1M Conversion Wheel Poll!! Need your help!
So I'm at the point where I need to get my wheels ordered for my 1M conversion... I will be going with a square 18x9.5 ET22 setup with either 265 or 275 tires depending on fitment.
Here's the car as it stands now... I'm between 4 wheel options; Option #1 - VMR V703 in Pacific Blue (wifey's 1st choice) Wheel shown is not the V703, it's the only sample picture of Pacific Blue available. Option #2 - VMR V703 in Sunken Treasure (don't mind my quicky photoshop skills, ha) Option #3 - VMR V703 in Rally Orange (Hankook will like this!) Option #4 - VMR V703 in Textured Black Let me know what you all think!

LittleMonster_III > I'll take option "E".
#1 > Get a base color you can actually resell if you get tired of the style....then... #2 > Plasti-dip them whatever color you want All those colors and-then-some, can be achieved with dip inexpensively. It also protects the wheel (win-win). If you're skeptical about the finish, don't be -- it's legit. I also saw first-hand their new gloss finish, and let me tell ya, it's pretty amazing. Anyways, I'm not affiliated with those guys. Been working with the product now for a few months and the results are bad-ass. https://www.dipyourcar.com/Dip-Pearls/ |

run a wider wheel in the rear. with ET 22 you should have a 10-10.5 rear wheel. Run a 265/285 or a 265/275 depending on brand.
All of your wheel color combos will look cool. I think you cant go wrong with any of them. |

I really would like to keep a square setup... Any suggestions on an offset to run a 265 or 275 all the way around?

Your tint has a reflective blue hue to it, keep that theme rolling with the blue wheels. I dig it.

I have flat black on my car and I say if you're going to get black get gloss. Flat black just looks like spray paint to me. Out of these colors I would get sunken treasure
