Finally new paint- Silver it is!

Your options are vastly more abundant if you do not lower it.

I cannot speak about the rears fitting. I have never tried to run an 8" wide rim, but with my 7" wide rims, I seem to have plenty of room.

Thanks for all the nice compliments. Will upload more pics soon. As for tire rub... i dont get any up front. In the rear i use to, but i rolled the fender lip and now it clears just fine. I've seen other people with these wheels run 225/50/16. If you do the math on that its a little too big in diameter than OEM. So i went with 225/45/16. The selection is a bit smaller, but you can still find great tires in that size.

Here are a few more pics. The sun was at a weird angle, so i couldn't get some of the metallic to show. But here you can see the rear and some of what i did up front.

Great looking car - is it Datsun silver. If not what silver did you use?

thanks all. btw, it is not a specific Datsun silver. i put my trust in the shop and told them i wanted a good simple silver that i wont get tired of in years to come. i'd still like to get legit chrome bumpers one day, but for now this will do. oh and new emblems would be nice.
