CleanGSR Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 If they were 17's I'd say yes. I like the style and color of them, just not the size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS John Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Those look nice. Go with 17s and don't repaint them, if you want my opinion. "Keep it clean." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airjordan223 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 blue would be nice. but if you want it done properly, you have to paint inside the engine bay and the door jams and all of that. if your just fixing stuff, keep it stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attaus Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Or, if you're not made out of money.. () Rota and 5Zigen make decent ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16bhonda Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 i was thinking about getting some rota's. they have some with a nice gold finish. but i want to keep it lightweight. my friends say i should keep it 18" for the handling, and also that i'd need at least 17"+ for a brake upgrade. but i have a slight frame problem with my car (the driver wheel sticks out about an inch more than the passenger wheel) and i'm doing some outter-edge damage to the tire on the 18" on the driver's side whenever i make a hard right turn. the stock 14's are fine as far as this goes. and i would imagine 16s would be fine too. any place i can get gold rota's cheap? what do you guys think about the size selection? i'm trying to sell my konig 18's so i'll have a couple bucks saved for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'm not sure I understand you correctly... If I'm getting this right, you have 18" wheels that are rubbing when you turn (because they're too big for your wheel wells). And your friends are telling you to keep that size? Don't -- it's too big. Run 17s if you need something close to that size. If you want lightweight, then get smaller wheels, though. 15s should be fine. Rotas are fairly cheap (as wheels go) in general. I know robearracing.com carries some of their stuff, but I don't know besides that. See if a store can order them for you to save of shipping and get a faster delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16bhonda Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 it's not that the 18's i have now aren't too big, it's just the way the frame is bent it's making the driver's wheel stick out further than it's supposed to. so i want to be running maybe 16s with a smaller width. besides, the really big wheels are getting a little too riced out for me.

b16bhonda Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 robearracing.com doesn't seem to have wheels at the moment...any other place to check for lightweight gold 16" rota's? this is definitely what i want. i've looked everywhere and i'm having some trouble finding.
