You can't go wrong. Look sexy either way. Very good choice on wheels.

don't get me wrong though, the graphite color looks/would look amazing as well, but i think i like the current look a tad more.


just curious, do you know how much bigger the lip is on the evos compared to the RPM 505's? it looks a lot deeper
I dont know about the RPMs but these have a 3.5" of lip...maybe a little bit more.

Thanks for the input!

YES for the graphite color, and get a blackbird stripe to match it, as well as the CETA bumper of you haven't already. It looks great now, but its just a sea of silver and needs a color for contrast. This would be perfect.

You already know what I think. The Black bird stripe is an awesome idea!

I think you should go graphite, but instead of doing matching blackbird stripes to tie them in, you should just take off some of the "brightwork". i.e. stainless hood inserts.


:edit: paint your plastic valence black too. that thing sticks out horribly.

my vote would be to keep it the same. although the graphite does look good too, I'd save the money for something else. I like the current finish to match the color of the car better. if it were me to consider changing wheel color, I'd consider black lol

I'm leaving it alone for now. I happen to be a bit tired of the look the car currently have. However,, almost all of the people who see it in person just love how it looks and tell me to leave it alone.

Don't you guys ever get bored with your ride? I have even considered selling it, just out of boredom! Crazy, huh?

I know what you mean but the appearance of your car is just pretty much damn perfect IMO. Still mod it but do more luxury mods where it will still intrigue you again, like say push button start, back up camera, navi, etc.

Bored with appearance or performance?

Performance...yes lol..Appearance...eventually

Car looks great as it sits, I wouldn't touch the wheels.
