funny, if it said ssr on it, everyone would JOCK it. i say go for it as far as looks go. whats the weight? if its light, its just gonna be the whole knockoff vs. real rims over again. **** i'd rock them as daily driver wheels for 90 bux each

I like the lip. If I was going to buy them, I'd probably paint the spokes, and leave the lip polished.

kinda look like SSR knock offs. buy what you like and don't ask for our approval, it's your money and personal taste.

Hey, if you don't like them, you could always paint/powder coat them later.

stats on these rims are hard to find, they're pretty heavy thought, but i'm only using them as daily drivers

RICOCHET 17x7 is 19.4lbs (but i'm getting the 15" which i cant find the weight for)

I like how moondoggy's sig says, "your opinion means so much to me "

Yet he makes a poll about wheels so he won't upset the H-T public. How ironic.
