View Full Version : Black wheels with red lip on a black 8
ShAdOwFoX 05-04-2008, 08:30 PM Has anyone tried putting on black wheels with a red lip on an 8, preferrably a black 8? I'm considering trying these forgelines but I'm not sure how it would come out. Any thoughts?

ShAdOwFoX 05-05-2008, 03:03 PM Anyone have ideas of black with a red lip rims? Seems like they're tough to find.
dozer 05-05-2008, 03:03 PM it would be nice, then paint your emblems red!!! i was think about gettin some rims like that on my VR8 and paintin my emblems black...
pdxhak 05-05-2008, 03:32 PM what about this on a BB 8?

lesper4 05-05-2008, 03:48 PM those wheels looks really nice unmounted but i wonder what it would look like with tires and a car on top
c0ldf1ame 05-05-2008, 03:57 PM ^ like sex
dozer 05-05-2008, 03:57 PM those would look SWEEEETTTTT
ShAdOwFoX 05-05-2008, 04:47 PM forgeline makes some of the hottest wheels but they are ridiculously expensive as i said before. Hmmm the black and gold combo looks more appealing than than the black/red
pdxhak 05-05-2008, 05:18 PM My next set of wheels may have a black lip. I have not decided if I want to powder coat my existing wheels or get a new set.
ShAdOwFoX 05-05-2008, 05:36 PM My next set of wheels may have a black lip. I have not decided if I want to powder coat my existing wheels or get a new set.
cool which ones are you looking into?
Fortunate Few 05-05-2008, 06:17 PM it looks good.
Snakebite202 05-05-2008, 07:39 PM Sportmax (XXR) makes wheels with different lip colors...they're only the mesh ones tho.
ShAdOwFoX 05-11-2008, 12:29 AM well i think im gonna skip the whole red lip idea and go for something a little different. What do you guys think of this wheel?

It might help if you post a picture of an RX8 with those wheels on it.
Merely posting a pic of a hot chick by herself is nice, but at least put an RX8 in the picture.

ummm last time i checked those wheels were on the rx8 that the chick is posing with. :squint:
remixlp 05-11-2008, 02:19 AM ^^^ what rims are those?
remixlp 05-11-2008, 02:22 AM nvm they are asa ds3
ShAdOwFoX 05-11-2008, 03:05 AM the 1st pic is the ds3 bu tthe pic with the car is actually ar4s but they dont sell them here so i think the ds3s are the replacements here. Ds3s are 3 piece while ar4s are one piece.
prospectjtaz 05-11-2008, 08:40 AM those wheels look like a flower, with the rounded end of the spoke.
ShAdOwFoX 05-11-2008, 12:33 PM those wheels look like a flower, with the rounded end of the spoke.
haha i thought the same thing when i first looked at it but i like them
lesper4 05-11-2008, 01:35 PM yeah those are deffinitly hot wheels and so it the babe
To be named later 05-11-2008, 01:55 PM ummm last time i checked those wheels were on the rx8 that the chick is posing with. :squint:
Like I said........thanks for the pic of the hot chick but it would be nice if it showed an RX8 with those wheels on it.
kersh4w 05-11-2008, 02:22 PM yeah i dont know where the chick. that model, shazica, is incredibly hot. goto photobliss.de for more pics.
the forgeline rims are incredibly sweet. holy crap, i cant believe i've never seen this company before. unfortunately 1 rim costs total what i'd spend on all 4 for enkies.. :(
remixlp 05-12-2008, 04:10 PM I looked around a bit to find a site that sells those rims. So far i only found two. k.One of which is in the uk.
REsuperD 05-12-2008, 04:36 PM i actually saw one on the road yesterday! bb w/ black rims and red lips. think car was tinted as well so the whole thing was like a black hole. dunno if it's exactly the same rim, but it looked pretty sweet
ShAdOwFoX 05-12-2008, 11:05 PM I looked around a bit to find a site that sells those rims. So far i only found two. k.One of which is in the uk.
Which sites did you find? Ive been looking for a legitimate site that sell those wheels for awhile now. Thanks.

