Saturday, the GCs and Tokico Illums will be installed on the CL, dropping her about 2".
I have from now until then to decide on which rims to go with. Most likely, I'll run 225/45/17s because 18s are too rough for my taste.

Attached are the two rims I've narrowed down to. Which ones do you guys like?

***Forgive me in advance 732xghost, but I had to borrow your photo since your ride is lowered.***

Choice #1


Choice #2

I know...crappy photochop skills.

At this point, Im leaning more toward Choice #1 because I've always liked the "mesh" look and it also resembles the rims on my garage queen.

 

I like choice #1.

 

i like the first set too and is that a fx45 cuz its super sex.....

 

wow, 2 votes already for the first set...

Bliss, you know your cars...thanks for not asking if it's a FX35.
Yep, she's my garage queen dropped 1.25" and rolls on 22s".

 

nvm, choice 1 ftw. but if you can get the ones on your infiniti, then get those

 

number 1...cuz 2 is ugly

 

1

 

#1

 

meh i like 2 but i have always liked that style

 

1 for sure.


I like your garage queen...its not your daily though? Thats the perfect daily!

 

I'm also buying mesh wheels for my CL, so I choose #1. Are those the Sport Max 006's or ASA AR1's? I really want the AR1's, but they are nearly impossible to get in the 4X114 lug pattern. The Sport Max's look good too, but they seem to only come in black, which doesn't look all that good.

 

#1 for sure. #2 makes it look likes its tryin too hard to be pimp imo

 

i had meshies on my CL too.



pay no attention to the girl.. its my ex.... lol

 

^^ What wheels are those? They sort of look like AR1's, but I've never seen them in gold. That was a pretty nice set-up.

wanted a fx45 long time ago but dont got bank for that hopin u get #1

 

Thanks everyone for your input...I ended up getting a set of 18" ADR mesh.

Spent the entire day installed the CGs, Tokico Illums, and rims.

Just a quick teaser until I can take better ones with my Nikon.

Whatcha think?

 

lookin good all ready, further on your set up then i am.... got rims but need adapter.... but glad to see you caught the mod bug, just guess it hit you harder then me.

 

Lookin' good! I forget, do u have a 3.0 or a 2.2? Is the suspension setup the GC sleeve coilovers or just springs?

 

damn, looking good, nice whip.

 

nice, need better pics

 

From what I can tell, those look really nice. Great ride height too. When you get time, can you post up a 3/4 view? Also, is that a +40 or +42 offset?

 

dammnn that looks good! i think i might take off my mud flaps when summer rolls around to see what it looks like

 

oh by the way whats the drop?

 

Thanks everyone for the comments. I'm happy with the look and will roll my DD with pride.

My current setup consist of Tokico Illuminas and GC sleeve coilovers with custom spring rates. The front is 450lbs and set to 2 on the shocks while being dropped 2.5". The rear is 280lbs and set to 3 while being dropped 2.25". It's slightly lower than I want, so I'll end up raising it 1/4 all around.

Overall, the ride is really nice, firmer than stock and the handling is much more predictable. I'll take better photos this week when it stops raining.

 

What is this nonsense?!?

Looks great man.

 

Go with your first choice, either way you win. But for me it's #2, reason is i have 07 TL/S with stock mesh/fishnet type wheels. With the big brakes, Dust is a problem, for cleaning the open spoke will work better. I will change my wheels soon.

 

very nice choice, looks good.

 

i dont like either. look into getting Buddy Club P1 Racing SF's. very clean and affordable.

 

Edit: should be in black market section
