what does it matter how heavy the rims are on these slammed assss cars? its not like you can drive half of them fast as fuck on a normal road.

Unless your worried about mpg....

But again, I imagine these low ass cars with hella camber dont drive alot on a dd basis, or even drive fast at all.


correct me if im wrong..

love the pics tho, more!

any more z3s?

Well I'm one of those "function" nutswingers, so I'll actually take a slightly uglier wheel over another wheel if its a bit lighter. For instance, I was never crazy about them Spoon wheels Honda guys love, but the knock off Rota Slipstreams were very light and very cheap, so I went with it. Plus, you cant go wrong with gunmetal wheel and polished lip.

I think Spoon Sw388 (iirc?) and the Desomonds were actually clean because they were one color/basic. Once you started doing polished lips on a wheel that isn't even designed to have a seperate "lip", it gets a little weird.

I'd say that I drive spiritedly very often, you can ask Longfellow. Not to mention on a daily basis. Not saying its the lowest car driven, but being able to pick up road reflectors is pretty low. I see where you're trying to go with this but you're grouping everyone together, which is narrow minded.

I approve this message.

Also, heavy wheels/tires put more stress on the suspension componets, wheel bearings, axles, clutchs etc etc.
