little help please
Friday, May 26, 2006 2:04 AM
ive been beating myself up over choosing some rims for my cavy... ive made a few decisions however

what i want you guys to do is take my specifications and try to help me find some wheels that you think would look good.. even if they dont fit exactly.. then i can try to narrow it down..

going to ebay and searching 18in cavalier is not a good way to narrow anything down... lol


so far i have decided on something gunmetal, black, hyperblack, or dark (no silver, chrome, white, bronze, yellow, etc...)
i have also been more drawn to rims without a huge lip.. some lip is ok i guess, but the big 2 in lips polished i dont like
i cannot however decide on if i want a simple spoke design or a busier design.. i really have no idea

so please just post up a few wheels (WITH PICS) that you might put on my cav if you had the option.. thanks!










also, if u know any good places to search / buy rims post em up please!

thanks

hmm i like those


i think i have decided that i DONT like the many spoke designs.. like anything above a 6 spoke wheel is outa the question


now i have it narrowed down to 6,5 spoke wheels or something more busy and not nessecarily spoked.. or something that has split spokes

so many decisions

are you going more for looks? or for performance? that should help you narrow it down.

some of the lightweight rims are:

5Zigen FN01RC's, like the ones above
SSR Competitions
Black Racing
Motegi Trak Lites

the cheaper ones are going to be the 5Zigens and the Black Racing.

I'd say ADR's then.

Gravana has some nice rims on their site.
