Any pics of these rims, I don't have any pics of S12s. I think someone on this board has them on his coupe, but I might be thinking of a different car the wheels are off of.

The black hatchback is the one i'm talkin about. I like the look. I think if those rims were painted black on the inside and had a polished lip, i think they would look hot with minimal investment. I know its cheesy, but its cheaper than buyin some SSR's or some old school enkeis

dude, enkei's and rikens are cheap. Just gotta do a little junkyard hunting.
i bought 2 rikens and 2 enkei mesh from the junk yard and i paid 156 bucks for all 4 of them. I dont think thats too much at all. Plus all of them have a 2+ inch lip :D
Hit the junkyards often, you never know what you'll find.
I'm a wheel whore so im always there.....ha, i guess that wold make me a junkyard troll:p

Does anybody think the combination of the Mesh "UNDEEP" rims on a s13 look good? My plan was to just leave the lip polished and paint the inner wheel black. Comments anybody?

i say it's all up to you man... it's your car, so as far as looks goes, it shall be built and modded with your own tastebuds... so...:D hey if you have a sweet tooth for the mesh, then go for it... just don't regret anything... or, lets hope you don't...

thats my car... the black fastback. they cost me around $75 a pair. remember although they have no lip, they do have a lower offset than stock. meaning more clearance for the coilover and allows more camber adjustment. i love 'em. just can't find the other pair :mad:

I know the rims aren't deep at all, thats ok. I'm using them for when I go auto crossing. I don't want to mess up my 91-93 factories. I do want to paint the inside. The downer though, i have the rims, but only two of them are any good. I"m a little ****ed but what can i say, they were free
Sweet car man
love the sig.

i was thinking about painting them too, but after i got them all nice and clean, i just left them the way they are. i think they look a lot nicer in person and don't need to be painted, but it's all good if u want to. post some pics if/when you paint them. i'd really like to see them...maybe ill decide to paint mine also. :)

Whoa weirdness. Strange how pictures get around the web so fast. I hope they photoshopper isn't mocking my car. MY CAR JUST HAS MISMATCHING WHEELS FOR GODSAKES!!!! Oh and BTW I found the other two wheels yesterday, but they aren't on yet. I still need to get the correct lug nuts for them and tires.

Here is where i found it 240Degrees http://chop-it-up.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=2&pid=421 . Its a Photo-chop site my friend and i owned, it is closing down soon though. I uploaded it to our gallery on the site, and no i dont think he was mocking your car--he just wanted to chop it since the one i did was already there.

i may be drunk but in the first pic of the black car with stock steelies and rear mesh wheels, that car looks a lot like an opel Gt, i never thought they looked alike untill now
my opinion, screw the mesh, rock 4 black steelies, i think it would look better

eh ive driven on steels for a while. it's not that great. the +40 offset kills it. The wheel comes TOOOOOOO close to the coilover. the s12 mesh fits oh so much nicer. Maybe you have to see the difference in person. You would probably agree with the mesh over the steels.
