[Apossiblehybrid]

nay, they look too generic.

[infinitexsound]

yay and spacers

[CMO]

Yah, cause I already have them on the s13 beater. Nice wheels for the el cheapo price. I got mine cheaper than what those are selling for.

[someguy_240]

nah they almost 26lbs!! damn did you not see that

[lucky7]

i think they look pretty good. 1 more yay.

[theronin]

yay and spacers


couldnt agree more. seems like wheel designers are jumping on the bandwagon for us a little more with the sizes, however they just cant figure out that damn offset thing for the life of them.

[mrmephistopheles]

nay. (but for the price, hard to beat)

[420sx]

holy fuck those are heavy

[jdm538]

yes agreed yay with spacers.

[r-b-x]

nay, 'cos they're heavy heavy heavy heavy heavy

...unless you don't care about that sorta thing...

[Blues13]

NAY.. way heavy and ugly.

[FaLKoN240]

Those are stupid heavy, and stupid cheap, if you don't care about performance, and are a ricer, go ahead and get em.

[chlatboy]

Who gives a fuck. He never said he was gonna drift in them. I personally like them. Maybe its just for show. For the price, its hard to beat. Sorry if we all arent drifto masters if he wants them, who cares. :wackit:

[topsecretgold]

Just wait for a nice set of good cond used fn's in 17X9 17X10... :D

[m0rex]

Where its hard to get good wheels locally its a good buy. Or if you like how the motegi touge wheels look then this aint bad. I wouldnt sport them... i think the brand makes me sick. I mean if i'd see it on a 240sx i would be "sport max racing wheels?.." :ghey:.

[sw20>>s14]

well, my computers tweakin from all the pr0n...why do the viruses not let you view ebay anyway? anywho, from what i saw they look like enkei RP03s...real ones with good sizes are yay...dunno bout knockoffs tho...only saw a split second, but i say nay assuming the sizes suck...

[kazuo]

Nay.

Get Regamasters or something. Don't settle for heavy rims and weak offset just 'cause its cheap. Spend a little more and get something that fits/looks better and is closer to what you want.

[azanprophet]

Nay...too generic looking and too heavy

[Var]

520 shipped. Qualiy wheel spacers are 200 bucks a pair. 720 . Add 80 bucks and you have FN's

[smellslikecurry]

Those are stupid heavy, and stupid cheap, if you don't care about performance, and are a ricer, go ahead and get em.

wait since when are you a ricer if you dont care about performance?????

does a guy that buys slk55 care about performance or how many bitches he gets?

[urmomthnksimcute]

does a guy that buys slk55 care about performance or how many bitches he gets?

[Var]

Only if you fix your car up AND you dont care about performance

Here's some pics of them on a S13 cut n paste from Freshalloy. Looks okay... not very special. I would not get them.

[ranisron]

YAY.... can't be the price...

the S13 looks nice (better than mine)

[TOMY]

i say yay for daily driver wheels. They are heavy, which would make me think they are durable. If you live any where, like chicago, having nice wheels don't make sense. I really like them, they are simple, cheap, and like decent.

[420sx]

^ huh? dont make sence? wtf are you talking about? so i'm guessing everyone that lives in a big metro area and has nice wheels is a non-sence making moron? mmmkkkayyyy

[HaLo]

nay...

too heavy

[TOMY]

I forgot mention pot holes. But think about it. Go purchase a set of Volk SE-37's and drive you car EVERYDAY with them and wait untill you bend, chip or crack your wheels. Come back here and tell your glad you bought them. Don't be an fucking idiot.

[420sx]

^ i wouldnt buy volks. im a zigen whore for life...

[*NismoS13*]

It kinda sucks about the weight, but I do think they look good and the price is great too. I say just go for it...

-Adam

[MisfitFlesh]

yea weight does kinda suck, but those wheels look a lot better on that green s13 then a lot of peoples wheels ive seen on the board.

[SOLDIER [X]]

buy my wheels, 200$, i'm local their 5 spoke and 16in

http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=82545

i'll even throw in a pair of 7 spokes for free if you pick them up

[240silvia]

LOLOLOL. This thread is funny. Just last night, before I saw this thread today, I just ordered those wheels, that same auction! lol. I got them b/c they are for my daily driver, so, weight wasn't an issue. And they don't have to be "jDm TytE yO! flush" lol. Anyway, I ordered those and some 235/45/17's off of Discount tire. Hopefully they will be mounted by next week!

[ranisron]

again, they look nice for the $...

if I have money, I'd like to get nice wheels... oh well, I am happy with my Altima (1st gen) wheels...

[skiboard06]

so wut would you guys personally recoommend for a decently light wheel thats 17x8/8.5/9 and a good offset that doesnt require spacers and also clears 300zx 30mm calipers just lookin for some personal opinions not tryin to start fights

[240silvia]

Those are stupid heavy, and stupid cheap, if you don't care about performance, and are a ricer , go ahead and get em.

WTF are you talking about???? What makes those wheels rice?? You are a dumbass man. Let's see your car, and I'll show you mine... we'll see who's "rice"

I bet you have a 91 240sx, BUT, you call it a 180sx. I've got Kouki lights, do you??? oh master of JDMness. I have the 1/2 & 1/2 turn signals, do you??? :rant2:

You need to be careful how you throw around the "rice" term.

I said the wheels are ricey because they were made CLEARLY for looks. To my knowledge, one that RICES a car out is purely out for the looks more than the performance of the car, and last time I checked, HEAVY WHEELS, were not in the category of PERFORMANCE. :goyou:

I'm not attacking anyone, NOR did I know that you bought the wheels, personally, I think they look nice, I would rock them if they didn't weigh MORE than the stock alloy wheels WITH Falken Azenis.

O, and don't get all butthurt because you bought them, then I said that about them. O yeah, my car is completely stock on the outside, unless you count my shock/springs, and my 15" wheels. 15x7 +10 and they don't weigh:

120,478,492,569,828,573,259,872,938,579,732,957 lbs.

O yeah, and screw JDM, I won't pay for anything JDM unless it does something good, and that doesn't include, letting people know that I'm turning a corner at an intersection.

I've said my piece, and I won't respond anymore to this thread, only because I don't feel the need to defend my opinion any further. So, if you call me out, congrats, I've already admitted defeat.

[Project D]

Ha, this is a funny thread. You guys just need to chill. Anyways, like the wheels. Looked at buying them, but too heavy. Just gonna get %zigen FNO1R-C in bronze instead. Cheap, light, nice, and will look great on a white car. But I say yay if you likie em. Cause in the end, thats all that counts.
