FN01R-C w/ mb 93?

I decided i'm going to go ahead and purchase these rims ($1200 for 17x9 with tires is awesome). What color do you think would go good with MB . . . post pics if you have them please. Thanks- Clayton T.

Mat black would look good with the MB. maybe even bronze. either way, really good choice in rims.

IMO, I would stick with silver.

Thanks guys, i've already seen that black car but seeing it again reminds me why i want those rims. I have a local guy who can get 5zigens for $200 a pop in the size that i want BUT after looking at the price per tire i got a little depressed, it's going to cost me $800 bucks for the tires and size i want (goodyear eagle F1 GS-D3 Blackwalls)!!! At that price i wont be able to afford the FEED hood i've had my eye on. *SIGH* ah well, i'll work something out.

Hmm... you could always sell your stockers for ~$275 - 400. That'll help somewhat.

Personally for multi-spoke rims on a MB I really like MaxCooper's se37k's:


I used to have se37a's in bronze when I had my MB, but that was more due to that particular set being f.s. at a decent price. I really didn't like bronze on MB (I thought it clashed), but i never washed the rims which made them darker

For a 5-spoke, I would stick to silver, or maybe polished IF the spokes are flat enough (like David Hayes' RoJa f5's or poorboyee's hre-something's).

Also, I used to have a KS cf hood while everything else was stock.... it kinda seemed out of place. I would get rims before a hood, esp. since winter/rain season is here. You might be able to put off buying a vented hood until late spring.

Just my op.

Thanks, for the input. I don't think that i want to sell my stock rims; i'd like to have them just incase i get a flat on the tires i purchased Also, i was thinking about getting a KS hood on my car as well since the VIS knock-off is about $600 BUT i don't think it'll look right with the lines of my car (I'm keeping the body stock until i get in a better finacial situation, i used to own a bodykit on another car and fiberglass repairs=$$$). We'll see what happens !!!
