anyone have 17s slips on their teg because i want to see how it looks like before i buy some

 

i sold the 17" slips and have 15" circuit 8's now

 

what was i ever going to do with 17s... im going 15s or 16s with lopro tires now. current im on 14s, damn steelies.

 

Id stick to 16s with low pros. The biger those slips are the uglyer they look.

 

Here's my 16"

 

I'd stay away from the 17 inch wheels unless you have massive brakes underneath. Cars never look right with puny stock brakes just chilling out in plain sight. I'd def. have to say 16's, or 15's is the way to go.

 

Ive seen 17's look nice on hondas but slips arent the way to go, they look really nice in 15's and 16's tho

 

Slips in 15's ftw.

 

I have 15"s and they look small, ordered some 16"s yesterday, will post pics.

 

ya 16" with low pro is the best, like stated above and I can say it personally if you have stock brakes, even if you have disc in the rear, it just looks dumb with a brake too small and a bigger rim

exactly why i downsized to 15's

much better IMO

 

Your car looks really good with those wheels and stuff. Any bigger pics with the 15's?

 

Nice cars man, but a serious question. Why build a nice car and put a knock off wheel on it?

 

why waste the money for a name brand when it can be spent building a nice car?

 

I was going to go with 18"s but as they said, looks stupid with stock brakes...

I went with 16's....

I think my car needs to be dropped about an inch or so though, however I don't want to sacrifice the ride...

because name brand wheels are usually much lighter and stronger

 

Fifteen inch slipstreams....

I guess I shouldn't of answered that in a question. lol. but to me the weight savings isn't worth paying 2-3 times the price for a rim that looks the exact same and is strong enough not to fail.

They are cheap. they are still pretty damn light and they obviously are strong enough. and if something does happen to it its cheap to replace.

 

The only reason I would see buying the overpriced Japanese originals, is if I wanted to earn brownie points with the judges at a HIN show or something.

 

15x7 Regamasters for only $600 I'll post an installed pic later tonight.

because i have better things to spend my money on. wheels get trashed where i live so cheap good looking wheels are always good for me

 

I'm just saying, why go all out to build a car, then throw on a set of knock off wheels. Thats like fully building a motor then buying an xs power turbo kit off ebay.
