Meek Mill | Aston Martin Rapide

Meek Mill from Maybach Music Group just customized his Aston Martin Rapide. He painted the entire car flat black and gold plated all the trim. To top it all off, he ordered a set of custom built 24kt gold plated Forgiato wheels. He went with the concave multispoke Disegno-ECL wheel which is a great choice.

I love the contrast between the dull flat black paint and the shiny gold trim on the car. Cant wait to see what other cars he adds to his fleet.

I wish more rappers would back up their music by actually going hard on customizing their cars.

Frank Walker | Fisker Karma on 24″ Asantis

frank walker, fisker, karma, asanti, wheels, 24

Even though the new Fisker Karma has had its fair share of issues, Dallas Cowboy DB, Frank Walker, wasn’t scared to be the first to mount up some plus-sized shoes and stunt hard for the green team. The wheels are 24″ Asanti AF176 and they’re properly painted to match the exterior of Frank’s all-electric ride. One of the best things about the Fisker Karma is the huge wheel well which holds a 24″ wheel with no problem at all. I think this should be the move for most manufacturers in the near future.

Ray Rice | White Mercedes Benz CLS

This is Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens with his new CLS. The car was customized by No Limit in Baltimore, MD. They went with a set of 22″ staggered Vossen Wheels . I think these wheels were a great choice because they are sporty and concave and that really matches the CLS.

The only thing I would have changed was possibly going all black or all white – the brushed and black two tone finish on the wheels doesnt really match the white CLS too much.

T-Pain | Rolls Royce Ghost on Asantis

T-Pain is one of the few rappers who actually thinks logically when it comes to choosing rims on his car. It might be because he owns his own custom shop in Atlanta, GA called Auto Extremes and knows all of the head aches that come with custom oversized rims. He tends to be very conservative with his wheel choices as you can see above.

Here is his 2011 Rolls Royce Ghost sitting on a set of 22″ Asanti wheels. He could have easily put a set of 24s on this car but decided to go more conservative. Even though the paint scheme and thick 5 spoke design looks good on this car, it is still a fail in our eyes.

You might get a smoother ride with the smaller rims but you dont get any points on our website – you might as well have kept the stock wheels!

Kendall Jenner Black Range Rover

Kendall Jenner is following the foot steps of her sister Kim Kardashian. Kendall just customized her black Range Rover Sport at Calabasas Luxury Motorcars. The car is staggered on Forgiato Concavo wheels, painted all gloss black.

Great choice of wheels for this Range, a 10 spoke wheel is a really good look. If you want to see more of this car, tune into E! where you can see her driving it around on Keeping up with the Kardashians.

Plies | Maserati Quattroporte

Rapper, Plies, has a Maserati Quattroporte that was painted a custom metallic burgundy paint. He had his 22″ Forgiato Inferno wheels color matched to the car. Would have liked to see him color match the brakes as well, the red brembos really clash right next to the burgundy paint.

All the customization on the car was done by Ultimate Audio in South Carolina. The custom audio is on point in the trunk and the stance is at the right height.

Eric Berry’s Black Tahoe on 26s

Eric Berry, the former Tennessee Volunteer, is now playing safety for the Kansas City Chiefs. Here he is standing infront of his black Chevy Tahoe with 26″ Giovanna Dalar 6V wheels with a matte black and machined two tone finish.

Like most of the Chiefs, he got his car customized by Chad Dearth at KC Trends in Overland Park, KS. The wheels have a very aggressive fitment of 26×10.5 all around. I think the 25 series tires are too thin for such a heavy car. I also think the 6 thin spokes on the wheel don’t really match the car.

Great fitment but wrong choice of wheels in my opinion.

Justin Bieber’s Cadillac CTS-V aka Batmobile

 

This is Justin Bieber’s matte black Cadillac CTS-V coupe customized by West Coast Customs. These pictures were taken at SEMA 2011 by GT Spirit. The car has suicide doors and is wrapped in matte black vinyl. It also has a custom audio system that is no joke. It is sitting on 20″ matte black Asanti wheels which look really good on this coupe.

I was tempted to give this car a good rating but you can not take it seriously for two reasons. 1) It is a 17 year olds car. 2) It has batman logos all over and is batmobile themed.

50 Cent’s Blue Range Rover

 

This is 50 Cent’s Custom Blue Range Rover that was customized by Roadstarr Motorsports in Los Angeles. The car was painted a custom electric blue and really stands out from any other Range Rover in the streets. The car is equipped with 24″ Forgiato Sedici wheels that are custom painted chrome and blue. The tire size is 295/25/24 all around.

Love the color choice and the choice of wheels, both style and size. The only comment on this car that I have is that I wish they would have went with a nice chrome grille to match with the rest of the car. He could have put one of the new Forigato grilles or even a chrome Strut grille would have looked awesome. It would be even nicer if the grille was painted chrome with some color matched blue paint on it.

Other than the grille, this is a near perfect build on a Range.

Kim Kardashian | Custom White Ferrari 458 Italia

white ferrari 458

 

Kim Kardashian, the reigning queen of custom cars, does it again. With the help of Jack and George at Platinum Motorsports in Los Angeles, she has one of the hottest whips in L.A. This white Ferrari 458 has 21″ and 22″ monoblock Agetro M140 wheels. The monoblock wheels are light weight and forged, so she wont be losing any performance in this white Ferrari 458.

The wheels seem to be powdercoated a matte gun metal color. This car is just not a pretty girl’s ride, this car is a beast! After driving Reggie Bush’s Ferrari F430 for a long time, I am sure she will be happy to call this white Ferrari 458 her own now.

Very nice car, another amazing car created by Platinum Motorsports for Kim Kardashian.
