So I messed up one of my wheels and I think I might want to just get a new set, as I have had these for almost 3 years. What do you think would look good on Intruder? I like the Kazera KZ-K in black and the OZ Ultraleggera in black. Opinions?

still trying to find out what brand they are, but if you manage to find out, go for these, and pls share the info. these are mean!!

Kelu · « **Reply #5 on:** May 31, 2010, 03:31:34 AM »

I wouldn't go with a full black rim in your case Spicy because a full black rim it is looking "smaller", imho.

I would go with something like Enkei, 5 spokes and model which you like. I think this more a matter of tastes which will be hard to be clarified on a topic.

Or you are trying to do like you did in the past about your car appearance?

I think those are OZ wheels http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=O.Z.&wheelModel=Comp&wheelFinish=Black+Painted

Steve,

or get these and paint the bar in the middle of each fork to match the stripes on your car.

If it would be OZ, I would go:

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=O.Z.&wheelModel=Energy&wheelFinish=Machined+w%2FFlat+Black+Accent

Enkey:
1) http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=Enkei+Performance&wheelModel=L-SR&wheelFinish=Machined+w%2FBlack+Accent

2) http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=Enkei+Performance&wheelModel=STR5&wheelFinish=Machined+w%2FBlack+Accent

3) Oxigin Lexon any combo do you like

Dunno about fitments or weight of this examples

Arabas · « **Reply #10 on:** May 31, 2010, 09:50:19 AM »

wow!!
OZ are waaaaay out of my budget...

Oxigin Lexor look great!!!
any idea on european prices?

i just checked the prices for the oxigin....

what's wrong with the stock rims anyway??????

Go-N Def · « **Reply #11 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:32:01 AM »

Kelu,

Those rims arent Spicey enough for the Intruder! I like Joe's thought of painting the Platinums.

I still like my Forte's. Cant wait to see them in person in a few days!

spicy3480 · « **Reply #12 on:** May 31, 2010, 11:17:23 AM »

I hit the curb pretty bad with one last night and the sight of looking at them kills me every time. I am kind of bored with the ones I have now anyway and need a chance...I love the OZ Racing ones that Joe linked to but they are wayyyyy out of m budget.

spicy3480 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 31, 2010, 11:24:00 AM »

Can you get those OZ comp wheels anywhere?

spicy3480 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 31, 2010, 07:58:11 PM »

I want those OZ comps really bad like in that picture above...does anyone know where I can get them???

kennysabarese · « **Reply #15 on:** May 31, 2010, 09:01:08 PM »

I would strongly suggest not an entire black wheel. I'd do some red or chrome in there somewhere.

Also you can easily have wheels painted to your needs and they can even do partial chrome highlights.

spicy3480 · « **Reply #16 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:31:44 PM »

Why not...just curious.

spicy3480 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:35:15 PM »

What about these? http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=KZK821B&wheelMake=Kazera&wheelModel=KZ-K&wheelFinish=Black+w%2FRed+Stripe&showRear=no&autoMake=Pontiac&autoModel=Solstice+GXP&autoYear=2007&autoModClar=&filterSize=All&filterFinish=All&filterSpecial=false&filterBrand=All&filterNew=All&sort=Brand

Can I fit a 275/40-18 on them in the rear??

spicy3480 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:38:26 PM »

Or without the red, but with some chrome: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=KZK821BML&wheelMake=Kazera&wheelModel=KZ-K&wheelFinish=Black+w%2FMach+Lip&showRear=no&autoMake=Pontiac&autoModel=Solstice+GXP&autoYear=2007&autoModClar=&filterSize=All&filterFinish=All&filterSpecial=false&filterBrand=All&filterNew=All&sort=Brand

Great price, too!!!

kennysabarese · « **Reply #19 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:39:16 PM »

Without the contrast the wheels don't pop, then you have a car with really shiny paint and your wheel wells just end up looking... "muddy" maybe

If your car was any other color it would be a different story.

There is a guy who powder coated the stock wheels black and I think it looks terrible. I think his name on the BB is "blacksolstice"

My favorite black wheels are from KW's Opel GT, I'd search for my post but I gotta run right now, maybe you can find it, but they aren't available in the USA. Bad ass. Here's pics

spicy3480 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 31, 2010, 10:42:27 PM »

Those are sick....what are those wheels?

Kelu · « **Reply #21 on:** June 01, 2010, 04:52:01 AM »

Oxigin

when I showed them to you you didn't like them

JimmyBaja · « **Reply #22 on:** June 01, 2010, 07:46:29 AM »

I don't believe these are available in the US, when Googled they come up on UK sites. You may have to import them.

You have seen these wheels spicy, they are what I have on my car, added bonus they are light.

spicy3480 · « **Reply #24 on:** June 01, 2010, 09:53:31 AM »

Can I fit 275's on them like I have in the rear now? They have an 8.5" width as opposed to the 9" width on the rear tires currently on the car.
