Getting a new set of wheels! Opinions? Options

[Syaoran]

So I'm compulsively buying a new set of wheels. They're going on my black hatch. I'm not sure what color lug nuts to get... my gut says to keep it simple and go black, another part of me says silver and another gold, so I'm unsure.

nice looking rims im looking to get a similar set
and imo black hatch id go with purple lug nuts

I'm still undecided. I bought them, and holy shet.

They're Enkei RPM2, AKA Bortex Enkei. They're subaru wheels with FWD car offset (+43)

Our cars are +35, so are most FWD cars. Why would you opt for +43. I guess.
Btw, i had similiar wheels (17x8, +35) with purple Muteki lug nuts. Youre better off with silver nuts.

My Mazda3 has +52.5 stock offset on 17" alloys. Most they'll fit without any modification to neither front or rear is 17x8 +45.

Anywho, yeah I was thinking getting them silver, or the prettier chrome titanium.

I had 18x9+27 in the rear and they still tucked.

Yeah I'm definitely getting spacers. Most likely 25mm rear 20mm front. I don't want poke or to be super flush, I just want a nicely aggressive look. I'll measure what spacers I need once I put them on. Should be by the end of the week. I'm not riding on coilovers yet so I don't have the resources to adjust camber to fit flush.

I second the motion for colored lugnuts.

Mcgard makes good lifetime warranty spline drive lugnuts with colored caps Even a black cap with a chrome body would look sick

nice looking wheels, im saving money to get some new one too, depend on what color is your interior i like to match, but not over do it, i would say gold would look good with black then again depending how is your interior and headlights hehe thats just my taste.

[Syaoran]

I went with black lug nuts. Still haven't had the chance to put the wheels on since I'm short on money to buy the spacers.

Those wheels look great! I need to upgrade the wheels on my black '97 convertbile. Could you put them on and take a pic just so I can see how they look?
