it appears that not only did you leave the honda world, but also you left good taste behind with it, or so it would seem with the mod choices on your "rustang"

I see things never chang on this site. First off I work for a living I am out of town on the average 20 days out of every month. That would explain why it isn't lowered. Second don't see how you can knock the wheels. They are 20x8.5 and 20x10 three peice forged Davins, not cheap cast junk. Also another reason they are on my car is because I work for Davin. This car is gonna be gone in the upcoming months anyways and replaced with a S500 or 745. I have grown up a little.

I hope you don't show people your car, when you are trying to sell these wheels, if that is what you do for Davin. Maybe your sales line could be" Hey look at me I have grown up a little. You can too by making an average car look ugly with nasty looking wheels!!!!

Dude I was saying I have been mad busy and had zero time to lower it. The wheels being on my car is a way for guys to see the product in person. I'm sorry my wheels and tires are worth more then your car.

Also yeah I have grown up. I don't sink all of my hard earned money into my car. I worry about other thing like living on my own and buying another house.

If you would like to see other examples of our wheels on some cars here you go.






I guess we shoud start building 15's for the honda community.

you can say that again Yeah I'm being mean for no real reason and only perpetuating the bad name h-t gets for excessive flaming. One question though, are the red wheels color matched on the ferrari? Its hard to tell from the picture, if they are then that is pretty neat.

Yeah in person they are right on the money. The pic is pretty poor quality so the colors look off.

What do you guys only make dubs so families on welfare can go broke to buy your rims? At least make something that is a little more practical...

Everything is 19" and bigger. We have some lower line wheels coming out but we mostly cater to the high end consumer. Our inventory stays stock with Bently,Benz,Bmw,Range Rover, etc. product.

Thats cool that you are making luxury rims, but since when did rims that are 19" plus join luxury class only? What is cool about decreasing stopping time, increasing road noise, degrading ride quality, and being prone to bends? I think they should be called baller wheels, not luxury. If I wanted luxury I would get something that wouldnt ruin the ride of my car. Oh, and put some 18's on your mustang no bigger.

Alot of the Porsch,Lambo,and Ferrari guys run 19's. Honestly the wheels I have on my car weight about the same as my stocks. As I said before they are three peice forged not cast junk.

dumbest post in this whole thread. Go do some reading on the performance aspect of wheel technology. 19" wheels are average for modern sports car. Ride quality depends on suspension settings. bends on forged wheels are possible but not bent like your rota wheels. stopping time? this isn't a high speed jet car. road noise, please..; that's something a girl would cry about.

This is the reason why this forum is so crappy now. No one knows anything. All they know are fake parts and a certin "colt-like style" this forum has.

Davins = Baller

They make them because these "family" men buy them. Popular culture has taught them that showing off to the "homies" is more important then their family. Similar to the way that culture has taught you and I that it is gratifing to alter economy cars. In the end it is the buyer that is continuing the demand for these products, don't blame davin, blame the buyers. If Davin offered 3 piece forged 22" color matched diapers, I doubt they would be bought.

Man there is some stupidity in this thread....

Re: Luxury wheels: The suspensions on these "luxury cars" are designed to compensate for the low profile tires and larger wheels. They arent riding on your stiff omnipower coilovers, they have well engineered suspensions designed specifically for that BMW (MB, etc...) smooth ride...

Re: Haters: Big deal the guy drive a mustang w/davin wheels, you dont like, DONT POST, stop wasting the bandwidth....
