thats nice...*drool* too bad they're copies..I wonder how they're made?-chet

They're cast, I know that much. The company that makes them seems pretty good...here's their link:http://www.m2-hanbai.com/

I especially like their seats (prices) and rails...too bad nobody sells them (just this gb).

Ok so I finally ordered some rims. Suprisingly they are the rims that started this thread. only in 15's. So I placed an order for a set of Voxx MGR's 15x7 +40. I decided I would stay with a pretty much stock set up. Got some falken Ziex tires 205-60-15. So what do you think? Here is a pic and this is the link to the wheels.http://discounttiredirect.com/...64857

I just got the same wheels in 16X17.5...They look a bit different for our cars because they are 4 lug...because of the placement of the spokes vs lug holes, the center piece for the 4 lug is larger, I believe, so the spokes aren't so long...doesn't look as 'slender' as it does in the pics...

eh, Im not to hot on em...but as long as you like them. Thats what really counts, its your car =)

Post by **WongFeiHung** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I like them because they are clean and simple...could almost pass for an OEM wheel...The goal of my car is sleeper and subtle. 16X7.5 doesn't look too flashy and is a great width...

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I wanted the 16x7.5 but they sold out. Also I was worried about them rubbing.

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Hey wong do you have any pictures of your car with the wheels on NICO?

Post by **WongFeiHung** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Haven't got tires for them yet...Tires are going to be like twice the cost of what I paid for the wheels...lol...Probably not going to get tires til after summer...

hahahaa I swear they are so cheap. Mine were 50 each, but for a civc lug pattern they were 100 each. I hate that I missed the 16's though. I would have bought them when I first saw them, but feared the rubbing. I'll try and get a pic of the wheels on my car when they come in.

Post by **WongFeiHung** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I wasn't even planning on buying wheels for awhile...Saw that deal, thought it was a misprint, but I couldn't pass that deal up...16X7.5 for $55 each?? Yes, please...

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I swear. I posted on here about them and then exar said they would rub. So I hesitated. Looking back I wish I had bought them. But the 15's will be cool.

Post by **aleph1** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I found some Riken black mesh wheels at a local Goodyear, Im gonna check em out...cant be that expensive if they are at Goodyear. And I know at the very least SOME Riken wheels fit 4x114.3 cuz I saw a S13 with some on.... =)

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

I would love a good set of 16" mesh rims. Are they used?

Post by **aleph1** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Nope. these look brand new to me. They have a few of them in the window....I drive by all the time =) Going there tomorrow to check it out.

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Think I might be goin' to my local goodyear to see if they can order a set then. Though I can't afford another set of rims presently.

rubbing depends on offset, and most civic wheels run very high offsets, even in wider wheels(like a 40-45mm offset 7.5" wheel..)

check out jspec.com for some nice mesh wheels, and even http://www.jarco.com

has some wanatabe wheels for sale I think.-chet

lol its http://www.jaroinc.com unless you want propane products =)

Most of the wheels they have are all 14"-15" there is only 2 sets that are 16" and for S13s ones fugly white and the other has rust and is already too expensive...

Post by **Exar-Kun** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

even you got it wrong! hah

http://www.jarcoinc.com/

you forgot the "C"

yeah, my bnad...maybe propane ofr inflating the tires??? hehehe.

jspec has wheels too, but most of us know that :p-chet

Boy is my face red... :oface

Also, I went by Goodyear yesterday, apparently they only have like 6-7 Riken wheels, none of them full sets and the guy there said they where there even when he started working there, which, Id imagine was a while ago. So in all, very disappointed.

Post by **WongFeiHung** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Here they are 16X17.5 4 lug

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Not bad, Though the 5 lug definaly looks better. Mine are supposed to arive today so I shall see how that goes. I still really want a nice set of mesh rims. Only problem is most are only sold in pairs. As the other 2 are totally messed up.

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Thu Aug 07, 2003 11:28 am

Well i got my rims and tires in today. I must say I am quite impressed. They look good but not to conspicuous. I will try and get pics soon. :ylsuper
