*picture request* nismo lms

[s15Irl]

Looking for pictures of s15s particularly blue ones with a set of nismo lm gt2..
Got my hands on a set of these needing a refurb. Looking for colour inspiration, thinking along the lines of grafite or gun metal!

Thanks :thumbs:

Not what you wanted i know but here is a pewter one with standard lmgt2's

And i have just had the wheels refurbished in mat black, but i don't have pictures yet as i need new tyres before i fit the wheels to the car. Will get a picture up as soon as they are on the car though.

Exactly what im looking for, thanks! What profile tyre have you? They look quite chunky, id need that for the roads round my place! What did you do with polished lip? Ive done the lips on mine just curious to see how you went about it?

 

[TomK]

The lips were spreyed mat black as well, I got some new nismo decals to put on them the only thing I'm missing is the centre caps. The wheels are in storage at the moment till I get new tyres and can't remember the profile off the top of my head will so have to get back to you on that.

Cool thanks for the info.
I only have 3 centre caps but i have the little rays dust caps! Quite cool! Will be getting new decals as soon as there sprayed up..

Bought nismo decals off of eBay, aplied them over the weekend. My advise, avoid eBay, utter ****.

I'm gonna see about getting mook from skewer to make me some.

The tyre sizes were 225/45 and 245/45.

Ah no.. I was gonna pick up a set on e bay.. were they from Malaysia or the states? Maybe ill just have them made so.. There was only 2 e bay sellers I could find with the gt2 decals, lots of gt4 ones :|
Jeez 245 is wide, what width are your wheels? the 45 profile looks well. mine are 50 might change down to 45 once I've worn them out!

The decals i bought were more modern nismo sign not the authentic LMGT2 ones, so if you bought those they could well be fine.

My wheels are 8 inch wide at the front and 9 inch wide at the back. I'm not really into the whole 'scene' thing. I bought wider wheels to fit wider tyres to have more grip, not to fit tyres designed to fit a smaller rim to 'look good'. But if you were intending on running seriously low there's no way you could run this tyre/wheel combo without a roll to the arch or a stretched tyre.
