anybody put spoke wire rims on there ride.....those would be the only wheels id put on mine...

:shock: Dont take us back to those days, I can just see it now. :oops: Even the big dogs run with fat chrome wheels dont you know? Wire Wheels are so 1990's.

so tired of seeing the same rims though.....id want some 18 inch 150 spoke wires under my box...

That is true. To be different you cant skimp on cost. So are you getting some Daytons or some knock offs?

gotta be careful when using the tern "knock offs" when talking about wire wheels... Not sure if you've ever had one, but old jags and MGs that came with "knock off" wire rims was a good thing. you see, in terms of wire rims, "knock off" refers to how the wheel is secured to the vehicle, knock offs use a bit "spinner" vice lugs to hold on the wheel... basically imagine a threaded hub... that's it, that's all that holds em on.... they come with a special hammer to put them on and off.... Daytons are pretty nice, but what I would get if I got wire rims is the "spinners" I think that the spinners are usually dorky, but with wires.... :shock: definitely get's my attention

I see. LOL thats what our 89 Buick came with then. A knock of hub cap. :shock:. I was just using the term as some no name brand that is cheap. Also didnt know they had spinner wires, that would be insane :roll:

true knock offs all though they look great arent the best thing imo for a daily driver.

Wow!! That looks suprisingly good :shock:

how come there not good for daily drivers????

I would put some daytons if oyu want wires. 13x7 with white walls if you XB is blk. Guys tell me my car look like a car out of dick tracy movies and looks gangster. So Wires would blow some minds.

oh and the 13s fit too my friends, got me some 13x7.5 coming in jan, no not wire track wheels, 5 spoke vpd's 25 offset and they just bairly clear the brake calipers

yea sorry to mention that .. ive seen the lowrider xB in person when it came to htown for our expo we had... my bad. an i like how the paint an rims came out but the interior didnt really go wit it an the airride was nice... i was lookin for daily drivers who have wire rims.

where can you get daytons for aFWD car. I was talking to abody shop in frederick MD and they said that no wheel company makes 18 inch fwd wire wheels. if you know where i can find them please pm me. but other wise i dont think they are made like that

they might be custom

yea they have them look in the lowrider mags... im a lowrider enthusiast but i wanna see if anyone has wire rims on their box? not photoshoped.. but a daily driver? if not i guess ill be 1 of a few who sport the rim... an spinners? anyone wit spinner rims out there? post up wit pics if u can?

someone with wire wheels now, how do they work are they all screw on? What happans if you spinn the wheels in Reverse? Does it change the handling?

And where should i find some?

thanks

i rather find some, i think its like 72 or 74 spoke wire wheels

oh and the 13s fit too my friends, got me some 13x7.5 coming in jan, no not wire track wheels, 5 spoke vpd's 25 offset and they just bairly clear the brake calipers

I have 13s too, people like the different look. What are vpd rims and how do they look like?

There was a BSP xB from Strictly Scions, from the central valley, that was running wires at last yer's Scion Night at Marine World.

i still cant find anyone who has any kind of lowrider type wires out there besides the lowrider scion?
