Clean up the whips & took some pics...

We were bored and I got a new Canon S400 so I thought we'd take some pics over by my house. The Z is fast(but not as fast as me) and the Cavvy is just another friends in the car club. We have about 15 other nice cars(most of which are FAST). Cardomain is good for a host but unfortunately ****s with the image size which degrades picture quality

no it's not, it's kind of an orangeish metalic color. it's pretty cool but definitely not stock.

Your 240 and that 300 are nice, but I have never liked any cavalier. Took that thing out, and those pics would be nice.

Yeah the wing is outrageous but it is an authentic Veilside of Japan wing. Very expensive, but you know how Veilside is, they gotta be crazy and flashy.

I'm glad you guys like my Z....i'm plannin on removing that wing, just for a week to see how it looks like without a wing and the kit. Who knows i might like it like that. I'm not usually a fan of big wings and what not....but that wing flows with the kit i guess you can say. But i do appreciate the compliments.

Actually I think the Z's wheels look really hot. The best of the bunch. They have a nice dish to the face and a unique spoke design.

Its actually a house but i seriously appreciate all these compliments....like i said i'm usually not a fan of big wings, but this one is unique in its own way. One its Authentic Veilside, and two, no one really has that wing on a Z. But its coming off on sunday. But again...we all appreciate the compliments. (luckily the owner of the cavy isnt on this site

OH and the rims are for sale if someone is interested.

ROFLMAO! Funniest statement I have read in a long time

The sides and rear is Erebuni but they seemed to fit the body lines nicely without being too loud.

Ok I need some opinions. I was going to get some 18x10s in the rear and 18x9s for the front but after further discussion everyone seems to be telling me it is going to be a bad idea. So, I've now stepped to 18x8s or 18x8.5s with a +35 offset. So that should still give me a descent dish that I'm looking for even though I want like a 3 inch lip. So, here is my question, should I go with a standard Silver wheel for my car, or go with the Gunmetal look. I like gunmetal on almost every car better but am having second thoughts with my color. I don't know how well it would look. I need to hear some opinions now.

i'd go with the silver wheels. you're right, gunmetal wouldn't look right with your color. i would go with gunmetal if the car's color was slightly boring like black, white, or red. but since your car's color is unique it draws enough attention on its own.
