my last post explains well why I'd go with the VS'XX, they look flashy and balling, chrome lips and burning black face stick out like a sore thumb, but in a very good way...

but my modding style has always been subtlety and cleanliness, the perfect blend of OEM and AM, so for me to sell out right now and decide to go with something flashy that would contradict what I've been putting together for the last year and sabotage it in a sense doesn't make sense either....

I would say the T1S as it fits your car's style better. Subtle and original. If you want the flashy look, just like what other have said, get BBS man.
Just my 2cents.

true that the VS-XX are almost everywhere (coming from someone who is running them)
but the rims themselves are truly beautiful and will make your g35 look extremely good (not saying the T1S wont but just in a different style)

i regret having my VS-XX in matte black and wish i could save some money to repaint it gold but seeing that it seems like you purchased your HRE's and your widebody, i'd say go for the rim that isnt near the style of your HRE's not sure which style you went.. but im guessing it would be similar to the T1S? if so go for the VS-XX

I think the black ones look better, but I also think the huge lip makes the wheels look smaller than they actually are...Am I the only one who thinks so?

I definitely like the first ones better. Looks nicer, more shinier.

Since you want to go for a black and white theme.. Copy kchan and get black Work VS XX!

I got bored and did a shitty photoshop for you.

wow wicked photoshop Square, thanks, you even did the lighting right. thanks man, that helps a lot.

yea kchan I know what you mean, black car on gold wheels makes it pop like crazy in a good way you should get that done because black spokes are harder to see




the specs on the wheels would be, I would be doing both in negative offsets

VS XX --- 20x 10 front (4+ inch lip) 20x 12 rear (5+ inch lip)

T1S ------ 20x 9.5 front (3+ inch step lip) 20x 10.5 rear (4+ inch step lip)






fck this is really pickin my brain, one day I'm 100% decided on the T1S, then I wake up the next day and find another reason to go with the VS's.... I'm thinking I should just pull straws or something, I can't remember the last time I've been undecided on something like I am on this

well if you cant decide, let the price decide for yoU!
go for the cheaper one since their mostl likely equal in terms of which one you like more

if i could get the rims painted before the RS meet, that would be great! but i want to get some GT3 seats before that

If you want to be different go with the T1S with white pinstriping like you said!!! I think that would look pretty sick!!

b-dub I never brought the HRE's over the border, they were at point roberts for over a month while I waited for the kit to arrive so I can pick it all up at once.. I sent them back to the guy for a refund when I realized he couldnt come up with the rest of the kit. If you want I can get ahold of this guy again, thought he didn't come up with the kit, he was dead on with his wheel hookups... just PM me the specs of what HRE wheels you want and I'll talk to him about it, he got me a really good price.


yea the white pinstripe is a must... and yea I realized as ballin as the VSXX's are they are way too common, I've always done my car a bit differently than others I think I'll stick to that and go with the T1's... already talkin to my wheel guy about it =p
can't wait
