I usually just throw them away but I bought an s13 as a daily now and I want to throw some interesting hubcaps on it. I guess any 15in Nissan will work but does anybody know of any that look particularly "good" if you can call it that. Once you start spending money on a car its hard to stop so this one I'm not even going to start, minus this.

Thanks

hubcaps?? are you serious?

If you have steelies why don't you just pick up some SE alloys?

Because thats not what I'm trying to do.

I have steelies with good tires and this is a daily. I have money in something else. Is this hard to understand? I dont care if you think its ugly.

I'm just rockin' my steelies as is. Knda works on my car though... keeping it champagne with black accents. Most hubs look weak, but if you want to keep it OEM looking nissan had a set of hubcaps that looked like the teardrop alloys.

Something about the nature of this thread reeks of "troll," but nothing has come about to exactly warrant closing it yet.

It's not hard to understand that you have money in something else, but you can pick a set of alloys for like $125. If you don't care if it's ugly why even get hubcaps?

I guess what I don't understand is why waste money on hubcaps....that will probably fly off one day :keke:

The reason I dont post here much is basically summed in the response I got.

I had a black kouki with an sr and the works.....I used to care...I used to post up.

^Those are actually hot shit. I think I'm buying them, thanks for the link. I'm really surprised how serious everybody on this forum is.

Now I have a 91 Galant VR-4 with everything possible done to it. 450 hp, Volks, built motor/tranny, Evo interior, etc etc and so I bought another 240 as a daily(a stock s13 coupe with coilovers and sway bars) and I want to keep it clean and stock looking. I bought a house last month and I dont want to spend money on EVERY car I own. I like the hubcap look since it matches and nobody would suspect the car has 2k in suspension.

But lock it up, I'm a troll. You got me.

Yes.

I just want to drive the s13 to work since my other car vastly out performs it in every category.

You bought 2k in suspension for a DD, do you have to drive up/down a mountain to get to work? Thing is dude, you probably could have searched the net using your favorite search engine and found hubcaps. Btw besides Phil's post I would say none of the previous posts were serious, but what would you expect coming from a group of guys from all over the world looking for a challenging question or insightful tech write-up and you ask about hubcaps? Think about it.....

You sound like Nepoleon Dynomite.

These are SICK! You can look like Yuri or someone, but not really, or even a little.

There should never be a thread on Zilvia about hubcaps. How could you build a car like you described, but need help finding/choosing fuckin hubcaps?

Jesus Christ. I bought the car with the suspension. I have no money in it and I want to keep it like that.


Insightful tech discussion? Thats a seperate section altogether thats why I didnt ask it there. Since there was little information about what I wanted to know, I made a thread.


Mods can delete this now. Fuck Zilvia. Ban me.

Take a deep breath, push yourself away from the computer, and calm down. :D

Don't let the internet get you so upset.

I will lock this at your request, but there is no need for deleting or banning.

Enjoy your cars.
