Got My Rims Today!

[blageo23]

I know man!!! I hear it calling me from the street. But we gotta take things slow. When i sell that piece of shit in the backround i will probably put the extra money(if there is any) into either a new top or coilovers.

The Spyder is looking good! Keep it up. I agree with ya that a black top would look better, but the tan isn't too bad.

I'd say paint the calipers black. It would give it a better look. I did on my Stealth and they look a lot better. See:

You have chrome rims though. Not black.

Those are some really nice rims. To make them look better you should paint the calipers black. If someone says painting calipers are ricey, at least it'll save you money and it'll look better.

Ok, I'll bite. How the f#*& does that save you money?

Nice wheels btw. Rather than painting the calipers, you should get bigger ones. [/b][/quote]

I think I agree with you on that. Yah in the future I will get bigger brakes but until then why not go with a cheap solution??

I painted mine, the only reason i painted mine is because they were ugly looking and rusty.. this will protect them a little bit longer and hide them better since i painted them black..

Either way... get off the arguing part.. if you don't have anything nice to suggest plz don't!!

unless you're open tracking dont bother with bigger brakes. contrary to popular belief, bigger brakes will not drastically improve your stopping distance, they will however assist in heat handling/dissipation if you're road racing. if you just want better stopping and pedal feel get stainless brake lines and porterfield R4-E pads (or R4-S if you don't want to eat up rotors)
