Which Wheels

[FantomForceCustoms02]

Well I'm looking for new wheels. I want 19s because I want big rims, I'm sick of the 17s I have now. They look too small on my car. I'd like you guys to help me on what looks best. I like the dark on dark look but I also like the silver wheels against the dark blue paint.

Black wheels (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/R2-Sport-19-Wheels-DTR-4-Rims-Honda-Acura-VW-Scion_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43959QQitemZ80169 07650QQrdZ1)

I know these won't fit, but I like this style
Silver Wheels (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/19-NISSAN-350Z-WHEELS-19X8-5-19x10-RIMS-FIT-G35-LEXUS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43957QQitemZ80177 65697QQrdZ1)

I haven't found any chrome wheels that I like yet so I'm open to suggestions.
Also if anyone wants to photoshop a set on my car I can get a pic up.

[PlainOldOlds]

I voted Chrome, which fits my White Ho' --- but you didn't include
pics of yours in the thread, if it's black, maybe black would fit too.
Hard to say which wheels fit your ride, unless you post current pics.

[|Rev|]

normally I would say black, because I love dark rims.. but on a blue car, in that style of rim, silver looks the best..

[eag182]

I said black...but i didn't see your car was blue....oh well I'll stay with black

[FantomForceCustoms02]

Here's one pic.

[kwhauck]

chrome or black, the silver wouldn't stand out enough IMHO.....

[b-spot]

In my city, black is getting SOOO common. Now its reverse, you need silver to stand out. lol

[pawzbear]

silver.. black is.. i dunno, kinda silly sometimes... especially on a car that color. i like gunmetalish/chrome lip on some cars.. not black tho =/
i like silver. i am getting silver rims one day =/ and it would look nice with that color, is it metallic? if its any bit like mine it would really bring out the metallic in the paint too.
wow im really tired...sorry if i said something that made no sense...

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

those Z rims will fit in the back....just not the front. I think they are hot too. :pimp:

[johny_boy32]

Silver is the only way to go. Chrome is played out. Black would be a nice second choice.

[jackal2000]

i think black would look dope. you have black headlights, tinted windows and it looks like tinted tails too, the black wheels would compliment nicely.

[Naich]

Chrome.. Always chrome.

Thats what I was thnking. And then with the chrome lip it will stand out a lot. If I were to get black rims I am going to chrome the caliper as well. So it stands out behind the black wheel.

[PlainOldOlds]

Seeing the car, black w/ chrome on the caliper sounds like a plan. Although I do think wheels with a lot of chrome would look good with that paint too.

[PrImEtImE]

I say go with the black rims!

[DRA-GON]

Yeah I went with the black to, car is sweet either way though

[bnight04]

I would go with black man. That chrome caliper and black wheel set up is the poop.

[pawzbear]

chromed calipers? hot damn i have never heard of that..
sounds freakin SWEET to me.

[FantomForceCustoms02]

Here's an older jetta. It looked really good when it was moving.
Bling Bling.

:iagree:
EDIT: i just looked at the poll results. there is a reason chrome is winning, it's because it is way better than silver or black or gunmetal or any other color.

i said that as well

[Str33tRacer]

Ill say that if the car is blue, WHITE rims look good, red, or blue or even yellow cars with white coated rims look nice, but at night, Chrome looks so badass flying down the freeway

[Lovestheh20]

chrome fits the alero so right. its got sport, but also some class

[Redog]

I'd say go with the black, since the silver ones you posted up won't fit an Alero.

10 in the rear and 8.5 in the front. The 10's might fit but the 8.5 def won't

I would also not recommend 19" wheels on an ALero either, plus they are hard to get tires for, if you do get them, watch the potholes

Chrome is cool, but are very heavy

[|Rev|]

every one and their mom has chrome rims... and chrome and blue don't look that great together, black or silver is the best with blue.. if you had a black car, then you can get chrome...

And the reason everyone is voting for chrome is becuase it's the most popular... iether way you go you never have "unique" the only unique rim really these days are golds, and odd bronze colors, theres a lot of them out there, but not as much as other colors....

get silver....

Yea I knew the silver ones wouldn't fit. I just like that style. I did find silver ones similar to those that would fit but I lost the link to them.
I want the 19s cause the 17s I have now look too small with the kit, and a lot of people have 18s, and 20s are really pushing it. So 19s seem to be the only size left. You also get a few extra points at shows for wheels 18"+.

you're nuts.....

chrome

[Str33tRacer]

Depends on the the car, 17s look fine on a 2 door 4 doors should go with 18s cuz 17s look too cheap

[Redog]

I have 17" silver on my car.

I had the 16" polished stock rims but bent one. I bought the 17's on tirerack.com. I didn't wanna go with 18's because I felt they were too lagre of a wheel and wouldn't leave much of a sidewall, which I need. I bent my 16's on a pothole.

I also when with silver because the weight difference was a big deal. Since I race my car, I wanted lighter or the same weight rim. Kinda hard to run on the track with rims that are 20 lbs heavier than stock, the 17's I have are 18 lbs a piece.

So it's not the size or to look soooo cool, it's about making he right choice for what you want to do.

Back in my street racing days, I loved to little Civics with 18" chrome wheels. Not even racing them and still pulling away, while thier engine is revving above redline :emotlol:

[SouthDakotAlero]

Black and Silver only catch the attention of car modders.

Chrome gets everybody's attention.

haha you know we NEVER got along with choice of rims, I remember how much you said you hated my 2nd pair.. oh wait, you hated my 1st as well lol :lol:

but really.. he is wrong, get silver :thumb:

[FantomForceCustoms02]

Well as nice as chrome and silver are, I've decided to go with the second most popular choice of black wheels. I'll probably buy them within the next 2 weeks. Chrome is a little too flashy for my taste. And I already have a set of silver unless someone buys them. So I'm gonna get the black wheels with the chrome lip and have my calipers powdercoated aluminum. When its polished it looks almost identical to chrome. And its cheaper. And if I get sick of the black, I'll have the wheels powdercoated blue to match the car. Thanks for the input it helped a lot.

[sound_xtreme]

....

[Str33tRacer]

What about Polished aluminum? Since its such a debate you can have the look of chrome and the weight of silver its all about what you want to do WITH your car

[natedawg9640]

i don't think anyone can ever go wrong with chrome... it stands out... never goes out of style... and goes with every color... i hate color matched rims except for black on black... powder coat white looks nice with blue and red... and silver isn't far off a combo of both white and chrome so i pisked silver... plus the old GSX had silver ones and it was blue... and it looked sharp.

[alero35b]

black rims would give the car a more sporty look

[alero35b]

[attachmentid=9283]
they are only 16" but should give you an idea of how black rims look on an Alero..my car deff needs lowered

[firstson]

Hey 36b...is your alero that stock tan color. i would have liked black rims but i'm not sure how'd they'd look if i got em and didn't change the color of my car.

[alero35b]

it's the darker of the two tan colors they have. but it is stock paint besides the side moldings i painted black.

[derek_ski99]

black wheels look good on black cars, red cars and silver. any other color...NO trust me. Also, with a 4 door your much better off going with silver or chrome. Just my opinion

and to whoever said only the street scene people notice the black wheels...nah you're way off. I get more attention (not meant to be racist because it isnt) from african american people. They dig the color match look like all the rappers are doing.
