What do you guys think of this 17" wheel?
Below is a photochop of it on the car with the centerpiece and without it (try not to get distracted and just give me an opinion of the wheel :grin: ) Thanks...

They're a classic scoob wheel and look good on subtle cars.
It's also a full-on motorsport wheel, which I can respect - Team Dynamics does nice work. I can think of a few really nice BD's that have rocked those exact rims over the years.

1) I like it with the center cap installed
2) You photoshopped it into what I think is more a 16" size. I would think 17 would be larger than that? And would look good.

I...would pick one hose color and stick with that :wink:
Otherwise...wheel is a classic design, color is decent with red...it's a solid choice. Not really something on the top of my list, but I have weird aesthetics to begin with.

I'm not a huge fan, I think a 5-spoke design would be better.

Oh wow sounds awesome!! Im sure she would be interested!! she doesnt have an SL-I account so why dont I just give you her number, name, age, address, and favorite snack food... I think that would make contacting her easier.
I can have those wheels for $400 shipped... I'm really tempted now, but I have to decide by tonight. I should probably get some struts first though... mine are shot.

Why would you be interested in her? According to your avatar it likes like you are into playing with balls.

Thanks for the comments guys (those related to the wheels and those not) :lol:

Yeah, I always thought some nice 5-spokes would look best (i love the enkei rp-03, but theyre way too pricey)... so after some searching, i came across the kazera kz-b... and this is what that looks like in a 17"

i think that looks really sweet... agree or no?

I can barely concetrate on the wheels, but I like the 1st set better. It has that classic rally look to it.

I've really taken a liking to how BL/BP LGT wheels look on BD/BG's.

turns out the 5-spoke kazera were a TireRack home-brand and are discontinued :mad:

So what do you guys think of this... I always thought white rims would look too ricey, but i think it looks pretty good. too ricey?
(i wouldnt necessarily get these, i hate the dual bolt pattern.. too many holes, but this is just to see what white rims look like in general)

In my opinion, these look too ricey, get something dark to go with the red better, the white and red just clash really badly.

Bummer. They wouldn't ship you a mis-matched color set for less and then you could repaint them?
shizznats
06-26-2008, 08:58 AM
nope... although their website says they have a few left, i called and they have 0 left and won't be making anymore. so my only hope of gettings those is forums, ebay, or craigslist.

the contact number on kazera's site is the number to tirerack, lol. it was tire rack who made the brand and the wheels so they were the only ones selling them.
