Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22089 Registered: Oct-05 | sorry again guys but i need to make my decision so help me out guys. i won't make another ot thread after this. i need your opinion guys. you guys know i am about to buy some rims. now here are my choices. i want to buy the rims from this guy. my car will look just like this. i want to lower my car this low but only problem is i think the wheels are too deep inside. the price will be $1100. the specs are 18 x 7.5 with 48mm offset. they are gramlights rays wheels.   second choice is this oem honda rims. with tires it will cost me $1500. brand new. it will give me the oem honda look at the same time have the size i am looking for. the specs are 18 x 8 with 45mm offset.  and last but not least, its a set of enkei rims. with tires it will cost me $1960. the specs are 18 x 8 with 45mm offset.  |

Silver Member Username: GibsonguyStorrs, CT USA Post Number: 327 Registered: May-08 | for 1100 used you could get a nice set of chrome rims with tires instead if you did your homework. i think those rims look real nice, and by the name im guessing they are supposed to be light in weight which is probably why the high price tag. overall i like the look, but i think for the price you could get something nicer. |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego, California Post Number: 4459 Registered: Dec-06 | I agree with Rob and Treo. I don't like any of those, sorry Chad. I even tried to like them by squinting my eyes to see them the way that you do. If I was forced to pick one I would take the first ones but ehhh, weak. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8117 Registered: Jul-06 | I like none of those. But if I had to choose, the OEMs. |
|
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rI compensate... Post Number: 8526 Registered: Jul-06 | Is there any reason you can't find some wheels that look good? |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22091 Registered: Oct-05 | lol rob. so how about this. good looking rims but no name brad so its cheaper or decent looking rims but name brand so i have bragging rights. also i am beginning to like the oem more and more. it will also retain the value of the car more when i decide to sell since its the original honda rims. |

Gold Member Username: Crayola0Portage, Wisconsin Post Number: 2442 Registered: Jun-06 | the last ones u posted would look nice |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22096 Registered: Oct-05 | yeah i think so but i think ima go with the 5 spoke one. see the thing is the rims are not going to be flush with the car body. it will tuck in. then my car will be slammed. the last one or the one that berny recomended me would look sick if the rims were flushed. |
|
Gold Member Username: Loc_outSOCAL2 RE 15 XXX Post Number: 2371 Registered: Feb-05 | The second to last would look sweet |
|
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Http://illuzonemu.serv..., ^^^Sick Game Post Number: 7994 Registered: Feb-06 | but why bronze.... i can bet anything that your car will look sharper with some satin silvers... |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22097 Registered: Oct-05 | i just want something different rob. i know silver is a sure thing but i think bronze will look tight too. |
|
Bronze Member Username: AllthingzaudioA - TOWN - WEST-END, GA USA Post Number: 69 Registered: Jul-08 | That 5 star enkei one looks good. |

|
Gold Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 2948 Registered: Mar-06 | do you at least have rear disc brakes? if not, save your money....IMO stock honda acccord v6 rims lowered would look nice, but not as low as that top car, that looks silly. |
|
Gold Member Username: FrkkevinTeam DLSSuperNatural... Post Number: 5365 Registered: Nov-05 | chad check into mb motoring at discount.. pretty sure the weapons are $160ea for the 18"s but if you buy tires/wheels from them they cut you a deal same wheels i had.. now im trying to sell them lol  |

Bronze Member Username: Ballinhigh11Post Number: 98 Registered: Jun-08 | Are those prices for real on there, says I could get 4 rims and 4 tires for $490 shipped. That seems crazy cheap. |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22105 Registered: Oct-05 | just came back from picking up the rims. they look real good.     |

Gold Member Username: Big_edge_headMilwaukee, Wisconsin Post Number: 2535 Registered: Mar-07 | Looks good, Chad. They make the Revo look small lol. |

Gold Member Username: Andrew571Stillwater/Edmond, Oklahoma USA Post Number: 1947 Registered: Oct-05 | That looks good man!... Maybe a size bigger... or drop mit some... But looks good |
|
Bronze Member Username: Cd5honda96OR United States Post Number: 98 Registered: Jun-08 | No drop yet, the back end will look right when he changes up and puts a heavier sub/box in the trunk. (it's just a matter of time chad) ha ha I agree that a size bigger would look better but it still looks great how it is. I also love your exhaust, are you going to put a lip kit on it? |

Gold Member Username: BernymacCambodia Post Number: 4199 Registered: Sep-04 | The pictures really don't do Chads car any justice. In person and when the car is in motion it really looks sick.   |
|
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rI compensate... Post Number: 8595 Registered: Jul-06 | It's all personal preference. I think they look terrible. As long as Chad likes them it's all good though. I would have stuck with the OEM wheels, much nicer and better looking along with a better ride too. |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22143 Registered: Oct-05 | thats true. i like them and thats all that matters. |
|
Gold Member Username: HdubbTeam Revolution Post Number: 3873 Registered: Nov-04 | the bronze actually looks good with that black. imo. looks pretty good to me.has a classy import look to it hahaha |

|
Gold Member Username: JtownTexas Post Number: 3117 Registered: Mar-07 | looks good btw, should have gotten black wheels though, that would have been better IMO |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22150 Registered: Oct-05 | i don't like black on black. ima raise the car a bit. maybe like half an inch or something. i love my coil overs. lol. anyways guys i think ima start going through rims like i go through subs. hahahaha. jp. |
|
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22152 Registered: Oct-05 | oh and i don't think i'll go any lower. its low enough.  |
