Finally got what I wanted

Featured Replies

Yep, finally got me some GC RS wheels for my little imp. Can't wait till it warms up so I can paint them black.

Uck....really? Take those beautiful rims and paint them black so they look like cheap Les Shchwab stealies from anything more than 10 feet away?

 

Black rims make a car look dirty.

 

Just my opinion.

 

You have a knack for making nice cars when it's all said an done so please don't listen to me.....but black? Uck......:confused:

Black makes it look much better. I painted these ones too.

I wanted a set of those RS 5 spokes bad when I had my 2000 RS coupe. Looks good, I know you've had that wagon a long time.

I finally REALLY got something I've wanted. It's had a ll sorts of wheels, but I've been after a hatch with spoilers for the whole time I've had it. :banana:

Rustoleum metallic my man. Soon as it's any kind of warm enough for paint to stick.

like those wheels, and the impreza wagon with rear mid wing. black would look awesomer witha thin red line along the outer lip, kinda like hotwheels redlines :)

Red? Not in my neighborhood, you trying to get me shot? :confused:

 

 

 

The old wheels were sold to pay for the new ones.

Black wheels FTL IMO, but whatever floats your boat. I think black spokes w/silver or polished lip would look good on that.

Nice find on the rear spoiler! Don't see many of those.

^^ You're a BSG fan? I don't understand FTL. It stands for Faster than Light (Drive) as far as I know.

 

Cars look great with black wheels. Couldn't care less if you think "for the loss" even though that doesn't really make sense either, though I've seen plenty of folks post it about stuff. Loss/lose to what? What do you mean? What/who wins, your opinion? The opinions stated in polls you've seen posted? I don't get it.

But you say if I polish the lips it'll be ok with you? Lemme know if you change your mind.

where did you get the spoilers i've been looking since i got my imp but i have yet to find any

 

Found and OBS being parted out. The price was right, couldn't not buy it. Merry Xmas to me.

Last to first. not exactly stealth yet cool. That Impreza and those wheels were a perfect match. They just Are no matter how U paint them. It is all delectible and tastey to be snatched away. the whole package. Beaut machine yet the <other> has no reguard, has no respect. :slobber::slobber::slobber::slobber::slobber::eek:

Looks good man! I like the spoilers :) I have always wanted an imp like yours, I just think they are sweet cars. But my arse is to broke to be able to afford one, so I just stick with the leggys :lol:

 

Wheels paint black correctly and on the right car look sick. Black wheels don't fit every car, but when they do fit, it looks fantastic. I have a feeling Zap's will probably look fantastic when he's done with it ;)

The silver is starting to grow on me, but shows brake dust too much. They'll get painted. Here's an example of a hot looking gc with black rs wheels.
