Question Rims questions

Hello there ,


I'm realy interested in solving some question that have been bothering me for a while , If you can please help me with some answers it would be a great savior for me as I plan helping you guys in the future.

Here we go:

1. Where do you buy rims?(Local custum rims shop / Internet)

2. How much do you spend on your rims?

3. Does a brand name or country of production matters?


That's all , It's not any adversment or such things It's just for informative reasons and it might be fun as well ;P

1. check wheelsnext.com free shipping and comes with tires

2. prices on that start at like 699.00 with tires shipped for 17s

3. namebrand is good, you know they are quality, but they come with a price tag. if your gunna use it for looks and looks alone knockoffs are good. but they are heavier so expect less mpg

other people doesn't concern the brand name and most rims doesn't have any tags or any identifiers , it's quality that fits for most.

lets say if there were great quality well made outstanding made of china rims in 200USD for pack of 4 , and these rims are same quality like your name brands , would you go buy it or order it throw the internet?

Straight up homie I got respect for all my fellow members, so I won't comment on your thread. But if you looking for wheels just say something, better yet consider these if you are: http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...forsale007.jpg You'll not only be buying some pimpin wheels, you'll be helping a fellow member out.

They look like SSR Schumachers assuming they are infact the real ones, and not one of the 10000s of copies of it.
