trade rims?

[justanotheradikt]

my friend is parting out his civic....he has a set of falken hanabi bronze rims with BRAND NEW azenis on them....long story short (selling between 3 parties) i could pretty much trade my rota c-8's (with no tires on them) for those hanabi's with the azenis. you guys think i should do it? heres some pics of both. on the left is the rota rims and on the right are the faulken rims.

that might be kool looking -- and you get some tires

 

[justanotheradikt]

thats what i was thinking.....

IMO those rims r ugly, stick to the ones u already have

I think the trade sounds pretty good for you. Cant somebody "photochop" them on for you so you can see what they will look like? They have a little bit of a lip on those new wheels and I prefer that. Good Luck!

imo I hate those rims, but I havent seen them in person or on a car for that fact so they might look alright, they just don't look right, they look like something from American Racing available at Pepboys

Why does everybody get so uptight when somebody expresses their opinion?
he did ask what WE thought!

.... you guys think i should do it? ...

you think he should go for it, thats fine, just say that, i think they are ugly so i said that and gave what they reminded me of. i am thrilled you like your rims, and i like your rims too, but your rims dont look like a set of truck rims from like '95, which in my opinion is what most american racing rims look like, especially available at pep boys.

btw: shane02pro5, are you turboed?

Sorry, I just meant there must have been a reason for the wheel pick in the first place. Actually I made a mistake it's American Eagle or Eagle Alloy that mine are made by.

Yes Turbo, check the pick. Hiboost @9.5psi.

Thanks alot man. I was very nervous about the $3800 and voiding my warranty completely at 24k but there has never been anything more worth the money. (shocked)

I get around $5k every year for income tax with raising my 2 sons by myself. Sorry kids the swimming pool is going to have to wait until next year. Daddy has his priorities.

Hell yeah, they will appreciate it later. One of my buddies here, Prodigy, his little brother is eleven and can drive a stick like a pro, he's been driving since he was ten, thats just crazy, I didn't learn how to drive a stick til I was about 22! he's kicking my ass.

ok back to topic, IMO those rims are fugly, but I have never seen them on a car, only in pictures like the one provided, so they might be alright, I just think Falken coulda done better.

 

[justanotheradikt]

they end up looking pretty on my car....but one thing i dont like about them is the fact that on one side the spokes point one way and on the other side they point the other way....might just buy the tires off him.

dont know if im not reading this right or what so ill just wong it....


if you are trading the silver looking rims for the bronze 1's.....i say go for i like the bronze ones....

but if you are trading the bronze 1's for the silver 1's NO DONT DO it keep the bronze 1's....

but if you do trade.....make sure you get the tires with the rims....
