Hey everyone! Hope your all doing well. Its been a little while since I’ve last posted on here. Recently I purchased another ST. The plan is to keep this one mainly stock although I’ve already upgraded the rmm to a Vibra-Technics fast road along with LED bulbs in headlamps and LED reverse bulbs rain guards and seat/cargo area covers with Husky all weather floor matts. It was listed for sale not too long ago on here. Loved my black one so much that I just had to have another one(orange is my fav color and this color combo was what I was looking for 6 years ago when I purchased my black one). Anyways looking to get some wheels for it. I know black will look awesome on this car but I would like to go a more uncommon route without making the car look like a clown car. Considering white or bronze possibly gold to bring out the gold metal IMG_5103.jpeg flake in the paint? Thoughts suggestions pics greatly appreciated. Hope you all have a great day and thanks in advance!!!

Yes, CONGRATS on the new addition! (I wish that I could afford, and have the parking space for another FiST!)

Anthracite also looks great on the Molten Orange (and Orange Spice) as well, albeit yes, more subdued and understated than the 'popping' wheel colors you are considering.

I wanted gold color wheels for my Magnetic, but to get the shade/tone I wanted would co$t insane coin, either having a set powder coated (~$110.00/wheel), or buying the Speedline or Braid wheels (for ~$450.00+ each) which already come in the darker (much less yellow, headed towards a light, less brown, bronze) gold shade I desire.

Gold would look amazing. If your brakes dust like mine white would be a terrible choice but also would look awesome. I dig your taste. Congrats on the new to you ride.
Thank you and yes at the moment the brake dust is horrible(gotta love motorcraft pads) will be upgrading to some better pads once these are done.

Thanks!!! Im definitely having a hard time finding the gold color I’m looking for which is along the lines of the tone you were describing that you like. That Anthracite color though. Looks like I may be going that route. Definitely more options in that color.

Considering these gold XXR 527’s from enjukuracing.com I’ve yet to ever order anything from them but it seems they’re IMG_5138.png IMG_5141.png the only ones with these in stock and also a reasonable price. I do understand they’re not the lightest wheel and unsprung weight does make a big difference ( I have 15x8 Konig Dekagrams from group buy on here that definitely showed me first hand difference) but were going for budget friendly and decent looks not racecar. Off topic man I wish we had the two door here!!!😍
