Oppinions on wheels please!

do you feel like these stick out more than the stock wheels? I am still in this huge debate, I have never had experience with offset or why it is such a problem on our cars. Just wish I could say... I want 18X7.5 and they fit and look good regardless of the offset!

Yes they stick out a good bit more than stock it appears. There are all kinds of theories on offset with no proof which is actually better or worse on this car.

would a 40mm or a 50 mm stick out more or less than a 42 mm?
 
A +40mm offset would stick out slightly more than a +42mm offset. Basically the lower the offset the more it sticks out.

so then getting something with a 48mm or 50mm would look lame then right? because it would be tucked in like the stock wheel?

I would like to get the H&R springs when they become available and in stock so it seems like a 40mm would look good then right?

how about a 19 inch rim with a 38mm offset?

Yeah basically but you would defiantly need to get your fenders rolled for them to fit.

I wouldn't go with 19's unless you're going for the baller look . (they will be heavier and more $$)
 
18x8 38 mm ofset.....and yest they stick out as **** I really like the look

I you plan to lower the car you should stik with 42offset as the lowest how ever some may say its bad for suspension
 
those actually look really nice! I am pondering getting black with silver lip, gunmetal with silver lip or all silver. Maybe even ones without a lip something flush with the fender might make the rim look bigger kind of like the stock rim.

But those 38mm offsets look pretty sweet on there!

how about an a 19X8.5 rim? Everyone seems to go 7.5 or 8 so wondering if an 8/5 wide would still fit.

How about GOLD wheels on a silver speed3??? Anyone think that would be cool:

I had gold on my blue 350z and it looked pretty sweet, I think gold on silver might look good, but still in debate about silver, black, or gunmetal! Decisions decisions!!!!
 
I am all about the gold wheel look but it just doesn't work on silver. I would go with silver on silver.
 
Yeah please don't go with Gold on a silver speed3.. They're gonna laugh at you (hah)(boom03)

With silver I personally would go with maybe silver or black. Maybe even gunmetal?

Thanks to haberdashery and his photoshop skills he put one of my favorite rims above onto a silver speed3 so I could see what it would look like.... I think we may have a winner here, what do you think about this:

Yah, gold wheels look best on black or white cars. I say silver, gunmetal or black for your car... IMHO, of course...
