Thanks,
Might consider the 15x8 0+ at some stage.. $450 a pair delivered is pretty hard to beat! |

They have the look pretty good for a one piece wheel. A lot of this style of thing look over 'thick' around the barrel (rotas, those 8 spoke sportmaxx things) due to being cast not rolled, but these pull it off ok.
One piece cast mesh isn't the end of the world anyway, Enkei did it, cheap SSRs have been made like that, Hotwires....list goes on. |

thats sooooo true. theres a thread on ae86 club with most of the guys shit bagging them, i woulnt own them, theyll bend easy, blah blah blah.
i had a set on the back of the supra, drifted QR, Stanthore, Archy, parklands, dirt droped, hit ripple strips, changed the tyres my self on them and when i got rid of them they were still stright.
i think (not reading into it for a few weeks) XXR (sports max) bought out a companie AXIS? or its a sub brand of theres? either way.
pretty sweet rims, i like the hayshi street copys but now theres a cheep alternative the exclusiveness of owning the ligit ones will be out the window.
prob a good thing since they will make the OG ones alot cheeper.
for drifting there fine, looks you could do better, price cant be beat.
and most 86/ke70 guys only put wheels on while the car is in the garage so it shouldnt matter if they buckley/crack or not since the car never gets driven anyway. |

If the bank man says yes to my loan I'm gonna pay my $1k of fines, buy a set of these in the 15x8 +-0, a set of 195/50s and rock them on the Scorpion, stock ride height notwithstanding. Then shall be rego, then chopped Falcons to fix the ride height problems  |

I am one of the people that hate these rims.
Cheap china, and it shows.. Made from coke cans.
There was also a discussion on AE86DC about wheels are made... No research goes into these... They just roughly copy and pump them out for civics and ke70's. |

I dont like these rims.
But i due to price and avaliability, i can see why people who wanna look cool get them.
I know its off topic, but what does you guys think of TE37Vs? They seemd to have been kinda popular at TAS this year. |

fairly good for copies but fail as they're one piece non flippable
i'd run em if i wanted brand new rims, just may not suit every ones need for rear dish  |
