First of all......hi! Long time since posting anything serious here. Still have the car and Ive been collecting some parts to do a make over soon. Mainly a new sail panel, will take all emblems away and will keep the wheels but Im thinking of going with a matte bronze color, lip included. Anyone here with dark bronze wheels? Ive been looking around but not many examples are available. I did a quick and dirty photoshop of my general idea:
Not the best photoshop but will serve as a basic guideline. I want a similar color to this:
In my case, I was thinking of having them repainted a matte silver. Never really cared for the look on a white car. I didn't want black and I didn't want chrome, this is where I ended up. They were darker in person than they looked online. I do like them, just that the dark color has not exactly grown on me (had them since 2015). The wheels themselves are great, very nice design and they weigh 8 pounds less EACH than the 18" factory alloy wheels they replaced. Putting them back on each Spring feels like I just added 10-15 HP to the car.
I love the rims. What are they, where I can get them. Weight?
Thank you, they’re 18x9.5 and 18x11 Fikse FM5’s. You can contact fikse directly or check out the marketplace on here. A set pops up for sale from time to time. I haven’t weighed them but I can assure you they’re light. It’s a 3 piece forged aluminum wheel.
