Tell me what you think about these rims...

$80 a wheel? I might just be ignorant, but thats dirt cheap. These wheels were about $150 a piece. And that was a good deal, usually they're about $180-200. You do pay more for chrome.

I'm checking out that website from WuKong... Wheels and tires for $695. wow. Those are 15's... still not bad. hmm...

i just threw a number out there. for $200 a wheel you could have gotten much lighter wheels in a bigger size.

I can understand where you're coming from.
The whole point of the internet is to make things more efficient.
Most places do list their prices, and it makes it easy for the customer to find a good deal. And to know exactly what their paying right there.

I won't even bother with companies that don't have their stuff together. They don't put their prices up, they probably lost my business...

I really didn't want to go bigger. I think 16's are a sweet spot. They look nice, and the ride isn't too bad. Lighter, yeah I could have gone lighter. I was looking at Kazzera KZV 16" which are 16.5lbs each. I wonder what the 02 S stock alloys weigh...

watever floats ur boat. i think they look better in a bronze

fyi ur pics are down.

Tell me what you think about these rims...

I am having trouble imagining how they'll look on my car. I'm not sure if they will look nice. I keep changing from "I don't know" to "Yeah thats nice." I've seen them on a pontiac sunfire that was the same color as my car. I think they look nice. I know photoshopped stuff isn't always true to real life. But I'd like to get everyone's opinion...






thanks...

bigger picture of the wheel itself would be nice. cant really tell too much from that pic.

i'd PS it and lower it about 10 pixels, see how that fits. i relaly like it

Ok, I added a bigger picture.

its not bad looking wheel. the chrome isn't my thing tho. if you like it i say go for it. who makes it?

American Racing... SR 686 I love chrome.
I've already got the wheels. 16x7. they weigh about 20 lbs each. not bad, not the lightest though.

i like your paint color?

I take it you don't like the rims... It's ok. Be honest.
I know most people on here like the Zigen 5 spoke painted tuner style rims.

holy crap 20lbs? man i hope you got a good deal on those wheels. i'd say anything over $80 a wheel is too much.

i just don't like them. Hmmmmm let me look around i'll let you know if i find anything. 5x100 has so many good options with good offsets

http://www.wheeloptions.com/main.html

here is a website with a list of good wheels

i HATE websites that won't list prices

thats why you call them >

yes, i have been shopping for a couple of weeks now and having to call is just another hassle... volks works advans ssr's sprints mugens weds regamasters desmonds are never never priced. it is simply annoying to have to call every place.

exactly. Don't fall into the bling army

16" with the right offset looks good. When 16's look bad its when someone doesn't know how to look at the offset.

Don't worry, no bling rolla here.

Would you explain the theory of offset to me? I just don't know.

Hm... I could always paint them.
Thanks. I guess I have exceeded my bandwidth on my Verizon account. I'll find new hosting...

www.machiii.net has prices of volks, advans , oh yea chrome is nasty on a corolla

Nasty? Interesting, why do you think that?
I should look for some corollas with chrome wheels... Maybe I'll see where you're coming from.

There's three that are on chrome. I really don't like any of them that much. Mostly because of the paint color, stupid tint, or just an ugly wheel design. (take no offense, it's just my opinion) I would say the 3rd car is the best looking out of all. I still don't care too much for the wheel design.

Most people on VVTi are about performance and racing. Chrome does have that bling bling vibe to it, not really a performance wheel. So I can see why some people don't like chrome on a corolla. I want it took look sporty and a little more classy. There's a good chance I can make it work somehow. If it really looks that bad I can always paint over the chrome, or just sell/trade.

For those who haven't seen... I've re-hosted the pictures so they should show up!

are u sure about that?

Maybe its just my personal opinion but, chrome on anything thats an import (specifically the corolla, civic...etc) it just looks tacky in a way.I don't know maybe it'll look different on yours so don't let me make the decision for you but I think it'll look ugly. I also agree that chrome does have a bling bling mantra to it so thats why I hate them I guess. Do what you want though, If you like it then more power to you.

It seems like it. Most people go for that look.

Ok, just curious. Thanks for the honest opinion!
