Where did you find the paint?

 

[Lil Blue Versa]

i ordered blue spray paint from duplicolor. its heat resistant and its designed for brake calipers, rotors, etc. cost more in shipping than the paint lol

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

That will look awesome!
They don't sell duplicolor where you live?
I bought the kit with the paintbrush, that way I did not actually have to remove the calipers. I think with the spray can they recommend you remove them first. Also be sure to clean them
And post pictures when your done everything

 

[Lil Blue Versa]

yep ill have to remove them and spray but i think it will be fine. and they dont have the paint brush kit in blue.. so i got spray. anyone know what size tires i can use on 17x7 rims? i plan on lowering it and i was told 215/45/17 would fit fine but they are pricey... any pointers?

 

[blindsnyper]

i just put 225/45-17 on my V, about 1/2" taller and wider than 215/45-17

 

[Hschlick84]

I recommend going with 215/45/17, that's what I'm using.

 

[Atx_Versa]

215/45/17 had them for almost a year now and I think they're a great fit...im looking to upsize a little to 225's like bS.

That blue on white is just gonna look hottness!!

 

[AusTiida]

Awesome bro! Can't wait to see some photo's!

I was going to do the white on blue like my old car was, but they are waaaaay to hard to keep clean for this lazy bastard

 

[blindsnyper]

i wanted wider. so i had to either get slightly taller or go with a 235 wide, but that size wouldnt work on a 7 wide wheel.

 

[Hschlick84]

Why do you want tires/wheels that wide?

 

[blindsnyper]

wider=more grip

 

[Lil Blue Versa]

alright heres a story, my family was going out to joes crab shack so i dropped my car off at pep boys with rims in the back (2 in trunk and 2 in back seat). they told me 2 hours and it would be good to go, that they had the tires and the only problem is i might need to buy some tuner lugs. i come back after eating crab cakes and cheese sticks to find that not only had my rims not been put on, my car hadn't moved parking places. i walk in pissed trying to figure out why they are failing at their business and they tell me that they can only find 1 of the 4 tires they supposedly had. i left them my cell number before i went to joe's and told them to call if anything came up. so i took my keys and stormed off. my rims were in plain view of anyone who came by for over 2 hours so i consider myself (and they're physical being) lucky that they were there upon my return. so tomorrow im going to ken towerys to have a set of tires put on for some crazy labor day special. yesterday = FML.

 

[Lil Blue Versa]
