View Full Version : Opinion on Rims - Photoshop Request
TC_kirk 03-18-2005, 05:41 PM I have been looking for a nice clean 7 or 8 spoke wheel for my IIP tC. I did like the Scion option Enkei EMX Super 7's but want to find something cheaper. I'm thinking 18"s Hyper Silver. Not sure about the gunmetal but you COULD convince me.
Could you tell me what you think of these and possibly photoshop them on an IIP.

hal9000 03-20-2005, 12:20 AM going from the styles in your pictures you may like the Sidewinder from G-games by Rays..Discount Tire Direct has them..they're a 10 spoke like the Rota and look a little cleaner than the ADR's since the extra bolt holes aren't completely drilled...they're the same size and offset as the ADR's...you can also search for GReddy tC SEMA to find pics of them on a tC..
TC_kirk 03-20-2005, 01:52 PM good info. thanks hal9000.
wrx_brad 03-20-2005, 03:45 PM I hear Rays Engineering makes sweet wheels. ;)
TC_kirk 03-20-2005, 04:21 PM find me Ray's for under $200 a wheel and I might look in to it.
Audicted 03-20-2005, 05:29 PM IF you're looking for ADRs, there's a bunch on ebay
Audicted 03-20-2005, 05:35 PM while not 7-8 spokes, I like this clean, european look (seen it on many Audis)

Audicted 03-20-2005, 05:49 PM Of course, if you can find it, I'd look into getting 7-spokes in these styles (I wish I could have found them before getting my wheels)
PS. Yes I know they are BMW and Benz wheels

TC_kirk 03-20-2005, 09:00 PM thanks for all the help. no clue if i'll ever make a decision. seems like the 7 spoke is what i want though.
Audicted 03-20-2005, 09:16 PM I Hear yea, 7 spokes are great, but hard to come by. Good luck and hope you won't end up settling on a 5-spokes like me =)
hal9000 03-21-2005, 01:53 AM i figured the G-games were a little more money than you wanted to spend...if you're looking for a clean 7 spoke under $200 a wheel www.wheelsdirectonline.com has some nice Nakayama X7's for $170 a piece..think the 18" package w/Hankook's was around $1,100 shipped.
Shoof 03-21-2005, 12:48 PM You do know that Ronal is made by BBS, right?
Audicted 03-21-2005, 02:41 PM and both make quite a few OEM wheels for Audi, Volkswagen, and several other European car manufacturers
TC_kirk 03-21-2005, 11:29 PM Nakayama's look REAL good hal. Now that I've looked around so much more Ionly want the 7 spoke. And now I notice the little things that make and break the look for me.
Here are my refined choices:
