so your the one who bought those white primax rims? lol, good deal huh? they looks so hot man, black on black is sexy. so are you keeping the rotas too? are these just like cool back up rims?

Yup, these rims were just a side project but I'm very happy with how they came out.
And yes I'm definantly going to keep the rota's and while they are off the car I'm replacing all the tires.

BBK? What kind of rotors/ calipers are they?

oh yea, the wheels look amazing!

I bought the rotors/pads/ss brake-lines from horsepowerfreak. Ben was selling the package deal for like 300 hundred something so I figured what the hell , not a bad deal at all. Overall, I can stop much quicker and no more shaky vibration through my brake pedal from my stock rotors. <-I think they were warped(ughdance)
 
god that looks good!

excellent paint work you've done. I'm usually not a fan of all-black wheels but I love them on black cars...as someone already said, "Vader" ftw. I actually prefer the look of those rims as opposed to the gold Rotas. Too bad you're keeping the Rotas, I would be willing to take them off your hands.

I'm curious as to the specs of the wheels and tires. You said 40 series tires what are the rest of the numbers?

Thanks man. Yea, the all black style isn't for the faint of heart(boom07)

As far as i know the rims are made by Primax and are 17"x7 5x114.3
I'm not sure of the weight but they feel a little heavier than the rota's, but that doesn't surprise me.
I really like how the car rides now. It's even lower with the low pros to add to that extra smooth stance...hhaha!

Cool. I'm guessing your running a 215 tire if it's a 40 series. Am I right?

I definitely know what you mean about tire size effecting the stance. When I had 205/45's on my stock 16's, it sat a lot lower than it does now with my 215/45/17's. I'm looking to switch to a 215/40/17 for a little more clearance when I finally get lowered, that's why I'm curious about your tires.
 
NICE! i was real affraid when i read the tittle "painted rims black" haha, but looks good man, im real impressed, i love black rims, keepin it real
 
if you decide to sell these**cough cough cough**, i wouldnt care for them, **cough** (/fake cough)
 
Black on black is beautiful! Still keeping your gold wheels around? they looks really, really sweet too!
 
Damn, dude that car looks sick. Looks straight out of a funeral with all that black.
