Not a big fan of black wheels on silver , But looks clean
the color is actually gunmetal iwth metal flake they arent black, you can get a little better look at the color from this picture, once again cell camera, its been raining for a few days down here.
quick question. How does the ride compare to stock? I'm thinking about some DF's as well.
The ride is pretty good, its def more stiff but thats also with 19s, its still pretty plush. I've installed 2 sets of DFs on GS already one on 93gs and this set. Been extremly happy with them both times, the stance is very even on both cars.
I Like the wheels, I def can also tell they are a dark (gunmetal) gray, and not black. I am a big fan of the G35 19's on our cars. Quick questions, did you spray those wheels your self? What kind of gun did you use? Anyways, they came our wheel, I like the look.

I sanded wheels down with 380 grit paper, then i edged primed them, then i sprayed silver wheel paint out of can made by duplicolor, waited for all of it to dry overnight, taped the lip off used gunmetal wheel paint out of can by duplicolor. Then used a cheap $15 dollar detail gun from Harbor Freight to Clear the wheels for clear i actually used legit stuff, some of House of Color Clear i had left over when my buddy painter pained my bike over the winter.

Thanks for the info, I am acutally doing this for some IS wheels that I picked up for my LS4. I am going to harbor frieght tomorrow (today) and picking up a similar one, I also have a little bit of PPG clearcoat left. As always advice is much appreciated.

Good luck, if i had to do it over, i would just scuff them up and paint them with no primer. Get some wax and grease remover and wipe them down after you sand them.
