What do you guys think about these rims? The local guy is selling them at very good price. I may get them this Saturday.



Wheel 1:



Wheel 2:




Wheel 3:



Wheel 4:

 

This is the seller's car with the rims on.

 

I like the wheels.

 

dew it

 

I should huh?

The owner is selling them for $1200. I'm meeting up with him on Thursday for them.

So

 

I like them.

 

My stock rims weight = 24 lbs

Advan RZ 18x8 weight = 17.6 lbs

I think I'm going to like the feeling.

 

i dont like spokes that bulge out.

 

i'll be waiting for pics

 

Nevermind. I'm getting them on this Saturday!

Would 235/40/18 tires look meaty enough for 18x8 +45 rims? I like those meaty looking tires. Any suggestions on the tire size?

 

Advans ftw! Those are hawt!

235s would look great on a 8" wheel.

 

+1, Advans FTW.

:doit:

 

Thanks!

Yeah, I think I'm going to get 235/40/18. BUT I'm thinking of putting on my stock tires (225/40/18) and wear them out. It still has a lot of thread left on them, so I'm going to try to use them before getting the good tires.

Thanks Anil.

I'm getting them on this Saturday for sure. Already made an arrangement with the seller. We are going to meet up in the middle to do the transaction.

So excited!!!

 

Looking forward to pics!

 

pretty nice!

 

Damn lucky dude!

I would love to have a set of Advan F15's or T5's for the Avant.

 

I love that color! In for pics!

 

Lovin it, plus your car is black then just get a slight drop and boom golden!

 

Duh dude.

Do it.

Love seeing MS3s on something other than RPF1s or similar.

 

not bad

 

Advan F115 on A4 Avant

Drop will come probably during this summer.

Swift Springs

I initially wanted RPF1s too

 

^like those green ones you posted in my thread

 

Dont get me wrong, love the RPF1...its just really common.

Its the go to wheel, but for a reason. Super light, cheap and durable.

 

Dude, I do have this weird fetish for those hyper green wide rims.

Yep.

I actually wanted to go with RPF1 17x9 because of the cheaper tire pricing, but I figured I only drive 7000 miles per year.... so I thought it's pretty stupid for me to concern about tire pricing.

 

So I brought these home today.

 

beautiful wheels! ahhhhhh, the jealously running through my veins lmao.

Can't wait to see those bad boys on!

 

Thanks!

I can't wait to put them on my car. I'll try to get them mounted tomorrow

 

Those look...oh, I don't know...just a little bit............................................... .................................................. .................................................. .AWESOME!

Can't wait to see them on the car!

 

Wow, you have a nice place hyung. What wheels?

 

As someone else said on FB, those are gonna be some nice coffee tables.

 

Yes, I bought 4 coffee tables.

 

I actually have a question for you guys.

How do you cleanly take off these stickers inside the rim? Any good method for them?

 

Peal them off as best you can and use Goo Gone to remove any adhesive?

 

After seeing the Ferrari Coffee table and hearing your friend's comment I'm considering turning the damaged B18C1 block that's in my garage into a coffee table.

Found this link, and he recommends goo gone as the least aggresive method first to avoid damaging the wheel.

 

That's what I was trying to remember! Thanks Anil!

 

Perfect!

 

nice wheels, I'd love to get a set of those for myself. Just rocking RX-8 stockers right now, with plans to get them pcd' when the tires need replacing.

 

that friend is me...





it could also be awesome ornaments. lol what tires you deciding to get?

 

Didn't know it was you.
