wheels

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

Anyways I'm getting Focal F16's in 17 x 7.5 I was supposed to get them on today but the shop forgot to order wheel spacers so I'll likely get them on Friday. anyways I was wondering what color should I paint my calipers I was thinking Red so that everything would match up, I was also thinking Black would be nice too if not a simple Grey.

I think red would look pretty good.

[colonel6632]

red calipers always works

[CactusWill]

Red would look sweet, just make sure its matched to the color of the rim and the car. I saw a maserati the other day, red with red rims and red calipers, omfg hottest car I ever saw.

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

yeah red is what I was thinking all along.

[Vinalero]

Red, of course!

[kwhauck]

purple!! or orange, orange is good too......

[01OldsAleroGt]

You can always pull a Billy and go Blue :emotlol:

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I really like them

On a red car I would do red calipers with black brackets, which is exactly what I have right now

Ha Ha Ha That is the sweetest ricer mod out there but no I'll stick to paint then I'll do the Vette brake conversion sometime down the road my biggest issue is I have drum brakes in the back, I would rather have disc's in the back and finding a winter rim that is big enough to fit with the Vette brakes.

[pimpalero2003]

Just keep a look out for a cheap set of 17s on eBay or craigslist some scratches rash or something on them who cares! Actually just sold my 20s with perfect thread on craigslist for 200

[jackal2000]

i like those rims. i agree you shoud go red calipers. i am looking at getting new wheels in the fall and i was leaninhttp://shopping.netsuite.com/core/media/media.nl/id.7120/c.275188/.f?h=143398695f3a9076105bg towards these konigs but the biggst the make them is 17" and i kind of want 19".

[MattismodderX]

^^^ i came

[cliffordwoeller]

I like hmmm but maybe gunmetal would look better on my ho

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

those are nice, I wanted to get the TSW Trackstar 5 but none of the shops around here would order them for me so I took the next best thing I could find. I'm not too big on buying larger items of the net there are somethings I will, but wheels and tires are too large.

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

Anyways.....Here they are, I like at from a far distance they look like steelies but up close they aren't lol I also Can't wait to lower her but I'll Have to deal with the fugly ride height gap until I have time to lower it. sorry It's a little dirty

[NickAlero2000]

They're nice for 16's, but they look too small....
gotta ball out lol, 18s/20s FTW!!!

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

they're 17's and if there not I'm going to go get some money back cause my copy of the work order says that they are 17's

there is not a very big selection of wheels in 20", they are usually too wide for an alero. i think 17" is as big as this brand of wheel goes, same thing with those konigs i posted.

looks good. wonder how it looks on silver car. :ninja:

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

bigger is normally heavier, they look small because the over all tire size is the same as stock but lower profile cause I didn't want my speedometer and odometer to be all un-calibrated. I think those konigs would look sweet on a silver car but you gotta do your interior with a little bit of red to get the red to go with the car.

[jackal2000]

ehhh windows are tinted, i like the interior as is. i do have black and red pedals and floor mats though lol

my paint isnt in the best shape so i might even have it stripped and primered black, not sure yet.

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

each to there own there's nothing wrong with the red but I think it adds to the look.

No way those are 17s. They don't look it at all. Take a tape measure and take a pic.

or he could just get a shot of the sidewall with the tire size

[NickAlero2000]

you can fit a 16'' rim in a 17'' tire...
i wanna make sure hes not getting ripped off

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

give me a few minutes and I will take a picture nick.
Edit: zoom in on it

[AbHeLlRaZoR]
