Copper colored wheels - Page 2

FlowForm_Wheels · 06-05-2017, 12:03 PM

Ironically for our Open House this past Saturday we wanted to display a new wheel style which we'll be debuting on the forum soon. This is the RS305M in Polished Copper. What do you think? Personally not the wheel style I would have picked, but I love the color.

i like the color and the design but think he could have picked a different design that would have suited the car better!

So many variations of copper. Either to orange or to red. Too shiney or dull.
Personal preference I guess
Kinda like Bronze. Love mine...but would like them a little lighter...kinda more goldish.

Maybe like these. BAM!

Those wheels are sexy. I think those would look good on my nightfall gray... you don't have any issues with the 19" wheels rubbing on the brakes or anything do you

Not at all. Lots of room.
You can feel the difference from the weight savings as well.

The stock wheels plastidip quite effectively. I recently did mine in white, although ultimately I'll probably get lightweight bronze wheels eventually, or put some actual 5th gen z28 wheels on in black (pictures with those on, too, but haven't driven with them on so undecided as yet).

Ecchi, I'm very confused by your car haha. I'm getting a 240sx/drift car vibe, but I feel like maybe you just ran into something and made the best of it.

Either way, the Zip Tie gang sticker and stitches made me laugh! Haha.

Haha, I aim to entertain for sure! When I first put zip ties on the car I did refer to it as my "driftmaro".

I was in a wreck last year (third car back in a four car pile), insurance messed me around for ages so I gave up and I've been slowly repairing it over the last few months myself, but it seemed pointless painting stuff before it was all done - so, I carbon wrapped the new fender and patched the bumper cover with zip ties and gorilla tape (gorilla tape mostly now removed), and put various decals on the car. The right headlight unit is held together with clear tape and polycarbonate, and I wired in a standard halogen bulb as the replacement cheap Chinese HID I bought kept blowing the left headlight fuse - I need to buy a whole new unit, which comes with the bulb, so am loathed to shell out for the OEM bulb alone. The only damage the car sustained causing drivability issues was that the lower control arm was snapped on the side of the impact, so that was the first thing to be replaced.

Before purchasing a new fender, I'd actually covered the rather large dent with plastic food chopping boards and gorilla tape. It was...something. It worked, though!

Also, my first performance car was a 1993 200sx (240sx here, of course) with a CA18DET, modified and tuned and drifty. So mixing the "rice" culture with some American muscle works fine for me. Once it's all repaired I'll probably ditch the bulk of the silliness, though, haha!

Pictures of how it was:

Canadian. Our pricing is whack.
Contact Paul at PK Auto Design. I know he has some of the best pricing and is a full service shop.
