seriously man.. who cares how much something is.

I knew people would read too much into how I worded that.

I'm not trying to impress anyone, I merely meant its hilarious how people perceive that vossens are so high end vs some real baller ass wheels nobody knows. That's the impressive marketing that Vossen does working for them.

You think someone who cared what people thought would be openly telling people he bought his wheels used like I said I did in my post? Chances are that person would be flexing like they bought them for list price.

Anyway, this topic is dumb, I regret even starting down this path. Think whatever you want about me, if one misguided/misworded post makes you think I am some sort of poser or showoff then I can't help your opinion of me.

No need to make these kind of comments if you don't like vossens!

Looks really good. We work on a lot of siennas and they look nothing like this. Nicely done!

R32 GTR wheels best wheels. Timeless design, forged magnesium, 7kg per rim, and JDM Engrish on the centre cap yo :troll: a set in decent condition can be had for relatively cheap nowadays, but mine are in pristine condition with centre caps still intact!

too bad the everything attached to those wheels is scrap..

happy birthday btw!

@meme405, you know why no one notices your wheels? Because TO ME (and prob many others), they just look like a well maintained set of TSW wheels from surrey. Chrome/high-polished lips with black face is so old school.

There was this cocaine white g35 coupe here with wheels as expensive as yours but the difference was that his actually looked unique and "trendy".

Like someone else said, all depends on the taste of the owner. I shat on the looks of your wheels because you shat on someone else's.

BOYS PLEASE...........WE ALL KNOW ITS ROTAS > ALL :troll:

Objectively speaking... if wheels looks good people will notice.

It doesn't matter how expensive or cheap something is. At the end of the day you only got yourself to please. It's like the clothes you decide to wear. Doesn't matter if it's a $200 t-shirt or a $5 t-shirt if it doesn't look good people won't care to notice.

I'm rocking XXRs... people notice them :fullofwin:

Yeah I saw the Rotas, I prefer the step lips though haha

I didn't like the look of the black flares after dipping the car, so I peeled it off. A little contrast works well for this car, otherwise it looks like a black blob and the wheels would draw too much attention

Trying to give it a bit of an old school vibe, haven't seen anyone else with something similar :accepted:

You mean G-Spec's car? His is off the hook, his DPE's were intense, and I think he now has meisters? Either way great car.

Also the reason I got my wheels was because they were a throw back to another OG FX owner who had the exact same set. So yeah they are oldschool, so no offense taken to anything you've said. I'm not gonna get butthurt over others comments on my car, I've heard it all man.

Also I never shat on the owner's car, I even commented that it looks fantastic, and I have personally spoken to him at the RS meet and told him how awesome it looked (at that time it was on the old wheels). Although he won't know who I was.

Spoiler!

15x7+35 then 20mm spacers. sp 15x7+15

thats about 8"+ 38 if you were to run 8" wheels

i beleive it was 2.5/3 degress camber all around

thats not all that aggressive, i ran 15x9 +36 and 10mm spacers

so almost a full inch further out

Call me old but WT flying F is a 'real baller ass wheel' ?

Staying on topic, I haz LQ VMRs :okay:

Also, I'll be putting new wheels on the Buick very soon. Only one member on this forum knows what wheels they are, lulz

meme405 04-21-2015 09:10 PM

I give up. I'm a huge asshole, sorry poknat, i'll keep my opinion on wheel brands and parts out of this forum forever more.

For the third and final time, your van looks incredible, never let anyone tell you otherwise.

I made a stupid little joke (a la Clarkson) and it blew up in my face.

With that said:

I LOVE VOSSEN, I LOVE ROTA's, I LOVE DPE, I LOVE AG, I WOULD LOVE FUCKING WOODEN CARRIAGE WHEELS IF YOU ARE SO INCLINED TO ROCK THEM.

Round, square, triangular. Stretched, cambered, mexi flush. Whatever floats your boat.

Just END THIS TOPIC HERE. Next person to post about my shitty comments or how big of a dickhead I am, just makes themselves look like the bigger dickhead by dragging this out unnecessarily.

Lowered_Klass 04-21-2015 09:14 PM

Spoiler!


When I see those chrome flares, I'm almost disappointed you're not rolling on a set of wire wheels, and rockin' some serious mexi-poke.

Sigh... takes me back to my high school days, where imports would more often than not get the lowrider treatment, before anything else.

I was skimming and read that completely wrong the first time.

My favorite set of wheels I had! Brooooota RK-R lol


Keeping on topic, searched high and low for an S2000 to not end up with an S2000. Let's just say it was fate! Picked it up last month and struggled with the idea of selling this to get an S2000. Then decided to keep it simply because I fell in love.
