Red/Black Wheels?

[PJJP]

Since NineBall set a new precedent with his white wheels, I am thinking of going with these wheels on my red vert. Wanted to see what you guys think? Am I totally crazy?

i think it looks GREAT!

 

[costanZo]

eh... not my style; but to each his own...

I'm more of a chrome type of guy

 

[PJJP]

It would be a bold move, but I am leaning that way. If not, I will just go with the polished lip.

 

[Speedy G]

i have the same wheels and was thinking of either black or copper lips, i like the red, not sure of the copper, the chrome has been bugging me since it is the only chrome on the car.

 

[Eldon]

I'm impressed. I recently saw a similiar Blk/red wheel in one of
my car mags and was thinking they would look good on my red
roadster. After seeing your posting, I now know they would look
great on my car too!

Does anyone know the weight on those wheels? I have a black coupe that those would look great on. I have always liked the painted wheel look. In college I had a Mustang vert that was black w/ stack wheels that I painted lazer red. Looks sinister!!!

 

[dave6666]

My first choice is chrome. But with the other black areas on the car like the rear diffuser, exhaust tip surrounds, top (when up), accent the black wheels well.

Final vote... Go for it!

 

[Kenneth Krieger]

Bold, but not my style.......hey, it's your car, if you like em.......go for it!

Personally I think it looks awesome (TODAY). I have had similar thoughts of going that route in wheel choice. My major concern is how it will look in a few years. 4k-5k is a lot to pay for something to possibly go out of style in a short time.

To import for me.........

I have a friend with a black supra that did the same look,,,,,,just not for me.

i went with the more traditional look.

Except I went with chrome lip and low gloss center

On red vert that looks awesome.

 

[Austin]

I like it. Would love to see this done to an SSG SRT.

 

[wormdoggy]

LOve them!! Go for it.............!!

Fast1, I think they told me they were 24lb front 26lb rear.

 

[PJJP]

If I decide I hate the red, then I can have them switch them out to polished later for for about $1000. I think I will like the red though. It is really growing on me.

 

[ulllose]

i did see this and i thought this looked good.

Not my style, but I do think they would be easier to keep clean. I say do it if its what you want.

 

[jdavis]

Definitely makes a statement! I like the black center but I'm not sure I wouldn't tire of the red rim. If it appeals to you, go for it. If you get tired of the look, you can always spend the $1k and change them to the polished rim. Personally, I prefer the contrast of the rims Ullose is going with but, that's just my opinion. And...we all know what "they" say about opinions.

 

[Nine Ball]

Get the entire wheel black, but put a red pin stripe on the lip. That would be subtle, look killer, and won't go out of style. I dig the body matched lips, but I see them as a trend for the next 1-2 yrs tops. A simple pinstripe will be timeless since it is a throwback to the redline tires of the 60's

 

[Dawg2Snake]

The black/red rims are HOT! and relatively unique. Go for it!

 

[mike & juli]

Wow, looks VERY UNIQUE, and that's a nice bold statement...personally, I'd go for all black...but with your red vert, I think it would look FANtastic!!! That BLUE one looks awesome too. Votes are in...go for it!!! ~juli
*****PICS when you have them, please!*****

 

[viperfuntime]

Oh my god. How weird! I just ordered those last week and my inspiration was that same picture from the Forgeline website. I actually ordered the IFORGED Monacos which look almost identical to that Forgeline. I ordered them with black faces and red powdercoated outer lips. Can't wait to get them in!

19 x 11 fronts and 20 x 13 rears.

 

[fastmd]

Those are not IForgery's, they are 360 forged wheels.

 

[jonjennings]

Looks really good to me....Does the red match the Viper red??

[ulllose]

Those are not IForgery's, they are 360 forged wheels.

he is talking about the original post of the forgeline wheels on the viper not the 360 forged on the Z

 

[PJJP]

yes, same red as car.

 

[viperfuntime]

he is talking about the original post of the forgeline wheels on the viper not the 360 forged on the Z

You nailed it!

 

[ulllose]

You nailed it!

Sundevil---what made you go with the 19X11 fronts? I ask that because I ordered the forgeline in 19X10 (stock width ) and now i see alot of people running the 11 inch rim.
(I know plenty of people were running the 11 when i ordered but)
I'm thinking maybe i should have went with the 11 inch rim to have more of a lip, maybe not. That seems to be the only reason i would have went wider. I'm still waiting on FED EX to deliver my rims so i actually have never seen the rim i ordered in person so it maybe just perfect

That SRT looks great. Love the color combo
