Yea... round rims are cool... I had some of those square ones, and it didn't work out too well.

they're very simalar to the ones on the s13 of gp sports. i know gp sports use alot of work rims. they're very simular to the work vs-kf just wider spokes. i dunno the price tag on those, but i know they're not cheap rims.

Whoops, my bad, yeah that is the S14 GP Sports car, sorry, had the S13 up on my computer at the time.
Tim '95 SE
The GP Sports S14 looks like it's got Veilside wheels on it (yes, they make (made?) wheels) -- or they could be one of the many variations of Volk Racing wheels (Versus, EINS, Rays Genome, etc) ...

Will 19" fit on a s14? and even 20"? would look wicked on air bags or juice... :cool:
Sure 19s and 20s will fit on an S14! What are airbags and juice, though? Is Juice Nitrous Oxide? Airbags... uh... underbody neons?? ...
John D One
02-11-2003, 05:57 AM
Juice... Hydraulics :D gotta sit that car on the floor, airbags... alternative to hydraulics :cool:

Trouble in this country, there are so many f*ckin speed bumps, you can't have the car too low all the time or you end up damaging the underside of your car! hydros... is a practical way around it
hahaha... that would be great. Beats taking off the wheels each time you want to raise/lower the car. :p What a hassle!
...not that I'd spend thousands of pounds (GBP, silly!) on that stuff, though. I'd rather pick up a good set of coilovers and scrape on big speedbumps. :) The cat-cover is worth the lowering!

andrew golt dish
veilside makes em
although alot of companies(work,volk(versus, eins,etc.)) make a similar wheel design

Yeah I like those rims too. What about the price? What offsets do they come in? Does Veilside still sell them? (Yes, I know I could just talk to them....I'm sick and lazy....so sue me like that guy in the other post:p )

The wheels on the GP Sports cars are SSR wheels
The GP Sports demo cars use a variety of wheel brands, including SSR, Veilside, Work, and Kei Office.

oh well, I guess I'll just have to settle for my lowly Nismo GT-2's.. :D

i don't see how the buddy clubs are any sweeter than the kosei's, considering they use the same cast and everything.
actually, buddy clubs suck ass because of the price.

Actually, I was screwing around and those aren't SUV wheels, according to the site I was dicking around on those are maxima wheels... It was www.aaarims.com, they have factory wheels for most cars.

Shwing!!!
I've been dreaming about getting a set of those suckers since they first came out.
sexy!:eek:
I may have some available in 17x7 17x8 4-lug gunmetal. Have to check on pricing. No dreamers.
tnord
02-14-2003, 11:15 AM
so a polished lip is worth over $300/wheel to you? is this a joke?
if you look at the P1 Racing's, not the P1 Racing II's, they are the EXACT same as the wheels i have, yet are over $100/wheel more.
bLiNg bLiNg yO!

that was exactly my point... I was making fun of the JDM Blingyness (my word.. you can't have it!) of the "Buddy Club" wheels...
Never said those wheels were worth it, but they are pretty sweet none the less

bLiNg bLiNg yO! No, but the QF forged line is. Who cares if the Kosei's are cheaper if they are unavailable. Instead of slamming people for wanting Buddy Club P1's because you got your K1's cheap, maybe you should take it as a compliment that people like your wheels and that you got a badass deal on them. The other thing is that some people want to run width>8" wheel.

The wheels on EvilS14's car are Racing Hart C5's or a copy of the Racing Hart C5's (there are a lot of copies out there).
Koseis are still available, even in 4-lug, you just have to ask nicely :) . You can even get 16 or 17x8.5's. They're a little more expensive than they were, but not much, and still far cheaper than Buddy Club.
