I really got bored today and took the plunge. forget low key. this is just a teaser. The wheels wont go on the car till the weekend to allow the paint to properly cure. gotta repaint the brembos too. Then I got my spoiler project to complete.

GREEN is the new BLACK
I love your ride as-is ASTIG, but similar wheel colors matched with a white car like yours seems to be the trend nowadays. I will critique it once I see pics of the full package on the car.

Loving the wheels Astig. I think that will blend well on that G of yours.
do i smell some purple coming?
close...blue. BOLD indeed. My wife isnt happy with me. Maybe when she sees it on she'll appreciate it.
I need to adjust coils for a more aggressive stance. I went with 235's in the rear and 225's upfront. Gonna put maybe 5mm spacers in the rear to bring them out some.

NICE! I always wanted a white G to have green wheels. If no one was going to do it, I knew I would have to eventually :) but you've taken that load off my hands now so it's all good haha. I still wanna do orange though...
my 2nd choice was orange. go for it dude!
I may still paint my "winter" wheels (tenzo mesh) orange.

DOPE ASTIG, DOPE!!!
I almost wished I painted my car white when I did it so I could swap back and forth some crazy color wheels.

I used rustoleum "grabber green". It's a high temp engine paint. then added a wheel clearcoat. I probably should have used a dark primer instead of white to get closer to "takata green". I almost went with a lime green color too.
I think for darker colored cars, orange would be nice. Although with white cars, you got more options.
I'll take a picture of them today under natural lighting conditions/outdoords.
