My Silver Sport GT arrives in 2 days!

In anticipation I was playing with photoshop to see how aftermarket rims would look like on it. I got kinda lazy when doing the rear wheels so the rear discs look bad.

The wheels are Nakayama Vador 5's, before and after pics are included.

Please don't do it!

Good job! I like the dark rims. I've been wondering what the Winning blue HB would look like with powder coated blue rims.

The wheels look dirty

Hmm... I think they're too dark.

 

[dugrant153]

go for gunmetal grey. Those do look a little too black.
lighten up the shade a bit and I think they'll look solid

I actually agree w/ dinu for once! Don't do it.

Looks cool man. Nice Photoshop job too. It caught my eye because my roommate drives a Honda Element with the same Vador 5s. Check it out:

Not sure I'd put any aftermarket rims on right away. The stock 17"s are sweet. But hey, I guess I have to buy my 3 first!

Finally! 8)

ok, seeing them on an element ruined it for the 3...

those wheels dont really match imo...nice color but the style doesnt match..

Take some time before replacing the stock rims. On the pics, I find the rims too dark.

P.S. The rims are ugly too...

 

[neoriffic]

I'm not sure what's uglier in that pic, the element or the rims...

Most of the time I think factory rims are crap, but the 17's on the 3 look pretty good IMHO.

Meh, polished aluminum would be better in my book.
