Can someone Photoshop a set of RonJon Inspyre IIs

http://www.ronjonwheels.com/inspyretypeii.html

...onto a Crystal Black Pearl or Graphite Luster Metallic RLX?

....still thinking...and almost there....

Just want to see whether it works.

Later when I get out of school...

SLAMMED RLX

They kinda look like IROC rims, what color is your car?

neuronbob

Thanks Timmy, you are the man.

Don't have an RLX yet. Just seeing if they work with the RLX's look, which it's hard to do without a pic. If it doesn't work, it doesn't. Never heard the Inspyres described that way before.

It'll work. A slight drop will set it off.

In for chops!

It might look better with the inserts in.

neuronbob

That would work better with the inserts in.

what happens to the tpms and the sound deadening without OEM wheels?

neuronbob

RonJon wheels accept TPMS, so no issue there.
Aftermarket wheels don't have the Helmholtz resonators, so you lose whatever benefit that gives you.

This setup definitely requires the inserts and a 20" size.

Sorry it took so long just to get these lousy edits up.

neuronbob

^^^^^
Very nice! Thanks! Those are well-proportioned. Definitely not lousy in the least.

Can we have a look with the inserts in?

wow, killer site. I found these Savini's that really look good on the RLX. Especially on the white one. Sets it off reeeeally nicely.

Might have to possibly consider these....the rest are way toooo busy.

the ronjon inspire wheels that where photoshopped on to the RLX can be optioned with solid inserts, instead of a blank slot.

Inserts were a good idea, still may happen but I'm waiting on high speed test results. I need to make sure they will not fly off the car if they are not engineered properly.

neuronbob

Thanks for stopping in, Ron. Are those the 20" Inspyre IIs or is that RLX dropped a little? Also, a side shot?

That RLX is not dropped, but this one is slightly, and the wheels are 20" proportionally:

holografique

now THAT looks proper. can you do that same photo Ron without the slight drop? I'm really starting to like the look of the Inspyre II's on the RLX. I've got a black Advanced and really liking what im seeing here.

thanks!

holografique

damn man, now im totally hooked on those Inspyres, that pic with the 20" with Black just looks amazing. Sporty but still keeps the classy elegance of the RLX.

sold!

neuronbob

I like the look, too. I think it works.

Best part is that there are PEPP refunds available for vehicles like the RLX that we need pics of. Call in or email for more info.

Updating this thread now that I am an owner (well, actually, lessee).

In addition, winter is now halfway over, so thinking about modifications for when it stops snowing.

Even though I am leasing this car, I am thinking about changing the wheels. Operative word here is "thinking". I throw in that caveat because the stock wheels have, surprisingly, grown on me. Wheels will really be the only mod I pursue, other than possibly tinting the windows.

Thinking about the Inspyre IIs again.

Another option is the Ace Couture in matte black with machined lip. I love five-spoke wheels in general, and this one also has a nice concave dip to it. They make it in an appropriate offset for the RLX:

AceAlloyWheel.com-Stagger, BMW Rims,custom wheels,chrome wheels,alloy wheels,car wheels,Luxury wheels,aftermarket wheels, Toyota Wheel,large rims, Black Wheel, Hyper Silver Wheels, Nissan Wheel, Honda Wheel



I'm probably going to stick with stock 19" size just to make things easier, and because with the already firm ride 20's would be simply too much. No plans to lower this car.

I will admit that the stock wheels have grown on me.

Has anyone else swapped their wheels out other than SLAMMED RLX?

neuronbob

Vossen CV5 is on the list now, too. Wondering if a 9" wheel will fit the RLX.

Looking to mod the grille, too. NOT the E&G grilles, though.




Vossen Wheels

Basically, this is the look I'm going for. THIS is what I want my RLX to look like at the end of the day. I will PAY someone to help me mod my grille like this pic....

About to pull the trigger on a set of Vossen CV5 in 20 x 9 with 35 mm offset. Planning on Conti Extremecontact DWS in 245/35/20. I'll give it a go and if the ride suffers too much, back to stock for me!

We'll see....
