    Exclamation Help decide on a set of rims and COLOR!

    I知 looking to possibly do something along the same lines as the rims in the pic below, the only thing is I知 not 100% sure what rims would look best on a 240sx and what color to have, and since everyone knows that I知 not shy when it comes to BRIGHT and NOTICABLE colors so..... I was thinking a hot pink (not a light color pink and not one so dark it almost looks purple) so it rly pops, these will be used as drifting rims for the most part but might use em kicking around town as well.

    TLR I知 looking for suggestions on 2/3 piece rims that I can get powder coated like this, also feel free to suggest colors (it痴 for my WHITE 240 sx, not the mazda)







    **also totally unrelated**

    I might keep the mazda, roll it flat black and use it as a winterbeater, i figure the car runs mint, if i sold it id be losing heaps of cash and i wont have a wintercar, thoughts?

    Since its a white 240, I would have to say almost any color would be good. Im feeling the bright color also. I do like that pic you posted and if you went with something similar on your 240 i think it would look great.
    I would like to see a rim with a thin multispoke design with say a gunmetal face and lambo orange lip/dish. I like the greyish/orange combo.
    Plus i always think of what it might look like in motion. A thin enough spoke would leave the rim in motion looking almost invisible and a bright orange dish against a white care... you'd see it for miles.
    I dub thee.... creamsicle.

    I think orange will be hot. Or pretty much any bright colours will go with white. Something similar to the colour of your stockers will work too.

    As for keeping the MZ3, I say keep it, although it would be a shame to be a winter beater. Your 3 is nice man.
