Well, the time has come for new wheels, the chrome 15" wheels that came with my car really need to go (rocking big o tires 60 series all seasons, w00t!). I have been casually looking for a long time and I havent really found anything that I really like.

I am looking for something lightweight in 16"-17" (leaning towards 17 cause im a ricer ) I am going to rock 15" rotas on the front with bfg's when it really matters, but I am looking for a nice classy wheel.

So far I have been looking at:

The velox pg-5s


A badass wheel at 12.5 lbs in 17". The only thing though is it seems like it...looks crappy on actual cars. Like..the spokes are too thin or something.

Also I was looking at some RH C2's



A nice looking wheel and fairly light, although a lot of people have this. I would at least need to powdercoat them bronze to distance myself.

or.....rotas....=/

not that there is anything wrong with rotas, I might just buy some circuit 8's or grids. Although then I am limited to 16" and the finish is not as top notch as other wheels.

4x114.3 is kind of a bastard wheel to shop for, Does anyone have any good ideas for something cool? Price is not really an issue, although I am not a JDM tool that will pay $1500 in shipping costs from japan.

If i cant find anything that I like I may just do a 5 lug conversion..which kind of sucks cause i just redid my brakes.

Anyways, post some cool wheels!!

 

sorry, dont have a pic, but how about mine:
Volk Racing Gram Lights 57c's?

 

these are similar to the velox i think they're pretty nice:

i like this to:

if i was going show i would go with either of these. and they're forged also, so they're strong and light.

 

hmmm..those gram lights look cool. I also like the first wheel that the second guy posted, do you know the name of it? how much it weighs?

cmon guys post more wheels!

you have one of the best/cleanest 4th gens i've seen, thats how accords should be

 

Definatly, I would have to agree with ^ (you) !

 

Here ya go, these are MOMO M-1's wicked tight! If your racing and the other driver Looks at em when there spinning, the other driver goes blind for a few seconds. That's like getting 30 hp. Use to rock em on my accord, I have never seen a rim bling like the MOMO's. Just your luck, I am sellin em too!!! Just fawkin with you they prob ain't your style. Not really mine anymore either.

 

I am starting to lean toward the Volk Gramlight 57 Pros...they are pretty expensive but they look awesome.

Does anyone have pics of these wheels on a car? Preferably 17" in gold..but any pics would be cool. I'm searching the web with no luck so far...

Also if anyone could post up pics of regular gramlights (preferably in 17") on a car i would appreciate it.


thx=]

 

real racing r5 (made in japan)

^^^^^ I love them Advan RG's, my bro just got 16" RG's in bronze for his G20, and they look sweet as hell!!!!!!!
