Hey everyone! I've had an 05 AP for about a year and a half now, but I'm just finally getting around to making it look the way I want it to. One question for you guys. I just looked through this whole thread, but didn't see any examples of an AP with white wheels. Has anyone ever done this? I figured someone had to have done it at some point, but maybe the pics have just stopped working. I don't really like the way black wheels look on our cars, but I was thinking the white might be pretty nice.

Default AP wheels

I agree with you, black rims are not a good match. I saw pictures of an AP with white wheels and it was pretty eye catching. They were wide and low. I'm thinking about gun metal, mag blue or lime green. Be sure to post pix of whatever you decide!

Yeah I will. I'm not looking to get new wheels, so I'll probably just paint the stockies, but it won't be for a while though because I wouldn't want to do it until I put a drop on it, and I'm going to wait on that until spring. I did find one picture of the white wheels on an AP, but the car wasn't dropped so it looked weird.

I don't feel like there is any reason to post pics of it yet since all I've done are grills and fogs and some random interior stuff. Nothing anybody hasn't seen before.

Can you please put those pics up ASAP? I have been curious as well. I saw an AP with white stockies and I didnt like it, but from what I see from the cellphone pic it looks pretty nice..people said that two brighter colors on each other dont go well together.

FYI, white wheels are a _____ to maintain if you want to keep them..white haha.

Mostly likely gonna remove the CF hood and put my stock hood with a hood bra for a simple fresh look. Maybe peel the tint.

Very nice Awise and Antholiza. Hardly see any modded AP's around here. If i had one id go with the white wheels too. Unique but in a good way. Looks good!

Just a little update.
I got Eagle Eyes from a fellow SL member it was such a deal and they were like in SUPER DUPER GOOD CONDITION.
Maxxed out the rear camber.
Still working on the new tire fitment - Only future plans I have so far.

Some spacers in the rears would make the fitment a lot better IMO.

A little teaser, three months of wheel hunting and finally got a set

Teaser, hopefully wheels will be on this weekend:

Looks good jp. I like the gunmetal finish so much more than straight black on the AP.
