      btw what's the offset of those wheels?
      17x8 ET43, 17x9 ET40. They were originally Supra/Lexus wheels, so I will be running adapters.

      I considered it, but the goal here is classy. Not just get eprops on Vortex/WheelWhores/Stanceworks

      Yes, your car is the inspiration behind not only the color scheme, but the high offset, non-dish look.

      those wheels look more like e36 offset. are they even bmw bolt pattern? are you planning to run adapters with them?
      I've also thought about a Nogaro/darker silver center. They are 5x114.3, so I'll be running adapters.

      Only way to avoid that would have been to go E36 5 lug, then look for 5x120 RSs, etc etc.

      I'm not sure about gold centers with the Tan interior.

      Detail of the RS is lost with black. Defeats the purpose on this wheel, IMHO.

      Black polished lips? Do you mean like a "black chrome" look? But polished lips with red bolts.........that actually sounds kind of cool.

      Interesting idea!

      Nope, I like the non-dished look of high offset RSs.

                yes yes, black chrome. Never seen something like this, and on a red car i think it would look great.

                      I'm not sure what you should do with those nuts, lips and instars, but I do know that whoever painted those things turquoise likes to polish big black nuts with their lips and get their brown (in)starfish painted white.
                      paint sucks

                        Yay... like every other, other set of RS'.


                        I say option 1 with a slightly tinted silver center. Not gun metal, not Negaro...

                                no, i'm not.

                                i actually think that sticks out like a sore thumb. that car is very well done so it doesn't detract a whole lot from the overall effect, but a set of black caps would looks much better.
