View Full Version : Sporty? or Blingage?
ShadowMage 02-10-2004, 02:23 PM Man...I just can't seem to make up my mind. :lol: I used to not like chrome wheels all that much...but since hanging out here I've come to love the look of chrome Lowenhart LD1's. haha BUT I also like the look of the Work Meister S1's....AND I like the look of the new Falken Hanabi's...So I figured I'd post a poll to see what others think would look nice. Maybe it'll help me decide in the end. :roll: :lol:
Option 1:
Falken Hanabi's in Bronze 17x7.5 with +32 offset

Option 2:
Work Meister S1 1 Pieces in Bronze 17x7.5 with +25 offset (also would like to note that these are no longer regular production items...so it'll take longer to get'em)

Option 3:
Lowenhart LD1 knockoffs (yeah I know...but seeing as how the LD1's go for $800 a piece I just can't justify that...) in Chrome 17x7 with +42 offset

Anyway...all opinions are welcomed! :) Please help a nerd decide. :lol:
BlackScionara 02-10-2004, 02:45 PM please no bling bling....i think simple chrome rims would look ok on these, but not the big lowdogs....
Munch 02-10-2004, 02:59 PM please no bling bling....i think simple chrome rims would look ok on these, but not the big lowdogs....
I agree stay away from the big chrome wheels
Djuan 02-10-2004, 03:01 PM Option 2 looks great... what color is your scion... is it an xA or xB... ?
HotBox 02-10-2004, 03:13 PM read his sig its in there *no sarcasism intended* its gunna be a white xB
i like option 1 and 2 if you have the chance sell a left nut and get the HRE's
as for option 2 theyre ok not all that but any one of those colors will look good on a white xb
ShadowMage 02-10-2004, 04:08 PM hehe yeah it'll be a white (unfortunately I don't have it yet...don't know when I'll be able to get it at the present :( )...considering the silver but only out of fear of scratches and paint chips showing up a little worse on white. Anyway, I don't want big chrome wheels (wouldn't even really consider it hehe) I'm sticking with the 17 inch size no matter the rim I get.
MrSmiley 02-10-2004, 05:12 PM I'd say option 2 in bronze ...
BTW ... nice Better off Dead line in your sig .. here's another for ya
Listen Lane, I've been going to this school for seven years, I'm no dummy....
Djuan 02-10-2004, 05:19 PM damn you HotBox! If that is your real name... ? You San Antonio guys and the way you actually read the sig... hahahahahaha, yeah my monkey arse, I just was concentrating on the rims, when I saw the Works, I was like thats the one !!!
ShadowMage 02-10-2004, 06:20 PM I'd say option 2 in bronze ...

showpaojoe 02-10-2004, 11:56 PM I notice that everytime
#2 but not in bronze, the metal look is sweet. and if your serious about a scion you'd buy them before the car came
ShadowMage 02-11-2004, 12:55 AM I notice that everytime

believe me I'm serious...if I had the money I'd start buying stuff for it now but I can't at the moment. Right now I'm just making preliminary plans...to but it bluntly I have no job. If I had money coming in it would be less of an issue. But anyway...
So why not bronze? Don't like the look?
showpaojoe 02-11-2004, 01:04 AM i was just saying that because there are a couple peeps i know who bought stuff for a scion and have it on order. i just don't want you to have a scion and then have to wait 2 months for wheels like some people here including myself.
sometimes you don't know what kind of bronze your gettin. i don't know what it is but you can get a real ugly color sometimes. but hey, they are works
ShadowMage 02-11-2004, 01:13 AM hehe yeah I understand...thanks for the concern. But at present, like I said, I don't really have any options. But it's all good! :D
As far as color goes...yeah I see your point...hehe but that's one of the risks you take in life. :wink: :lol: An expensive risk but a risk none the less.
Anyway, first things first...must have income!
its_ikon 02-11-2004, 01:50 AM the first one has a different look then what i have been seeing and i like it.
westsype 02-11-2004, 01:57 AM Number 2 for me but everyone has some type of 5 spoke rims so number 1 if you want to change it up a little bit.
highend 02-11-2004, 02:02 AM Option 1 for sure... or a decent knock-off if you can find one.
Alter_Ego 02-11-2004, 05:38 AM 1 or 2, # 1 is different and nice looking.

ShadowMage 02-12-2004, 03:37 AM hehe Well thanks for all the comments guys! Keep'em comin'! I'm pretty well decided on which one to get...kind of. :lol: And I got to thinking...if I get chrome, those are gonna be a butt to keep clean! I mean...I'll hafta clean'em a lot to keep'em looking nice, no? They look cool but I think I'll go for lower maintenance ones. :wink:
