What rims should I get!?
I want to get a CHEAP set of rims for my silver monte SS after I get my windows tinted. I want black and might do a chrome/silver lip. Will probly plastidip them. Found some used Elbrus ones that will work for cheap but idk if they will look good if I painted them black and left chrome lip..? It won't let me post a pic on the thread so ill put a pic of the wheels in a new album on my profile. Please help me out!

Anyone have suggestions?? How do you think the Elbrus's would look painted/plastidip black with silver lip? Or should I wait and try to find something that looks more like those other ones.. Opinions please!
I just put Helo 844's on my 04, you can have all black or some chrome on the spoke if you want. I did 18's with Yokahama 580's, major improvement in ride and handling.
Only paid $450 at Discount Tire for the wheels with rebates.

Those TSW racing ones (first picture in SpaceRider's post) are one of my most viable options in replacing my black spoke/chrome lip wheels. But they aren't exactly cheap. If you plastidip the wheels black, then it's going to be pretty obvious that they're plastidipped. It's a matte black that never really looks dark enough. Painting them yourself with some better materials might go well!
