anyone else want to jump on the bandwagon?? Agreed with the comments on cheap copy's, but in the end its all a personal decision, as with modifying any part of ones car.

Also if you read hot 4's or go to any autosalon car show expect to see big chrome wheels. Thats the norm

want to look at light weight jap rims on cars, go to a race track

Phorte:

I saw a pic of your old car in a old Hot 4's I was reading last night actually! Very nice!

Do you know Richie with the white wagon who went over to S.A?

Stay away from big heavy 1 piece chrome wheels. Nice on Suv's not on performance cars.
