Thumbs up Finally decided on a wheel!!!!

I know that I have had a few posts asking peoples opinions of wheels, I showed alot of different pictures of bronze wheels but I got alot of responses urging me to look at silver wheels. I got a white 3.2 TL 96' and I just bought these G-Racing Kuma's that are a hyper dark finish and the real kick ass thing about these wheels is that they are a 48 offset As soon as I get them on my car I will post pics but here is what the 18's look like. Tell me what you think

I think those are going to look great on your car. How big is the lip on that?

I like the pattern on the spokes and the 6-spoke design..the only thing I don't like is that bulging center cap, but it's not too bad.

Post pix! Post pix! Post pix!

Those are nice, Personaly I am not a big fan of chrome. If those are a +42 offset I hope you have a 2.5 TL because if you have a 3.2 you are going to rub. I like the design of the wheel though, do they offer it in any other finish, Gun Metal, Hyper dark, Anthratic.

Another problem with Chrome is that the lug covers arenot made out of the same material and the chrome will fade on the lug cover and then you gat shinny wheels with dull covers and you can polish them back so they are shinny again but after doing that a few times the chrome plating will ware down and not look the same. There are companiey that will re chrome them but then your lug cover will look different than the wheel it self.