I found this com,pany last night and they are awesome!! but way beyond hella expensive!! they also offer service to color the lips and such...
http://www.360forged.com/html/home.html
I came across this company on an M6 forum and they were so nonchalant about it. "O it'll be around 10k for a full set"
damn!!
remixlp 05-13-2008, 01:42 AM found this but not too sure how legit it is.

remixlp 05-13-2008, 01:48 AM tire rack also sell asa ds3 wheels but you have to call and order since they are not listed on the site.
TopGear8 05-13-2008, 11:52 AM The ASA wheels look very cool, but they are hard to find in America, and are also very heavy.
realdeal 05-14-2008, 09:19 PM tire rack also sell asa ds3 wheels but you have to call and order since they are not listed on the site.
You sure? I called there today and the rep I talked to said they didn't have them.
Here's another euro site that sells them. I think its the netherlands.

Use decimals instead of the comma!!!! :lol:

ooooo that makes much more sense haha :D:
Sashmog 05-16-2008, 06:20 PM any1 know how i can get my hands on these rims ive looked online no were to be found
realdeal 05-16-2008, 07:02 PM any1 know how i can get my hands on these rims ive looked online no were to be found
I called spoiledcars.com, and they are a legit site. Unfortunately they informed me that the ASA DS3 and ASA JH4 (looks like the AR4)are discontinued and they have no stock. Which means are chances of getting this rim are slim to none :banghead:
nvrfalter 05-16-2008, 09:01 PM http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y240/dancap/Selling/salesup011.jpg
these shits are mine now. ill post pics once i get em on my BB
TopGear8 05-16-2008, 11:25 PM ^I'll be looking forward to seeing them on your car!
realdeal 05-17-2008, 12:45 AM That looks badass.
perks11 05-17-2008, 12:56 AM yes i love this thread i am thinking about putting on black wheels with the red lip on my velocity red. now this thread just makes me wanna get them quicker!!!
nvrfalter 05-17-2008, 03:09 AM cant wait to get em on. hopefully monday.
nvrfalter 05-17-2008, 02:32 PM my only problem is i dont know what color lugs i should use. black could be too much black. the red always looks pink. maybe chrome to accent the centercaps?
ShAdOwFoX 05-17-2008, 02:55 PM i would say chrome or silver to compliment the silver cap and writing if red looks pinkish. Can't wait to see it on your car!
nvrfalter 05-18-2008, 01:49 AM hahah im honored to be in your signature shadowfox. hahah sweet. anyways im thinkin either chrome or black. if anyone could recommend a good site where i can get them cheap/quick thatd be sweet
SHOWOFF 05-18-2008, 11:58 PM Can't wait to see them on. I am torn between those, Axis Super Hiro, or the Type M's.
Did you do Staggered?
nvrfalter 05-19-2008, 01:10 AM not staggered. pretty much stock. 18x8 +37. got a great deal on em from dancap so it was a pretty easy decision. granted, i have no money now, but it will hopefully look fackin baller.
still undecided on lug color, but will these work? theyre definitely a tapered seat.

SHOWOFF 05-19-2008, 03:48 AM I have lugs very similar to those. Mine are anondized and those look painted. If they're painted you might have some issues with the paint chipping off.
They're called Tech Drive.
ShAdOwFoX 05-20-2008, 12:43 AM hahah im honored to be in your signature shadowfox. hahah sweet. anyways im thinkin either chrome or black. if anyone could recommend a good site where i can get them cheap/quick thatd be sweet
lol no prob bro you deserve it hahaha. I think black would be a bit much since your wheels are black. Go for chrome i think it'll look much better imo.
ShAdOwFoX 05-20-2008, 12:49 AM so i was looking around for some wheels and i came across these tsw jaramas.

nvrfalter 05-24-2008, 05:39 PM im not feelin those dude. i think its the bolts around the edge. i never liked those. ill have my rims on for sure on friday, but it could be sooner like wednesday. ill get pics of those up asap after that.
ILoveFI 05-24-2008, 11:58 PM Paint your stock rims black w/ a red lip.

ShAdOwFoX 05-26-2008, 01:34 PM Well I liked those wheels i posted up but i understand what you mean by the bolts. I think they overdid it.
Those painted oem wheels are not a bad idea but i id rather go for aftermarket than take the time to get it painted. Plus im lookin to get 19s anyway.
ShAdOwFoX 05-26-2008, 02:00 PM so ive been looking around for wheels and i came across a few that are ok but not quite what i was looking for.
