Black wheels and PS2's for my ACR

SCSViper · Sep 17, 2011

Finally put the black wheels and the PS2's on the ACR. Had to wait for the PS2's since they were back ordered. Just a different look, not so "eye catching" as the red wheels. The PS'2 definitely drive differently. They take imperfections in the road better than the sport cups do. Here are a couple of pictures for comparison.

i like the red wheels

SCSViper · Sep 17, 2011

I do too, but just wanted a different look. I still have the red wheels with the sport cups on them and plan on changing them when I get tired of the current look.

Looks sharp, and much, much better!

I like the originality of the red, but couldn't deal with it on a regular basis

I guess its the bling in me but I like the red better. It just ties the whole package together. Maybe if you paint the brakes red and paint the SRT on the wheel spoke red it would bring just enough red back to your wheel wells. Just my .02 either way Id love to have that 1:33 ACR

wow, that looks really good.

Paint the calipers red and stay with the black wheels.

Either way, that is one BEAUTIFUL car my man!

I like that idea, and thank you fastandloud.

Black wheels do not break up the lines of the car, I think the black look 100X better.

I love the black, it looks fantastic. Opinions are definitely personal, but I'd take the black wheels and never look back!

Gorgeous car.

Camfab · Sep 18, 2011

I agree that it looks WAAAAAAAAAAY better with black wheels.

PDCjonny · Sep 18, 2011

That's a very special and unique car but the red wheels made it look a little clownish IMO.
Now it looks great.

I have #20 of 33 and was looking for a black rimmed tire to compare. Looks great. The red is an "eye-catcher" for sure but will keep for "show" only. Can't decide on which rims to get

I agree about the red wheels being eye-catchers. I went with the sidewinders that come standard on the ACR. Good luck finding your rims. I had a hard time choosing also, that is why I went with the OEM wheels.

what he said..the red calibers are not a bad idea!!

I like the black wheels, but your car is not just any Viper, the Laguna seca edition is special and the black wheels just takes something out of it. I vote for the red wheels so people wont think that your car is a fake or reproduction.

Austin · Sep 18, 2011

I agree that the red wheels are unique to the car, but the black wheels look best. I also say paint the calipers red. Here is a PS of red calipers and lowered to give you an idea of what it will look like.

I agree, but not in a bad way.

I do like that look. Thank you for doing that.

I know it is a special edition/look, but I still have the red wheels just for that reason. Not worried about some one thinking it is fake all I need to do is start it. :drive:

--You could also add red paint to the "SRT" logo on the wheel spoke.

--You could also add a red "VIPER" decal to one spoke.....in motion, at certain speeds, it makes a very cool 'blur' of the name
