New wheel color?
One of my wheels needed fixed and is now missing paint. So I'm deciding between having it color matched back to the other three or changing the color of the wheels.
Was thinking about a deep shinny red?
Any suggestions?
Currently gold.

Im not sure that would flow well with that car. I personally think aluminum/gray/grey/black looks best with a black car. Even bronze would be better. However, it is your car and your personal taste.

I think you should sell them and get not fake wheels. But like he said^, your car, your taste lol. But you could probably sell them and get some 17" RPF1s or something cool like that.

I agree that red probably wont fit a dark colored car well. My daughter loves red and was hinting to red wheels and seeing as this will become her car I was considering it but I agree it wont look right. I will probably just have it matched to the other three for now as I will replace them in time.
They`re not fake they are just not high dollar wheels. To be sure I just walked out to the garage and touched them again to make sure they were really there. I have other stuff in mind for the car first as these wheels seem to be working just fine for now. Its not a race car nor will it ever be. I will be getting another one that I will make more of a race car with either a LSx swap or a 2jz ( havent decided yet ) not just a pretty car with a little kick like this one. That one will have wheels that matter.

Lol I see what you did there. No need to get upset.
I just remembered you saying something about going to 17s else where, and it's a viable option. There are plenty of OEM Nissan wheels that look awesome on S14s as well.

I will continue to do things to this one with her as I start to look for a new chassis for myself. Not 100% sure what "S" chassis exactly I want to go with. I do love the look of the 98 S14 but I assume it is heavier than previous ones.
