#1 looks phat! :guitar:

Definitely No. 2 dude,
Simple but a really strong look, much easier to keep clean than the others and easier to polish if you're into that kind of thing.
All rather rice though, I say get some Volks and call it a day :p
God bless

well these are all like $600 for a set with tires on them.. the #2 ones are like $550.. and out of the ones they had on sale these were the best looking ones.. b/c i'm not trying to spend like $1000 on rims..

numero uno.....i would get mesh rims for our ride , they look clean on it

One. I love dish rims.

Hey that 3rd wheel looks like mine!

1* go the dish, very drift style 8-)

I went with #2 based on the lack of fake bolts and the clean, simple look. They're all nice though, I don't think any of them are outlandish.
Myself, I think I'll stick to 15's for a while...tires are a huge wear item for me :-D The camber on my S12 and the lack thereof on my Z could make a nice rotation path though!

The first ones are ugly and so I guess alot of you have no taste lol

Nemisisdate not saved · #15

Hmmmm, tough decision.... I would go with whichever one is lighter in weight. Just cuz its aluminum doesn't mean its light. There are 17" rims that weigh 25Lbs each and there are 17" rims that weigh 12Lbs each. I go for function first. But thats just me. No I didn't vote.

#2. The angular '80s lines of the S12 go best with simple rim designs IMHO.

no3 8-)

number 3

Joel07date not saved · #19

#3, and I wanna know where you're getting these for $600 with tires!!!! Let me in on somma that!!! :laugh:

I like #1 a lot too, that's a tough decision, but I definetly like the dish, but I've always been a sucker for BBS style...

Joel07date not saved · #20

So what's up Henge? Where'd you get a deal for $600 with the tires? Is it a friend of a friend discount or can we all get the same deal? I might have to get me some purty wheels too! :laugh:

hengedate not saved · #21

Joel07date not saved · #22

Booooo yah! Thanks dude! Guess I should get the car running before I get some rims though... :violin:

Radracer_Sdate not saved · #23
