I hate OEM rims. (HONDA Rant)

[RL...]

If someone came to me with a set of Volks that are the correct offset and said i'll sell you these for 250 or you can buy these OE wheels for 250.

I'd take the volks. ofcourse.

But in reality, i'm not gonna spend 2400 on wheels and another grand on tires when i could spend 3400 on coilovers/bigger turbo/forged pistons/etc...

I'm just saying i could get alot more bang for my buck then dropping money on $$$ wheels.

Of course you could but this thread is about wheels, not about getting the best bang for your buck on other mods....so your point is pointless here

If you actually had money then you probably would spend it on volks rather than riding on stock wheels, I mean a big part of modifying cars is to set yours apart from every other on the road...blending in is no fun....

lol wut? maybe in your mind. Well i drive a 1986 Mitsbuishi Starion. So unlike you, I don't have to strive to be different. I modify mine to go faster.

Just cause you don't get my point doesn't make it any less valid, scooter.

The post was about buying OEM wheels vs, buying aftermarket wheels. So I was specifically discussing OEM vs. high-end wheels. And my opinion was for a car that has weird offsets, such as mine, the cost of an aftermarket wheel far outweighs the benefit or joy of having pretty wheels.

I get your point, you didn't get mine, idiot.

The price of buying wheels for your car would be no different than buying them for my car, if if it is, only slightly...But yes I understand you don't care about looks you just want to go fast...in your 24 year old car....you want to go fast...

Are you insinuating a 24 year old car couldn't be made fast? If so that is just another asinine comment to add to your collection.


EP3- I can certainly understand that mentality. If performance on a budget is the idea, then absolutely. However, in your case you aren't judging anyone else for having high end wheels calling them stupid for it, because THAT is what makes it so annoying ya know? Why should the guy who can't afford my wheels/car have any say about my wheels/car? He obviously couldn't even do things well enough to have the option to do what I have, therefore why should his opinion of my choices matter? See what I'm sayin?

oooh okay. yeah yeah. agreed. well put

BTW. if i came upon a set of starion wheels, which i never do, i would prolly have to get them b/c they are one of the coolest OEMs ever on any car IMO. One of my favorite classics.

I was not insinuating anything. You assumed I meant that. A car can be made fast regardless of it's age.

Stop assuming things...

So unlike you, I don't have to strive to be different..

I bet you strive to keep it running.

LOL !
