advans · 06-02-2014, 06:49 AM

some new crappy "artistic bs" Iphone pics with filters....

Powder coated my ZCPs Alpine White, to match my interior trims. Got it done over at Motorcepts (Thanks Leo and John) and had it installed over at Intrac Wheels.

Also....did a MS wheel stud conversion with some Muteki Lugs, (Thanks to Brian at EAS).

before the stud conversion...

some older pics...

hope you enjoyed my nice♥rack

thanks man. I'm trying to accomplish the RC car look with the white wheels

tightie · 06-02-2014, 01:06 PM

i like it.

webninja · 06-02-2014, 01:13 PM

I'm getting my ZCPs powerdercoated a charcoal grey, but now I'm wondering how alpine white ZCPs would look on an alpine white E90. Cleaning them though...

Kwando · 06-02-2014, 01:16 PM

Cool. Have fun cleaning them lol

1SerieStud · 06-02-2014, 01:35 PM

Great looking car...wondering what type of roof rack that is? Also, for your corona rings, what bulbs are you using? I've been thinking about going with 3000K temp bulbs for the yellow fog lamp look, which tends to look great on black cars, as opposed to doing what everybody else is doing in trying to go all white and match the new corona rings on late models.

PhillyNate · 06-02-2014, 01:53 PM

I can't possibly imagine keeping Alpine White wheels clean on this car. Look pretty good though.

Route 16 · 06-02-2014, 02:05 PM

that's pretty cool
how much time do you have to cleaning the wheels?

Amirsm3 · 06-02-2014, 02:10 PM

Some quality wheel protectant and slightly more frequent wheel washes will keep them looking fresh.

advans · 06-02-2014, 02:18 PM

Thanks guys. It's impossible to keep them clean. I pretty much clean them everytime I 'm home, before it builds up. I tried putting wheel wax on it, but you can never tell what you wiped on and off, since it's white. But...a lot of attention and thumbs up for white wheels.

As for the angel eyes, i'm using the PIAA ION Yellow set, best non LED version out there. I've tried all the other brands, Nokya, HOEN, GP Thunder, etc. nothing beats the color of the ION Yellow.

to the DB that pointed out the moustache. yes, it was for the show. Trying to come up with something fun other than the ye'old carbon fiber errthang.

1SerieStud · 06-02-2014, 03:42 PM

Thank you! Any head-on shots with the angel eyes on? I'd really appreciate it, since my car is also black, it will give me a good idea of what it would look like!

rAdzM · 06-02-2014, 03:55 PM

i was expecting a different kind of rack

I just recently, switched my brake pads to Akebono Euro Ceramics, and I'm in awe with how little brake dust there is. With the OEM pads, I had build up after 150miles. But with the akebono, it's been 2000miles and very little build up of brake dust.

It's so clean, I have water spots from my wash two weeks ago..

kwike92 · 06-02-2014, 05:58 PM

yeah those white ZCPs look pretty damn good...

hmm, i've had problems previously with aftermarket brake pads.

I had the EBC Green Stuff on my C320 Renntech and Hawk on my C55. On the EBC Green Stuff, there was crappy brake squeel for maybe 5-600 first miles, and both the Hawk and EBC had bad stopping power compared to the OEM stuff, and I'm assuming because the oem stuff is softer, better stopping power???

If you say its not as noticeable difference in stopping, I'll look into the Akebono!

feeling the white wheels OP, bet they are fun to clean
