Would love some insight on these rims...
About to start on my raven black FRS render but came into a bit of a problem. Looking for these rims. My plan is to do white door handle, black spokes with white rim walls(or whatever you call them) then white(from diagonal bottom left to top right) rearview mirrors. interior will be painted black and white as well as seats may or may not be replaced with recaro depending on the trim. I'll post pics of those as well when im finished.
My preference would be to find rims similar to the lambo's, also before i get too far into things.. would they fit? Cheers, and thanks in advance:happy0180: |

I'm really confused because you're talking about a few different things here. So your question is what kind of wheels or would they fit? I'm not sure which ones they are (nice wheels though) but most manufacturers make their product to fit common sizes. 5X100 is pretty common.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you won't be able to get those rims, they won't fit and they cost half the price of the FR-S. I can however tell you what rims are those. The BMW X6 is fitted with 23" Lumma Racing 3 rim in custom paint finish, also available in 8,5 x 19", but only in german hub size which is 5x120. The Lamborghini Gallardo is fitted with 20" custom rims built by Aderson Germany, a very expensive and exclusive VIP tuner. All you can do is look for similar style rims from other brands that would fit the FR-S.

Thank You!
I seriously hate when i hear people say "man i want those rims so badly" to which then i respond "Well, I seriously hope you don't buy JUST the rims. Have fun trying to put a rim on your car" They just look at me like And then i school them on the fact that they've been using the wrong terminology for ages. WHEELS PEOPLE, They're called wheels. /rant |

If you do a nice job then what's the difference between a wheel company painting them and you painting them?
