I am having a hell of a time deciding between 16" polished or 17" gun metal spoon knock offs (the 17's wouldn't be rota obviously). I would like to see a picture of the polished slipstreams on a car, if anyone has one.

 

so would I!!!

 

got the polished wheels of slipstreams but no tire yet...i think they should look good...so if anyone got them pls let me know coz i want to see them on the car before buying the tires

 

Take those things outside and take a picture w/ no flash, I want to see them!

 

 

 

here are some fakies i just painted...sorry for the bad quality pic... they look better in person not on car yet either sorry

HEY! I helped!

BTW they do look great in person. No tires yet, so no "on car" pics.
Bling the slips huh!

what's wrong with a cheap, lightweight set of rims? i had the JDM ITR 16's on it before but sold those to put the extra money i spent on the JDM's back towards a clutch/fw/fd, which is more important right now. I know if for some reason i hit a curb, i'd much rather hit a $100 rim instead of a $200 rim.

btw, i've never seen GM slips with a polished lip, i think it looks really nice

 

If you hit a curb just hope its the rim that only gets messed up.

Why does everyone have to spend $2000 on wheels in order to have a nice car? Those wheels look sick on that JDM front teg IMO. So why not spend all that money on something else like performance?

You are right, the car does LOOK very good. I just don't see reasons for spending so much money on a front end conversion and putting all of that car on 400 dollar rims....come on.

It's EXACTLY like all the kids around town that roll around with SLAMMED cars on cheap coilovers and stock shocks.
True, it may look good...but is it really all about looks???

You can find some wheels for much less than 2G's, just have to shop around.

 

polished lip bad idea.
