get your fenders rolled, and coilovers or take them off. Even good offsets look stupid in the wrong hands

yokota i am not going to take them off. why would I do that? and another I am sick of you with your deconstuctive criticism! the wheels aren't in the wrong hands. just because you think your car is the **** doesn't make it ok! I think your car is ugly... mercedes wheels...i know there not but lol and that hidious wing I don't want you posting under this thread you are such an *******!and if you think my car looks like **** good for you. I paid 500 bucks for it needs a lot of work. i admit it. we all have the same interests...NISSANS this isn't cardomain.

And btw new....one of my "mercedes wheels" cost more than your set combined

Im not trying to be an *** man. Its just your making your car look half ***Get the fenders rolled and it wont look bad. But right now you look liek a redneck with a camaro

yeah he's right, it doesn't look too good. He's kinda being a d!ck about it but it does look bad.

that doesn't mean it doesn't have potential. Most 240 owners, along with all other import tuners, aren't usually the most wealthy people so yokota you should be more tolerant of the fact that a lot of people upgrade their cars in stages. I'm sure he doesn't look at his car and think it looks perfectly finished.

I think that people forget the side benefits of having a cheap, readily available wheel such as these Sportmax 002s.

Yoko: What are you gonna do if one of your rims in one of your many sets gets damaged? I would think it would be hard to find another of those JDM tyte rims that probably arent made anymore, let alone cheap to get from Japan...then there is the time that it would take.

Honestly, i Have a set of these in gunmetal on my coupe (with pulled/rolled fenders and coilovers) and while I think the style of this is nothing I particularly love, they have many many benefits:

1-Good size for 4 luggers2-15s also get the benefit of having way cheaper tires (good for drifters, not to mention easier to find used tires in 15in)3- Q45 brakes will fit4-Can be bought easily for under 100 bucks per wheel so who cares if one get damaged.

I plan on buying another set in red for my used tires to swap em out easy on the rear for the track.

I don't really want to roll my fenders 1. because I need 2 new front fenders 2. I want flares instead does anyone know where I can get 2 fender flares for cheap???

I may be the only one, but I don't think the wheels look too bad. I'd never put 15s on my car, buy hey, you did and it doesn't look terrible. Paint your car red now. :P

500$ imo was a bit much, again, especially for 15s because I don't think I'd put them on my car but if you're satisfied then that's more than enough. :D

And btw, Yokota. Not to be a d!ck or anything, but he did request you not post in his thread anymore and it would be more than nice of you if you complied.

cheap and buying stuff for cars = not a combination to be had..

If they're made they'll probably be here.

I for one don't care much for the wheels but I would say this...Its not my car plan and simple. Thats why you go out and buy your own car and do your own mods. If we all liked the same thing and every car was the same I wouldn't travle 400 miles to a drift event. Who cares if he wants to put 10s on it. Although if you're gonna come to a message bored and post what you are gonna get then ask what people think....You're gonna get what people think. You have haters everywhere deal or don't ask what they think

Actually I saw the price for those and they're not too bad. 200$ for all 4 of them isn't too bad.Fender Rolling you can do yourself, there are articles on how to if you look around. (I'd like you but I don't know where they are off the top of my head.)

those tires are HUGE looks like some inner tubes you would use to go down a river in. I personally think it looks very beanerish right now with the right work done it will look good... just make sure you do the Right modifications ... like nice aero and a better drop not a big wing ... it will come along in time

Dude...................for the last time, STOP trying to be the Viceroy of Nico.One of your wheels did NOT cost more than his whole set. You got those on the cheap in Japan. That applies to your whole car. I got friends in Japan. They could get your wheels for 400 a whole set. Your cars cool, but dont let it get to your head bro. The kid got his first set of wheels. I like them, their nice wheels.He likes them, let him enjoy them. At least he didnt go get some +40 offset motegis. Stop ****ting on his thread. I remember seeing your car on Zilvia and it looked MUCH worse than his car.
