http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

Just won these, and i own Black s14 w/r33 nismo front bumper.

NOt a fan of white wheels, but damn they are nice. They would look really nice gold with polished lip though, but its your wheels.

Damn Mike! $850 Shipped is a hell of a deal on those. Not a fan of the white... Get em powercoated any of those colors you're thinking of, that would be my top choices in order. Those should fit perfect with some rolled fenders and whatever camber, hope you have Camber Plates and RUCA's. Although I dont think those tires will fit as they dont look undersized for the wheels.

Just FYI on how flush there gonna be, take a look at these, very simular size.

http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=54934

EDIT: Actually, as far as color. Definitly do something darker. Glossy Black Powdercoat with the polished lip and black car it would be badass.

unless you're sure you can get a nice gold, i'd go gunmetal/polished lip. even a junk job looks pretty good...lol

Whoa. Great deal.

The white wouldn't look too bad on a white car.

But for that great of a deal, I wouldn't care if they were neon green.
