Yummy. What kind are they?

they're ADR's

I've always thought that 17's are the best compromise between looks and performance. 18's or 19's look really good on a lowered car, but they kill acceleration. 15 inch alloys have low rotating mass, but they just don't fill up the wells. And you didn't cheap out -- those wheels look good.

thanks man. and i agree, with 17s you get the best of both worlds. performance and looks

Craigslist is the best for wheels. I paid $300 for my rays in good condition. Wrong color when i got them but whatever. I do need to refinish my wheels. Good pickup though.

damn bro 300 for rays?? sweet. yeah craigslist is great for anything.

nice find. I am the same way. Picking mine up on Friday. Here is my find, yeah they are knock offs but they are clean.

nice find!

rims look sexy bro..cant wait to see the outcome

me neither!

nice pick up!
what are you gonna do with your old wheels?

which old wheels? my CD EXs? or my ITRs? i got rid of my ITRs last month for the CD EXs

dats gangsta...

I hope thats the case,im selling my 19s for 17" subzeros for light weight purposes.

light weight wheels make a whole world or difference. i could actually tell the difference from going from stock wheels to the ITRs and then back to stock.

well either way,i figure the smaller the rim the faster acceleration would be? and of course the weight..

the smaller the rim = light weight?some 16s are still weight same as 17s...soo it all depend on who made or brand... SSR and so forth..you know..just bc it 17s doesnt mean it light ...what material or how they made the rim all fall into weight ...

nice pickup, rims are kinda hard to fix sometimes, if you have a friend and is good with a torch. heat up the rims and rubber mallet the bends into place. thats how we fixed my friend's racing hart c5's

^^ haha i dont think i'm that desparate.. i'm just going to take it to a shop and have it done right. i'm sure heating up a wheel would leave a weak spot and make it even more vulnerable over bumps and holes.

Looking good...but how exactly do you search for rims in the right fitment on craigslist?
Also, how much do these weigh exactly?

you know i took my forged rim to get it repair after my bro cracked one of it on the way back from chinatown...anyways the guy told me he wont touch a forged rim to begin with since there was no point of repairing it bc when i hit another spot it will soon to loosen up the crack and leak air.and he was goin on about different material was used in makin the process and so so..i was like :mad: and he said it if was a cast rim then it be a different story..he will fix it.......:hide:
