Nice rims

[Bill Roberts]

Those are sugar sweet!. I like the lip factor...makes it look stylin' bling...just make sure you have some serious wheel locks to keep the attack factor at bay.

I like them alot!!!


My S-13 day finish for now... No More rust holes or spoiler!!!


Now, we both need to do Q45 Front brake mod. Can you get them redrilled (fronts) for 5 lug? I am thinking of having the Q45 rotors 4 lugged so we can kep our rims.

It's not Nokia... It's a Siemens S56 :p. I haven't owned a Nokia since my 8290 (which indeed sucked :D). That's my hand in that pic, wo0t!

[nokeone]

very nice...i like the polish work you did...:D

[aeontony]

Wow. Are these really Tomei?? I had no idea they made wheels, either.

They look _A_LOT_ like the wheels I used to have (Linea Racing). Well, if you powdercoat the spokes. I miss them =(

great lighting..;)

[goodjuan]

AHHHH!!:eek: SO YOU were the one who nabbed them!!! They were supposed to be mine I tell you! sigh....well congrats man...they look sick on the car....just as I thought they would....on the bright side, I DO have a 98 type X front clip in my garage:D

Congrats man! they look bitchin!

[kandyflip445]

Uh. IMO, I don't like them. I just don't like multi-piece rims. Congrats regardless though. I'm sure you're happy with them.

[FRpilot]

rims are ok. i just noticed they were tomei rims too. must have cost a lot? but nice car none the less.

[CoasTek240]

I hate you! i wanted those rims!... but they look great have fun with em.

[M.Piedlourde]

Heh, at first glance, I thought those were the old Fuchs wheels that Porsche used to put on their cars, way back in the day. Classic design. :)

[Got Sileighty?]

thanks for the comments guys. i got what ive always wanted, black, 5 spoke, polished lip. i didnt know tomei made wheels either, i even tried to google it, but no luck. my friend told me that oz racing made it for them, but im not sure how accurate that info is.

im gonna buy wheel locks tomorrow, or coastek and goodjuan may come for me :p any suggestions on wheel locks? are the autozone ones good enough?

oh yea they are 16x7 in front and 16x8 in back, both +29 offset.

theres no better lit place to take pictures in at 5-530am than a gas station :D

[Legacy]

Looks nice. What did you use to polish up the lip? I need to polish the lips on my Watanabes but don't know what the best stuff is to use.

[Got Sileighty?]

my friend and i used chrome polish on them. it only looks good from far away, when u get close its all oxidation, etc.

someday ill get it refinished, cuz it costs $100/wheel !!!:eek:
