Which sportmax wheels?

[240lookis]

So I'm getting new wheels soon and I'm debating which to get. Ok so I'm not asking you to choose between some works and ssr's but give me your thoughts.

I have a primered black pignose hatch.

So I'm either getting Sportmax 501:16x8 all around +15 offset 2.5" lipThey sit pretty flush, but are not unique at all and smaller lip.

Or XXr 513:16x7 front +15 offset 2.5" lip16x8 rear 0 offset 3.5" lipOnly oner person on Nico has them so they'd be pretty unique. Rear is 0 offset and i dont have coils so hard to pull off. Way bigger lip though.

[hsckris]

I prefer the 2nd ones

[tramp_drift240]

both of those suck. get 002s.

16x8, zero offset. the best looking sportmaxes there are, in my opinion. and still only like, 400 bucks for the wheels shipped.

ya but i dont have coilovers so theyd look like ****. plus even more people have them then the 501s.

[tramp_drift240]

i say, cut springs, get 002s, paint them to your liking, two tone preferably, perhaps new face color, keeping polished lip.

sickness on a budget, i can dig it.

id say you should do your suspension/stance first, then get some wheels to make it even better. but even sweet wheels look like poop under a 4x4 240.

but you can make youre own decision, thats just my two cents.

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

every1 is gettin the 002's now, thats why im gonna keep my breytons and get some custom made hub/spacer to make them fit. Wont no1 have them. But to answer your questions i prefer the 002, but its up to you.

DON'T get the 501's i have those and give them 2 thumbs down...The're mocked up to look like two pieces, but those little plastic (BOLTS) fall out and then it just looks gay...I'd say get the 002 also, but dont cut your springs just wait until you can afford coilovers

[Flicktitty]

save your penny's and get something else.

[tramp_drift240]

itd be pennies, not penny's.

and you should try to get coilovers, but i aint got no problem with a temporary setup of cut springs.

looks pretty dope if its done right.

[Flicktitty]

pennies, penny's,penises,pen15's lol

sportmax = over****in rated. save up get some real wheels or some other off brand non played out wheels. My girlfriend even knows sportmax's are gay. When she goes to car shows she laughs at people with them.

Yeah, but you can always tell somebodys got cut springs by the uneven bounce of the car... It looks funny to me....It doesnt have that stiff coilovers bounce live its uneven in the front and the back...

[Goldeneagle]

Even if I had to choose between just those two wheels, I would still choose stock steelies over any sportmax wheel.

Save your money for something better.

Hey atleast the're an upgrade from stockies haha....but yea, that another option...Id save up and get some work wheels or my personal favorite...The Volk's ce28n

[Greddy323]

yeah the 002's are nicer. i love the 002's

plus its not such a pleasent ride when you go over big bumps...YOur head tends to hit the roof a lot..

[Flicktitty]

i would seriously just check local 240sx/drifting sites. craigslight,nico etc... and find some used wheels. i paid $500 for my Epsilon mesh wheels with BRAND NEW tires just cause i gave it time to find them.

[leroiboy]

sportmax's are absolutely gay and heavy. but if i were goingwith them,id choose the latter set.

[240lookis]

thanks for your responses.i already have some teins that came with the car and i just ordered some gr-2s so i can have decent ride quality until i get coilovers which is up there on my to buy list. im not paying 1500 dollars for some works or volk. its just ridiculous. i could get meshies but i dont reallty like how they look.im also not getting 002s cuz everyone has them. and to all you who laugh at sportmax wheel owners: they most likely wont break (especially since im not tracking my car) and they're great wheels for someone on a budget.

so they're gay? heavy? not really. they way 17 pounds each. not bad. it's the 962's the weigh a ****load.

I wish I would of saved and purchased a better rim. I have the 006's, but still the quality sucks IMO. They will look great tho! Atleast get the 002's

no, that doesnt look good.

which is exactly why i ****ing said that suspension/stance should be done first, THEN wheels.

jesus, no aftermarket wheels look good with 4x4 status.

[Flicktitty]

dudes got a ****in pointthat or get the wheels and keep them in your room till you get a bigger drop.

if you want a 4x4 i'll trade you my truck.

[gizzerd]

I say get the 501's then we can be mad tight and start a 501 crew...hahaI like the other's, I just hate that they are staggered.
