Wheels are sick.seen your car when I passed you at arbor place a couple of days ago.
New inner/outer tie rods on passenger side: complete (they were really bad causing me to be all over the road & had 1" of movement, eventually would have broke).... Next is the alignment....
low offset but hellaflush not found!
Know what the difference in a cheap rim and an expensive rim is? available offsets and bolt patterns..... thats usually about it. Most of you wheel police who bitch and moan about wheel quality dont make enough power to break a wagon wheel, yet you want some wheels off a lemans car for some reason. A lot of the wheels you kids fantasize about are replicas themselves. If a replica company makes the size and offset you want..... theres really no reason to buy the real deal unless you just want it. Your car isnt powerful enough to make using a hub ring dangerous. 1% of street cars are. So quit acting like Kim Kardashian when it comes to wheels. You want an opinion, my opinion is that your opinion is bullshit.
makes perfect sense to pay about $2000 more for Rays to plaster their fucking logo all over my rim just so internet kids will give me reps for having them. Another thing thats funny, not all of rays wheels are forged, most volk, gram, advan wheels are cast..... the same as any other wheel. but you can see the difference in the price tag.... OH WAIT!!!! no you cant, they overprice all of em!

Im not arguing your point, has ive had several sets of "knock off" wheels on the many many cars ive had over the years. But i do think its dumb to just spend the absolute least amount of money on the cheapest low offset wheels and then the cheapest tires (nexen are trash) just for the sake of having an absurd fitment thats not even able to be driven comfortably around the crap roads of Atlanta.
Whats funny is i didnt pay shit for these, got them in a trade & i wanted newer wheels/tires & couldnt pass up on these seeing how th wheels i had were rashed, scratched & peeling clear coat not to mention the tires were getting bad, so i think i made a good decision & i made them work on my civic... Atleast im brave enough to be different & according to alot of folks, im pulling it off....
Damn dood calm down. Is the internet that real to you. You post in a public forum and complain when someone voices their opinion. You obviously have some insecurities and doubts about your car.
LULZ
Bravery = Low offset wheels on a Civic.
Never knew that!
Somebodys butthurt lol
Hella stock member!
lolol GREEN91!! whats up
I'm sorry guy. To most educated adults who can read and write, taking approximately 17 seconds to read a 4 line paragraph is not difficult to either read or type. Clearly you struggled with it and for that i apologize. Believe it or not, most people on an internet forum like to exchange a complete thought when they decide to speak to each other. We can still be friends though. You'll find that a good portion of my posts include a picture that is intended to assist the mentally challenged or small children with understanding the point i'm trying to get across.

i feel you, but my issue is simply with people's baseless opinion of "knock off" wheels not being street worthy. The problem with this guys car is more about his wheel/tire selection than him deciding to buy cheap wheels or tires. He could have spent the same money on the same brand wheel and got something more suitable to his vehicle. The low offset look on a 4 door stock civic is like wearing a tuxedo to a sports bar. That's the problem, not choosing XXR or whatever brand of rep wheel.
I'd swap for better tires, but your car is you problem not mine.
lolol @ "Internet Gangsta" btw I'm pretty sure if I read Sinfix_15's post he wasn't insulting you and more so was defending your selection in cheap wheels/tires by pretty much saying it makes more sense than to cough up the extra dough for no reason..... Oh and just so you know, your rep power is equivalent to the number of cylinders in a Geo Metro (Which isn't good or very powerful)
