Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting some new rims in a few months, I found some I really like and they are only 10 pounds each, but they are 15's. Anyone got pics of their tib in 15's? Cybershark has 15's and they look sweet with his drop, but he's not on the site anymore.

faithofadragon

these are teh ones i might be gettin if the bbk im installin doesnt fit ill get them in gunmetal
they weigh in at 13lbs
remember you dont want too light cuz they can shatter and they tend to bend easily unless there forged...and you dont want your wife and kids to crash cuz they hit a pothole and you KNOW the roads are a little rough out here at times

My Konigs weigh 13, so I don't wanna go higher than that.

These are the ones I was looking at.

After looking at their site, there are several they make I like.

All forged, all very light.

THAT one is available in 16's, should weigh about 11 pounds maybe.

This is the set I really want, it's listed for 16's though, maybe I should contact them?

I emailed them for more info, they also have them in 17's, but I'd rather stay away from that size.

I like that Mag5. If I cannot find an Enkei RPO1 in a couple more months.. I may give up on my enkeis and go with something like that. As popular as the RPO1 was.. they are near impossible to find.

and it it just me.. or are wheel makers turning to making some really UGLY rims recently?

code

after looking at my 17's ... i think they are small..

MK3Design

15's and 16's are the best on any small import IMO. 15's are not too small, they are PERFECT.

But yeah, you need to be lowered a few inches

My car when it had 14's if this helps

Yeah, they are really good looking rims.

You are right though, there are some NASTY looking rims, and most of them are WAYYYY TOOO BIG or HEAVY now. There's a set by Falken (yup, they make rims now) that Cysco has that look fantastic, but they don't come in 16's and they are like 22 lbs for a 17inch rim.

Jspeed.co.kr , used to make pulleys and all sorts of stuff for us, now just makes rims. NASTY ones.

I fully agree on both accounts. I'm figuring I'll go with 15's, enjoy the lighter weight, the cheaper tires, and the 1.8 inch drop with the HKS springs.

Actually, I just looked it up. It's a 32MM drop up front and back.
