Wheel Directory: Styluz S006 18x7.5 +40




I figured that I'd share my new wheels with everybody. I took pictures a bit late in a day, so they are not that great but it'll give you an idea.

Car has installed HID 6K lights and is debadged. Also, carbon fiber license plate holder is installed. I need to get something to replace those hideous white center caps in the wheels tho.
It is at stock height.

Wheels info:
Silver Styluz S006
Size 18" x 7.5"
Offset: 40mm
Weight: 20.9 lb
Hub size: 73.1mm (centering rings recommended/necessary)

Winter Tires info:
Pirelli Sottozero Series II
225/40 18"

Not bad, maybe tint on windows would make the car blend in a little more ?
Rims stand out a tad too much for my liking , but great job

Why not 8.5"? Stance looks good though. I'm not a fan of the silver look. Rims have a good design, wonder how they'd look matte or polished black.

Did you do the red tail light mod? Cause if so, that looks good. I need to find the write up.

Thanks! I really like it, so if you like contrast, you'll enjoy it.

Planning on tinting the windows a bit in the future. I noticed that there are two schools of thought: people who like black on black look, and people who like to have contrast between wheels and car. I follow the latter one. Nothing wrong with either one, but I personally like the contrast look. Silver wheels actually tie in nicely with silver headlights, tail lights, and emblems.

I'm not planning on having tires any wider than 225 so 7.5" seems like the best choice. Also, wider rim would add more weight and make car slower, I believe.

As I said above, I'm not a huge fan of black on black. It blends together too much for my liking. Dont get me wrong, I still think that it looks bad ass, but in my humble opinion silver just looks really sharp. And I personally prefer the "sharp" look.

The lights are actually stock, they look all red because it was dark out. But I agree, it looks really nice and I think that I'll paint them red.

Rota grids look sick, I agree. There is some dude in Texas that posted pics of them on with red lugs and red tails and it looks really nice. Very BAMF lol
BUT - here's my question: don't you think that if your car looks like that, you better have turbo/supercharger installed? It's a beefy look, so I feel like you should have a beefy engine to go with it.. Just a thought haha

Definitely reminds me of Ferrari. Although the wheel gap is throwing me off, it is calling out to me telling me that it wants to be flush

But thats just me

I don't know if they bring to mind Ferrari. My first thought when I saw this was "what Merc did these get ripped from?"

I like the contrast of the wheels to the car, but window tint would really make it look crisp...solid black car with bright silver or white wheels..Mint.

Looks good though, 18" without have too much wheel, good visibility through the spokes, strong looking design without looking chunky. flows well with this car.
