I agree with ali-turko and DNGRUS, dark or white cars with bronze/black rims look awesome, very tough street/track racer look, white wheels, although very nice on dark cars, are a little more boy racer in my opinion.

Mr Kirisaki, how can you say white/chrome rim wheels look odd.....don't think so!

bad angle but you get the idea

It's because white and polish lip don't seem to go... however darker colours contrast with the lip which makes it more sharp. IMO. But any car with immense dish is awesome in any case.

sorry to hijack this thread...

got similar question but...

black cars with black wheels.

i am planning to powdercoat my wheels to black.

was wondering which one look the best.

shiny black or matt black wheels on a metallic black r34

thanks.

white is nice but sorry got no time to clean white wheels... ahahaha

go black car with matt black wheels, that would be my opinion, flat black as opposed to gloss black.

im thinking of doing the same now - going flat black on black r33 gtr, havent heard of this being done yet...im after the tough street racer look

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
