Those deep dish rims turned out nice... they really suit the car.....

For color I'd do something different maybe a nice light blue.... something unique that no ones going to copy!

Hah Mexican Low Rider.... yeah OK I'll give you that one but I'm still liking them I reckon lupinechaos could probably trim them a little and reduce the width so they are more functionality but overall very unique......

What is the point of how high it rides? Remember if it is going to be a moving car, the COG is way too high. Hahah, mexican lowrider, its your car, make it work. You can always sand down the rims from the other side to make the deep dishes fit better. I gotta get my camera fixed All of my projects are updated but no camera.

well since it appears he just flipped his wheels around backwards like i did on my gymkhana project, he wont be able to lower the car or body at all. it just wont turn. i highly doubt it turns now with out rubbing those stick out sooo wide.

If he picks up another set of the GT-R rims he can do the proper deep dish conversion and then they'll work just fine!

I think it looks nice but pictures don't do it justice, its hard to see anything really besides the car.

the deep dishes stick out waaay too far, the car ride height is...meh, could be better. and the car is not called an r35. no matter what you think, it's not an r35. just nissan and GTR. no "skyline" no "r35" if they actually give it a "r" name, it'll be r37 because it uses the same engine as the g37, just with the extra power adders.

thank you for being smart. im so sick of hearing oh nissan brough the skyline to the united states! No they didnt. The skyline is still illegal here. they produced a new super car and called it the GT-R to get some extra hype out of it to sell more.

thanks for that i thought that it was following the r-series like R32,R33 and, R34 sorry for that.

yeah i fixed hopefully, i used the wheels from the vette and did alittle something different again i hope that problem is fixed i think so but ill have snaps as soon as possible.

A metallic light blue would look nice, maybe even a red.

Just a GT-R, the Skyline name plate didn't carry over.
