Question 19" SSR GT3 Question

Hi everyone,

i have a black c32 and now i feel it is time for me to make a few changes to the car. First off i wanted to do wheels and suspension. I think i like the 19" SSR gt3 wheels the best because of their price and i guess they will suit the car nicely.
i would love to hear your opinions.

Then, what i was thinking about doing was coloring the spokes part of the wheel (not sure what they are called) the entire center part black, and leaving the lips polished. I dont know how i can get this done, and so if anyone know where, how and for how much that would be very helpful.

Would i need to roll my fenders? and how much does that cost?

Finally, i wanted to lower the car with springs a little and so any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

okay, you have to get the rims powder coated by a wheel refinishing shop. expect to pay anywhere around the $350 mark. as for the springs, you could go with the h&r sport springs for a minor drop or do a full suspension upgrade and go with the h&r cup kit. it includes springs and shocks and handle very well. drop is 2" front and 1.5" rear. hope that helps. btw, i will most likely do the same "paint job" for my rims in the summer.

C32REY,

I received your PM, however I am not in the office right now. Give me a call or email tomorrow, and I can get you pricing on everything. We can have the wheel centers painted any color you'd like. I had a M3 customer who we actually painted Carbon Black to match his car.

Thanks,
Ben
