Default Picture page: What wheels are you planning to get?

I like the Ronal R-38 and the Ronal LZ. European sporty (seen it on a lot of Audis), but not ricey (Thankfully!)

Ronal R-38








Ronal LZ

Personally I hate Ronal wheels and think they suck, but if you get those R-38s I know you can get that outer lip powdercoated on them by Ronal. I know a guy who got those and his lip is painted green to match his car.

Just a thought.

yeah, a lot of people say that and i can understand why, but i totally swear buy the ways of the lightweight, 3 spoke. if im gonna drop 1g+ into rims, i want something original and eye catching, but still very light.

And what would you suggest? I'm not into the Jappy-ricey wheels, like Momo,SSR, or Enkei. I'm looking for Sporty, European-style wheels

They don't really look european at all....especially the way the center cap is not there like that....look at the European wheels I posted, there's a big difference...these look more Japanese

Sucks for a british company called Team Dynamics ;)

The wheels shipped with the centercap. It's just not in the picture. And who gives a flying poop about centercaps anyway?

Cool thing would be to put Benz wheels on Scion. Yeah, and keep Benz centercap

if you're not into jappy wheels then don't get a jappy car.
momo does have some ricey wheels
enkei has some nice wheels at a good price.
ssr's are the ____, nor riceyness to them at all.

That's why i like the Scion tC, has a more European styling, as oppose to ricey cars like the Celica

You don't have tobe a japanese company to have japanese ricey styling. Also, just because I have photos of Benz on it, doesn't mean I'd like the exact one with the Benz logo on it...that's dumb.

It's the overall styling that matter
