Should I do this trade? (wheels)

[Steven_NISMO]

So I have these wheels on my s14 & I believe they are volk rays te37 replicas. I have them up to trade and someone offered me spec v wheels with brand new tires all around. I have spacers to bring them out so I'm aware of the offset of them. Here are pics of my wheels on my car and the wheels I was offered. I'm not sure how good these will look but let me know what you guys think.

I apologize if the pics are huge. I did this from my phone so I'm not sure how they came out.

Those are horrible!!!! your car, your wheels, you decide!!!!

[illvialuver]

[fliprayzin240sx]

Trade shitty sizing wheels for shittier stock wheels?

Ugly OEM wheels > ugly junk wheels.

What's that supposed to mean?

I got these replicas at a great price that's why I don't care to trade them right now. I wasn't sure if the ones I was offered would fit nicely and have a clean look with the spacers I'm currently using for these wheels I have now.

As if a 4 lug s14 kouki isn't bad enough... I'm now trying to imagine one with sentra pizza cutter wheels. Please 5lug swap it and put 16" se wheels on.

With a nice set of wheels, I don't see a problem with it being 4 lug. My plan was actually to do the 5 lug swap but when I found these 4 for a great price I just picked them up for the time being. Maybe later I will do it after I swap the motor. Not really needed right now if I have a decent set of wheels.

I kinda liked the ones I have now, but I thought maybe these would give it a cleaner look. I guess I'll just keep mines instead. I actually have 2" adapters in the rear and 1.25" in the front so these would be out I believe.

it means that most people are so stupid in florida they have to ask strangers on the internet if they should trade wheels. its simple which do you like better

Should have saved your money on those adapters and gotten 5 lug with some nice Z wheels at least

Either way I was going to do what I wanted to do. It doesn't hurt to want suggestions from other people. I did say let me know what you guys think. Nice to see this is the kinda feedback you get from someone thats been on this site for a while.

Also picked up the adapters for nearly what they're worth that's why my setup are what they are right now. But I understand your point.

[jesse_s13]

Keep your wheels.

They look better than the stock ones.

lol yeah sad but true . but most are not FL native , they are transplants!

[wh0aitznic0]

tire tread on yours looks to be running low

i see a new tire sticker on the spec v wheels

just for that, I'd take the spec v's. they're nice looking 17" oem wheels imo.

[!Zar!]

Don't do it.

[Reece]

I'd do it.

[illvialuver]

for the sake of being cheap and not looking cool, You should do it. New tire vs, not new tires. Oem wheel quality is most likley better than whatever the fuck those not TE37s are.

[corkscrew]

Keep your wheels.

It means people from Florida are fucking retards, and that over the years this particular forum has heard some of the most stupid questions asked by people living in Florida.

Its a shame this joke doesn't cross over to other forums so well, its really a good inside joke for us.

With that said, you're wheels are wrong for that car. When picking wheels, its not solely about diameter, its also about width. If you're running spacers with a thin (ie: not wide) wheel, then you are doing it wrong. You need a wider wheel. The only time you should run a spacer is if you only need a minor adjustment, or if buying the proper width/offset wheel is cost prohibitive.

You can easily remedy this bullshit situation you are in by purchasing OEM Z32 TT, R32/R33/R34 GTR, or Supra TT wheels (with 5-lug conversion, of course). The benefit being that you can upgrade your brake system to match (more work, but well worth the effort).

Good luck lamer...

[_Grant_]

don't do it. keep stock wheels. do a 5 lug conversion. and save up some cash to get a legit pair of wheels.

Holy shit, I almost fell out of my chair laughing right now!




OP: Make up your own mind. It's pretty infantile to post a thread on a forum to decide which lame ass wheels you like better. They both suck sweaty donkey cock...

[delado]

Woah there Florida. Let's not reach full retard.

What the fuck, are your wheels made by Schwinn?

[Chaluska]

leave the TE replicas on.

when you can afford good wheels, a 5 lug conversion is only a couple hundred bucks, and totally well worth it. I got my wheels and tires for about 1,200. my 5 lug conversion was 210, the brakes... well.... the brakes were really expensive, but well worth it. CTS-V front brakes, and Z32 rear with e-brake.

http://chaluska.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/20130209-164515.jpg

if i could choose over again, i would go with a slightly wider wheels, with less negative offset in the front.. 18x8+30 would be the ideal front wheel size for me... so i could run 255/35/18, and 285/30/18.. my current wheels are 18x9+40 with 255's and 18x8+20 with 225 for bullshit gay wheel clearance. it is just about as flush as i want it.

one day ill get different wheels that can fit the correct tire size i need... one day...

Haha.

Goddamn look at all this negative feedback just on an opinion about wheels! Thanks to those who actually answered my question.

Well, like I said I picked these up for practically nothing along with spacers and at the moment I have them on because I can't really afford a decent set of wheels. I'm gonna do the 5 lug swap, but after that I'll have to wait to get 5 lug wheels. So for the time being I'm stuck with these. Actually better than the 4 lug base model wheels. That's why I was just asking for an opinion on these OEM wheels I was offered just to see if they were better to put on instead of these replicas. But after all I'm just gonna keep these and get Z wheels hopefully soon.

[shalezzz]

sell your wheels and buy new ones you could prolly get 500 for yours with tires. if your gonna get cheap stock wheels atleast get z33, g35, 300zx or the knock off r33's from square

[SupaDoopa]

If you need to ask other people whether or not trading your OEM wheels that you can get some decent money for if you sold them to a kid with a Sentra over some ugly ass shit replicas is a good idea, you're retarded. They're your wheels. You decide.

Florida. His brother would be so proud.
