Hey guys,

I'm going to get my wheels reconditioned and the guy said I could get it done another colour if I like.

They're Rays Nismo LMGT2's I believe.

Just weighing up the options, I either want it the same white colour or go matte black.

I'm not the best at photoshop but it gives you an idea:

Let me know what you think, or maybe any other possible suggestions?

Cheers,

White to give you the clean look.

Black to give you the tough look.

If you go black, just paint the spokes (how the white looks but in black)

Leave the lip polished.

Yeah I've always liked black rims on a white car.

True, like this?

I'm really liking black with the polished lip.

I think the stickers are about $4 each :woot:

The other alternative is the black LMGT 4's are a polished black, that might look okay?

definatly, LMGT4's are made for R34's :P

otherwise, go the black with polished lip

If I were buying a new set of rims I would go the Rota GTR-D's :rofl:

What I meant was the same polished black colour of the LMGT4's would maybe look alright on my LMGT2's?

I wonder how much the GTR-D's are?

Coz it's $600 all up for painting and reconditioning my ones, $150 per wheel.

Black = stealth and safe look.

Chrome or silver = a bit of bling (nothing wrong with it) and stands out more.

Other = I like gold ones too...looks tough, eg.g Volk GTC's...but pricey and you gotta have the matching bodykit to go with it...

At the end of the day, your call and you'll be driving it...

Sorry for a late reply, I've been away for work for the past few weeks.

I think I'm still leaning towards keeping them white because I've seen quite a few white 34's getting around with black rims...

If only it were as easy as NFS where you can paint your wheels every few seconds if you want them another colour or style :(

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
