Pics of 16s

[NOreasonY]

show me some pics of your aftermarket 16s if u have em... need an idea. thanks

Here's what I would do:

Go to http://www.cardomain.com and in the "advanced search" field put in the number 16 along with Nissan Versa as the car and if you want, specify a brand of wheel and you should get some good ideas then.

or go to tire rack and put in your car and color and see their wheels on it.

Also, I don't know if there is a Discount Tire store near where you live, but just for the sake of having a very nice interface with a bit better choices than Tire Rack, you should check out http://www.discounttire.com

Toward the middle on the right hand side of the main page is where you select "see wheels on your car or truck"

sadly, if you have a mac, discount tire has a plugin that won't work because shockwave hasn't yet made itself compatible to the intel chip in the macs... :o(

[ace rothstein 81]

Ahh, that's right... I remember seeing that when I tried to show my brother on his iBook. Oh well. Anyway, I just ordered some new Konig wheels and Falken tires from them, so hopefully I'll have them on by this time next week.

discount tire rules! and kimber... that's waht you get for using a macintrash

[Demonspawn]

you know i was going to mention that but do we really need to get a mac vs windows war going yet again!

[KimberKenobi]

well, I don't have to pay for anti-virus software, they always work, they are easy to fix, and my last one went 8 years before I decided to get an intel iMac... and for the record, I have an Intel iMac, a tangerine iMac (couldn't get rid of it b/c I have the whole macromedia suite on there than that stuff's expensive), an old gateway that runs XP (and works freak-tastic - it's from before gateway sold out), and three crappy dell laptops that are slow, cumbersome, and crap.

The only thing on my iMac that's ever given me trouble? Why that would be microsoft office. ;oP

[Demonspawn]

yea my last dell i bought in 2000 and just retired it last week and it still worked fine and is still going my son has it now.

I dont pay for antivirus, too many free ones out there!

with this new machine once i tweaked vista like i wanted it i have no complaints with it. even though everybody hates vista im not having that much problems with it.

macs do break down also i used to run calls for mac all the time in my last job and everytime i had to crack open a case i would be plotting steve job's death what a nightmare. give me a pc to work on anyday.

i am not bashing macs when they run they are great machines no complaints but if they break it is a nightmare

[KimberKenobi]

HAHAHAHAHA!! Vista is the OS X rip!!

you're a macphile and didn't know it ;oD

In my experience working in the maclab at Berea College and in workplaces which use solely mac platforms, there is a lot less maintenance. Now, before Berea College changed to Dell only (the point at which I went to the maclab to troubleshoot them - umm... I played online all day) the library macs were always funked because they tried to treat them like PCs and they're not PCs... they're macs.

Sure they both break down, but in my experience, macs have always had better performance life (let's face it, with numerous companies building PC platforms, it turns into computer by the lowest bidder with the exception on Alienware).

I generally pride myself on being savy on both systems.

[Demonspawn]

i am not a big mac user but i have played on them!

it is different but once you get through the learning curve not too bad.

your better off using mac for graphics such as photo shop.

dont plan on finding alot of games for mac if you want gamming then you need the pc because you have much more choices.

me and the guys from the old radio show i used to be on have this discussion constantly lol

I'm a technician who used to be both PC (multiple manufacturers) and Apple certified. Note I said used to be. I no longer carry an Apple certification.

I could give my whole passionate diss on Mac, but I'd rather not type it all. Suffice it to say that in my years of suffering as a technician, NOTHING has made me suffer more than repairing Macs. Given that, and their still-limited use of PC software even WITH bootcamp and XP, and their outrageous price, I will not be owning one any time in the foreseeable future.

(And for those that care, I'm using a relatively new Gateway notebook with Vista. Not a hint of problems, even taking it with me into the field.)

[reyes1212]

so...what if you get 17's or 18's?

i hear you man i do not miss the field!!it is pretty kewl being on the other end of the phone no more pages at 4 pm to be at a site 3 hours away!

[KimberKenobi]

;oD

(end of comments ;oD we all know I'm a diehard. But I love my little Gateway sooo much!!)

[Demonspawn]

yea the whole mac pc thing is so over use what you want and damn the rest!

[marleyfan]

I put 17's on my Laptop PC. It looks way better than 16's on a Mac. Or am I getting my topics mixed up?

I love this forum so much!! (Clipsed and I just locked a thread ;oD)

I've seen a few Vs with 16s and they look good (I'm not going to post someone else's car), I do think 17s are a bit large... Unless you're going for a bubble and modify the suspension (I'd LOVE to see a Versa Bubble just because it would be amusing)

I just feel that there needs to be a certain amount of tire there... My brother cracked several wheels because his low profiles were really low and he couldn't keep from hitting curbs (I'm so glad my brother isn't on this forum... because I don't want him pointing out all my past mistakes ;oD)

[Demonspawn]

yea alum wheels dont take curb shots as good as steel!

for the geeks we have a great site for computer users and it is totally free we help out people with pc and mac issues!

16's also a good size because most 16's are the same weight or lighter than the factory 15's, but most 17's, except the most lightweight models, are going to be heavier. And heavier than stock wheels suck for both acceleration and deceleration.

[KimberKenobi]

Ooh! That's a good argument to know...
