: ANOTHER set of wheels..
Ok, well this is it. My 10th set of wheels. These are Velox VX-8 18" Gunmetal. This is step 1 of 2. Next week I will have my car painted and the body kit put on. Then it's back to spending gobs of money on TURBO!
If they don't show up refesh. It's a free provider.. :D

Thrillseeker197 09-18-2002, 07:21 PM badass Matt. I like the ride alot. The whole silver/carbon fiber/gunmetal is exactly the scheme of my car. What front bumper is that??
That's the Stillen Large Mouth front bumper. I'm hoping it looks a little obnoxious when I put the rest of the kit on. Thanks for the props. I'm ADDICTED to carbon fiber!! :D

nismoman20 09-18-2002, 08:19 PM Love em!!!
I want those rims for my black B13.
Victorious 09-19-2002, 09:44 AM Yo Matt4Nissan, what do the 18's feel like? Does the ride feel harsher? Is your car slower? What size tires are you running? I was planning on running some lightweight 17's. But I've been thinking about getting some 18's. I want to see if there's a noticeable effect on performance. Oh yeah, what type of suspension setup do you have. BTW, Your car looks SWEET!!:D
If you want to go fast don't get 18's. I have 2 sets of wheels at the moment. If I feel like playing speed racer, I'll just throw the 15's on. Currently I'm running 215/35/18's. As far as the suspension goes. It's under development. lol I just realized that my struts are COMPLETELY blown so I'm going to order the B13/B14 AGX combo.
SE-Rican 09-19-2002, 10:00 AM You damn rim whore!!!! You know how I feel about the wheels!!;)
Victorious 09-19-2002, 10:17 AM I plan on going turbo, also. Do you think that you'll have more than enough power to blaze those 18's then.
Serban 09-19-2002, 12:05 PM Matt Matt Matt...when are you going to stop playing these childish games and just get 20s? You're not a big baller till you're rollin on dubs :D
The rims look good, but I think the C2s looked a lot sweeter. Just a IMO. Which kit are you getting again?

Those wheels are why I'm broke:D
The grille is actually a modified Nis-Knacks grille. I'm getting it painted to match the car when I put the kit on. I just painted it black to get rid of the chrome.
Dswtflip4u 09-19-2002, 04:31 PM I figured that . hey man car is very nice. I can't wait to get the good old 200 hopped up again.

WickedSR20 09-19-2002, 09:32 PM Looks good. I am partial to the SSR's you had, but those look nice. I am also developing an addiction for carbon fiber.
Run away from Carbon Fiber while you still can. Don't walk. RUN!! j/k Man I love it. On the new wheels they actually have CF center caps!
The SSR's were nice, they looked the biggest out of any wheels I've had. My old roomate has them on his civic. Needless to say they're trashed.
sage3 09-20-2002, 11:58 AM Damn bro, with all those wheels you went through you could have opened up a wheel shop :D Nice wheels man.
Sage, glad to see you're still around bro. Thanks for the props. My car goes in the shop on Monday!! Getting the FULL Stillen GTR Widebody kit put on along with getting my hood painted, trunk holes fixed, and grille painted. I'm SOOOO STOKED!!
DubuRX 09-21-2002, 03:54 AM I'm surprised no one has axed you so far... WHAT COLOR??
I'm thinking pink...:D
Crono1321 09-21-2002, 07:03 PM DUDE! Matt if I buy the guys kit who is selling it you won't be the only one with this hybrid kit! HeHe what will make you mad is if I can get it finished before you! tehehe! I am going to keep the stock color if I was to buy the kit though.
