Hey all

Been looking for new rims.

Cant decide between silver or black Enkies, so in my search found 'coloured' rims.

What are peoples opinions on them? Tacky?

I dont mind it but not sure they suit gtrs?

Mines a white r33 GTR

You're already struggling to pick what wheels you want.

There is no way you'd be able to pick a colour out of the ones available.

Just go standard colour and pick between silver or black. Literally flip a coin if you can't pick.

Depends on the car and what look colour theme you are going for.

As you have a White R33 GTR:

Black wheels = Tough look

White wheels = Clean look

Silver = Subtle / Stock look

Wouldn't go any fluro colour.

If you want to go some kinda of fluro, go Takata Green:

But you got to match the colour right or it looks shit and tacky.

And they only look good on White / Black cars.

1..Nothing is fad anymore..truth is its all been done before so do what you like..

2..Don't gutter rash your wheels and it won't matter what color they are will it..

3...The beauty of white is you can put any colour wheel you like and it can look good. :yes:

personally I like coloured wheels, So I say pick your favourite colour and roll with it. ;)

I like orange...

In certain cases I think it cheapens the look of a car.. In saying that the R34 really works (pic above)

I'm not a fan for my own car but if you can get the colour combo right then it can look good. However my fluro green roll cage was enough to get police attention.. I didn't need fluro rims to help out lol

    • 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/
