Does anyone have any pics of these sportmax rims on a 240?

http://losangeles.craigslist.o....html

I'm trying to decide on which rims to put on my hatch. It's either those sportmax, advan sa3r's or advan oni's.

Those dont look bad at all. Of course real watanabes look way better, sportmaxes are cheap and those arent bad. I had no clue sportmax even ever made those.

Also, random question. Why are sportmaxes so cheap? Is it the material used so the wheel is heavy?

wrong. those are Rewinds, or Fastforwards. I think by rota, I forgot... but theyre knock off's of Watanabe Rs8's

the ones the OP posted I think are more like Panasport bootlegs. Theyre a thicker and more bubblier spoke design imo.

Dittoz, those arent the same wheels.

OP, check out Diddersons build thread, im pretty sure he just got some for his car.

zer...age=9

theyre 16x8 with a zero offset, so theyre the same as Sportmax 002's, just with a different face design.

those wheels would be sick if you painted them flat bronze, gunmetal, or black. The whole wheel though, no polished lip.

I hope u know that the car in the pic will look nothing like the ones you posted right? The wheels on that car are 15x7 +0, and the sportmaxes you want are 16x8+ 0. The fitment will obviously be different than the pic. Not to mention they're different looking wheels to begin with...

I know that the sizes were different but i was just considering getting those rims and wanted to see how they looked on a 240. I'm gonna end up getting advan rims in the end.
