    Default Time Attack Style Wheels = Rice

    What's the fascination with these hideous wheels?

    FYI: Time attack = black wheels with a red lip

    Cheap wheels + paint does NOT equal nice wheels.

    They aren't edgy or original, it's just ugly. It's not unique to color match your wheels to your car. Save your money and buy some real wheels.

    BTW: Also rice is cheap black mesh wheels with a polished lip.

    BTW BTW: I know their is a wheel/tire etc. section but I didn't want to put this there.

    Black wheel with red lip.

    I agree completely. The only time it's acceptable is when it comes from Volk that way. Stop trying to pass off your cheap stock wheels as anything different.

    agreed. Unless there authentic Volks and what not dont bother. Unless you have forged rims...then nm. But if you stockk alloys please dont bother.

    I considered changing my user title because I look like an ******* calling everything rice all the time. At first I liked color match, but Its just a simple look. It takes no creativity and its awful in terms of styling. It draws all the attention away from other work youve done.

    So everyone should shave their lenses, do motor work, and lower the car but keep stock wheels.

    Now that is creative.

    edit: btw, your car is rice. the rear has negative camber.

    I never said that. I dont get it.

    My car does not have negative camber its the angle of the picture. I havent dropped it, but the kids who cut their springs, or lower their car and are too cheap to fix their camber issues are rice.

    lamborghinis arent rice but there is definitely a trend of lamborghinis being owned by people who put big chrome rims on them... while serious performance car enthusiasts stick to ferrari (probably has to do with rwd>awd). also notice how ferrari factory color options are just regular red/yellow/black/blue while lambo color options are flashy orange, lime-green, fluorescent yellow, etc lol... the diablo was the last good lambo imo.

    heh sorry for the thread jack

    I dunno man, I think it depends on the application. Personally I think my car would look good with some TE-37's black w/ orange lip.

    You would be wrong. Mk4's don't need camber correction when you drop them. My friend has coils and no rear perches, he's tucking and his camber is perfect.

    A Spicy orange Mazdaspeed Protege with Black TE37s and a Spicy Orange lip has actually been done before. EXACT same application.






    BTW I think this looks DAMN good. I do however agree about negative camber when it's appearance starts to get noticable when NOT looking for it. (I.E. if you are looking for negative camber on a car, ts ok, but if you are looking at a car and massive negative camber catches your eye on its own, it's a bit excessive)

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
