I am gonna be getting these put on my rex. What do you guys think about these rims?

 

Good choice, I have always liked those rims, lightweight, durable, and they look good. What are you paying for them?

 

Yeah i think their the ultimate sleeper rims. As far as how much im paying, im still shopping around but some of the places ive looked at are inlinefour.com they sell 15's for 1700 plus shipping. Im on the east coast so shipping is gonna get me. Seems like the cheapest i have seen em for is around 1600 without tires. I have found em for 1400 with tires on http://www.thepartstrader.com, you can find em on there occasionally. But why anyone would wanna get rid of these beauties, i have no clue.

 

 

what color is the rex? i dont' know i think i am the only one that doesn't like black rims.

 

The cars color is phoenix yellow or integra type r yellow. Im trying to simulate spoon sports look on my rex. Your not the only one who hates black rims, i hated black rims but after looking at spoons on different cars and getting more into jdm stuff and stuff that actually has a function instead of looking good i fell in love with black rims. IMP they give the car a more aggressive look, but i know tons of people who hate the way they look.

 

well you were cool about me saying i didn't like them. I think it would look good on your car if you are going for that look. i am just not a black freak but hey it is your car. just post up some pics when done.

 

the only problem I see with it is that everyone is now leaning that direction. By trying to stay away from style, you're actually creating it.

Then again, it happens with anything that you do if you're car is badass...

 

Sounds like a cool look. If possible please post some pics. My white rex has 99 polished gsr wheels now but they are kinda heavy for me. You might already know, but if you want another color Regamaster Evos are the same wheels and I think they come in white, grey, and dark grey. I still prefer your choice of black spoons myself though.

 

i likes

 

JG i gotta agree with you there, it seems as though the more you try and stay away from convention the more eyes you catch and the more copy cats you create along the way. But i think its good for the scene it keeps people on their toes on trying to outdo each other and ousourcing harder to find parts. As long as it aint rice im all for it, last thing we need is everyone looking like each other, ridin around with altezzas.

stinkalope, im actually looking into the regamaster evos, i heard their a tiny bit cheaper than the spoons. I know someone who got em and just powdercoated them black but for all that work id rather just get the spoons. plus i really dig the black spoons.

 

as a matter of fact here they are.

 

as a matter of fact here they are.

 

those are what I would buy if I had the cash.

 

yes. get 16s. very nice. maybe even consodered phat.

 

Nice

 

Where can you get regamaster evos and how much are they compared to the spoons?

 

don't buy 16" spoon rega's or whatever they look different then the 15's i think they look ugly and the 15's are the true ones because those are the light ones they 16's also look like a star but yeah they're koo but i saw a couple of rice guys have it so i'm looking away i'm just going to stay true honda 14" hx wheels for me and that person that put spoons are durable what are you talking about i'll ask this what are these wheels made of??

 

How much do those spoon 15s weigh?

 

I believe spoon rims are made out of magnesium

 

This place sells evos http://www.randdmotorsports.com/specials.html when i said their a little bit cheaper than spoons i mean by like maybe 100-300 bucks, so its not by much. I still havent decided if i wanna go with 16s or 15s i am leaning more towards the 15s just because they weigh less and their closer to the stock wheelsize.

Does anyone have 16s? How does the car drive?

 

Hey what do you guys think about these rims?

 

Hey what do you guys think about these rims?

 

These wheels are supposed to be very durable and pretty inexpensive too. They are always on group buy and I know of a Miata site that sells them for a great price too. I think they come in silver, black, bronze or gun metal. He sells them for about $135.00 for a 15x6.5 that includes tuner lugs and a lock set. Not sure about offset choices. Here is a link:
