yes, it's very nice to see that kit on a car. I will be contacting Chuck as we would like to promote it mated with a balance of a kit from another company.

I'll think about that, but he'll need to get a GP kit with 20mm fenders up front. Does he have a 13 or 14? I just checked out GP's S13 kit, it's sick as hell.

I'll link you to it. But he'll need those fenders, small *** brakes so we can run a low pad and get max outer rim lippage. He'll need a +30 offset on a 8".

Very nice on the front kit. Spray paint is cool. lol.

Oh how was the quality and fit of the kit. You can PM me if you want.

Thanks, Rishie

You know Chuck is making the RE FC front right now? Should be done within a month i believe... He already is quoting $650 for the bumper w/o lights, $1000 bumper w/ lights, and $1500 bumper w/ HID lights. That is not bad at all...

I dont know if he will be copyin the side skirts later or what because the only reasonable priced side skirts are the corksport border copies... They are pretty nice.

Yes it is the S13, I'll let him know about the fenders and such... he seems to think he can run enough neg. camber to tuck in a 8" rim with 2" lip... i dont think thats such a good idea.

The front was kinda a pain to fit... it was from that first batch that came out wrong... He never made the second batch that fit right. I have seen his 3rd gen copies though and the quality is excellant, i have no doubts about the quality of the RE copy soon to be released.

I should have the whole car painted soon with the rest of the exterior pieces on soon, ill be sure to get new pics, thanks!
