i hate the double lip. bremmers look better.

the double lip is what i like most. its a little different. and with the black color of the wheels it might be neccesary to break them up and make them stick out some more.
the bremmers look great to i was originally looking at those.. but silver got them and i dont want to pull up to a meet with another silver car wearing the same wheels. you know..

im open to suggestions if you want to pitch me a similar style wheel. what ever i end up with will be going on most likely next spring. so i have plenty of time to consider different options.
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

what does everyone else think?
 


Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

sorry my headlights are currently being hacked up on a nightly basis. i believe the first set is good.

if your looking for pics of black housings, just keep looking. i know Boostjunkie has some in his, try searching his name. Good luck
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

i like those rims, my next set is going to be like those but not in black. the double lip looks good on those because the silver is behind the black. as long as its not the style that makes the lip stick out past the tire, i hate that.

hows the retrofit going?
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

yeah i wont be stretching the tire. and yes the silver behind the black is why im liking these so much.

well the retro.. yeah..made a little progress so far.. then i ****ed up a shroud lol.
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

Why weren't the new rims on when you were here this past weekend?
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

i havent bought them yet bill. but im fairly certain that i will.
 


Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

i think im gunna go with bimmers if they are still around when i have the cash.
 
Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

that silver lip behind the spokes WILL make the wheels look smaller.
 


Re: SilvaMan's attention whore thread.. help me pick wheels

those are nice. atleast odi will approve.

the silver will look amazing on the black.

alright im coming around to see your point. how small do you think theyd look? i personally dont mind the look of 17s. but if theyd look like 16s i wont touch them.

does anyone else have opinions? or other rims to look into? i want 18s with close to a 35mm offset. 245/45/18 tires. TIA guys
 
Re: The Silva bullet... suspension refresh, parts list

so the rides getting rough and i know a few suspension parts are wearing out. im compiling a list of parts to get. i figure if its getting done i should just upgrade. heres the short list so far..

slp sways
solid lower engine mount ( should i go with poly? is it worth the $$?)
solid trans mount
poly upper motor mounts
vinnies spacers
agx struts ( may cheap out and go with gr2s)
strut mounts ( any recomended brands?)

and i already have eibach springs waiting to go in

im going to try and get a good look under the car and see if anything else needs replacing. you guys know of other parts thatll be dead at ~ 95k miles

thans guys and as always im open to comments and critisisms.
