H3 Wheels

[Michro]

So I'm debating on one of two scenarios. Either I will paint my H3x wheels black then eventually get 35's, or I will buy a used set of stock 16's and paint those black to use with bigger tires. Has anyone seen H3x weeks painted black? I wonder how they'd look.

Are the H3X wheels 18"? If so, you'd probably be better off with a set of 16" for offroading to better allow the sidewalls to flex.

I agree with Alex. You'll have a lot more options with 16" rims as well.

i would just ditch the 18 and stay with 16. IMO it looks better on 16s, more tire options and cheaper.

Keep the 18's for street use cause they are pretty fashy and rare. Then use the 16's for off roading.

 

[Michro]

Yeah I'm thinking the same. Although I did find these pics. Doesn't look awful, but I think I'll buy some 16 stock wheels from Craigslist.

^That actually looks better then I thought it would.

Same here, and all he did was plastidip.

I like it

Here's another but with some very rare H3x wheels. They look like aftermarket, but I verified they are indeed H3

 

[cdarveaux]

Those are OEM?! Never seen those before

There not H3X wheels but they are a GM Accessories 18" wheel. There was three different styles available in 18's and two in available 20's. They are same width and back spacing as the OEM wheels but were not factory equipment, they were either installed by the dealer or purchased from GM Accessories line.

Oh thanks for the info, the dude didn't even know his own wheels. Haha

Those X wheels look sweet, in black of course. Im thinking of doing the Plastidip on mine too. For that stuff do you need to do any surface prep like with bedliner material? I tried to use the underbody coating (not the best idea) so that I'll just keep for touching up the chassis area that has some rust spots.

Take a look on YouTube, most people seem to spray it directly on top.
