Rims..what looks good?

Swifty1638 · 05-13-2005

I am mixed on what to get my car. It's that black cherry color, and I LOVE 6-spoke rims. I just don't know what color to go with, or what rim? I like the r-1 rims that modified mag have on their project 2g dsm, but I cannot find them. I also want to hear your opinions on rims, and what everyone thinks looks good. I think a nice drop and rims look good on these cars, and no kits, but that's my opinion. What does everyone else run here? Any pics I'd like to see. also, I know this is not the f/s thread, but if anyone has a set they don't want, or could get rid of, PM me..

Personally, I'd go with a black rim with that color of a car. I think it'd look sweet

Swifty1638 · 05-13-2005

sorry, but I don't really like them. I am going for 17's..minimum. I'd like 18's, but I'd take 17. I perfer simpler-looking 6-spoke rims too..adr gt, or the r-1's. I like that stuff..but, I am still looking. The tires on my car are beyond bald, so I break all 4 wheels loose, like tonight..

i got some adr rimms on tires that i have for sale. ill post a pic in a sec.

xluciusx · 05-13-2005

ok well I forgot I don't have 50 posts yet which means I can post pics. Give me an email addy and I'll send you a shot. That have some scratches but the price would be right, plus they have some awesome tires that were barely used.

If you are looking for some cool 6 spoke wheels that aren't that expensive. I personally really like these two.

The Tenzo R Mean 6 in black with polished MIRROR (not many cheaper companies offer mirror lips which are what high end wheels do)

Otherwise, the other one that I think is decently nice is the Motegi DP6

If you're asking that question and it's directed to me...

www.tenzoracingsports.com

and

www.motegiracing.com

I can get you the Motegi's , I have no distributor for the TenzoR's. Tenzo has a pretty rice-a-ronie reputation, but who cares, their new knock off line of wheels looks pretty awesome, especially with the real mirror polished lips.

Swifty1638 · 05-14-2005

how much could you get those motegis for? And, what other colors are they?

Swifty1638 · 05-15-2005

oh, lucious, I got the email, but for some reason, I cannot get the pic to be opened, or viewed..

Wrong.
Gun metal or flat black on the wild cherry DSM.

Swifty1638 · 05-18-2005

Ok, I looked through the latest superstreet, and found a few rims I liked. I know that gunmetal or bronze would look good..I am leaning towards bronze. I know white would kinda stick out, and silver..well, everyone has silver.

These are some noted rims I liked, but some are rather hard to find..
buddyclub p-1 racing II plus
Enkei RSV
Rota torque

raze r-74, and r-20

Just an FYI. Work wheels = $$$

check those out.

Swifty1638 · 05-29-2005

lucius, why are you selling those wheels? you kinda NEED those wheels to keep from draggin anymore! What are you goin to replace them with?

I figured out, that out of every color a rim could come with..white's too flashy, black isn't noticed enough, and doesn't work too well with my color (imo) so I am shooting for bronze wheels. not gunmetal..bronze. I want some 6-spoke bronze wheels. te-37s would be nice, but frankly, I owe too much on all my tools and the car to spend on that. I want some simple 6-spoke wheels..raze 74s, or even those work wheels, or the enkei rsv..whatever I posted in that list..but in bronze. Can anyone get deals on rims? even if it's just rims, and not tires..I got deals on tires, so all I really need is rims..

Raze-74

Gn+ I really like these rims, but too much to spend on them..anyone get a deal for cheaper? Or, know anyone selling a set, in bronze?
http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=1915
also like these..

Remember, I am looking for bronze, so I am still open for ideas. Also, when looking at offset, what should it be around for a 7 inch wide wheel..what about 7.5? I am curious as to what will fit, and fill up the wheel well nicely..

I'd say the Raze look cool.
