Wheels to match GT Dark Chrome

[4WDlifeform]

Did u order wheels and one came out bent. I noticed on my set two when I was balancing the Wheels and tires one of my rear is off too. Did u get it replaced with Jason

The OEM wheel is the bent wheel, NOT the new ones!!

I live the black chrome on my car so when it wss time to wheel shop I wanted something that would compliment it.

Vertini has a black chrome option (I forget what they call it) that matches perfectly.

Perfect fitment. Wheels and tire specs? Any rubbing?

AWD or rwd?

RWD. I had a light rubbing once, about 8 months ago. At the time my car was loaded down with 5 passengers and a 50lb bag of dog food. I went over a RR track too fast and one of the rear tires left some tire shine on the inner fender lip.

Keep in mind, not only are my tires wider than stock, they're also taller.

Installed! It was late, and weather suddenly turned to storms, so I'll get better photos up another day. But, here is some comments and pics I can provide for now.

The wheels fit perfect, Jason at GetYourWheels.com hit it spot on. The rear wheel has a bit more of a dish to it, which I think looks awesome. I noticed the lug nuts stick out a bit further in the rear wheels, but not a big deal. Wrapped them with the Falken Ziex ZE 950 A/S. Good looking tire, pretty similar to the Bridgestones.

Here's some pics. (Don't mind the floating Camaro.. she's getting gears! All the cars getting some love this week!)

Here are some better pictures. Finally got a nice day to wash the car and take it out:

I only recently found out car wrapping is a thing. Can it be unwrapped later, and will the underlying paint be pristine?

Yes, in theory. If you wrap a Stinger with paint adhesion issues, then pull the wrap off, I can see how it might happen that some original paint could come off with the wrap. But if your paint is fine, there should be no problem. It's like removing PPF near the end of its lifespan, and replacing it with new. The paint would be like new underneath. (If there is some other consideration/complication that I am missing, it's time for those with greater experience to chime in now …)

I've been toying with the idea of a Federation Orange wrap ever since I learned about wrapping on this forum last summer.

 

[Pnbnationsbest]

Pristine, no. However it will be in like new condition.

What is the life span of wrap if you don't mind? Assuming the car is garaged most of the time.

A high quality wrap should give 5-7 years max. I believe.

Thanks.

What does it look like when it starts breaking down. Random peeling and such?

 

[Pnbnationsbest]

No it fades and starts to look old.
