Nancy Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 usaually panasports and watanabes have crazy dimensions and offsets. mainly cause theyre used for rwd cars. im gonna use them anyway, i guess i wont be tucking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocifero Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 those would look nice black. im envious of the weight. what tires are you going with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I wanted those for the sol, mainly because older wheels = teh sex. Jimmy on H-T had some, but I couldn't get them when he got rid of them. I want some too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS John Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I never thought about it till Nancy pointed it out, but aftermarket wheels that came out after the car you put them on tend to look out of place very easily. I think that's why I have such a difficult time finding rims I like that aren't OEM (my favorite rims are still LS meshies). All the ones you see nowadays are too modern for my 15 year old car.

demented6's Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I think those will look awesome. You're car should eat curves from the weight and the width. I want to get my rims powder coated flat black and paint my car flat black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Flat black cars are fugly IMO, it makes it look primered. Sup dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 ^ agreed. this car pulls it off fairly nicely though. but yeah, if you do it to a civic it will look like your cheap and only have your car primered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH6TunerDaniel Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Wait, they are 14X8 and you got 185/60's?? Why suck a narrow tire with that wide rim? I like them a lot. I wanted a set of something like that for my 86 MR2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I'd love 14x8 or 15x8 for the sol, but I am not sure about fitment issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
